- Rich and soft with vibrant, plush flavours of juicy cherries, pomegranate, and a savoury and spicy lift. Cool-climate Pinot in a silky, approachable style. 2021 was an excellent vintage. The cooler growing season, with perfect day and night temperatures, allowed for a lovely natural balance in the fruit. No manipulation from the vineyard crew was required: these vintages produce some of the best fruit the vineyard has seen.

This wine was made in a soft and approachable style. The grapes were fermented in a combination of Potter, Roto, and open fermenters at controlled temperatures using selected yeasts to retain the purity and freshness of the cool-climate fruit. Following fermentation, the wine was matured in stainless steel tanks to maintain the pure Pinot Noir characteristics.

Winery | Situated just 45 kilometres east of Melbourne, the Yarra Valley is a large and diverse cool-climate wine region. Its elevation spectacularly ranges from lows of 50m to heights of 1,250m due to the influence of the Great Dividing Range. The region is characterized by significant rainfall during winter and spring, which helps to nourish the vines throughout the dry but cool summers. The estate-grown Pinot Noir vines are between 15 and 25 years old and are planted in vineyards in Yarra Glen, Yering, and Coldstream. Additional grower fruit comes from a very cold site in Mount Alexander. The vines are clones D-Clone and MV6, cane pruned, and VSP trained, which suits the terroir of Duplex grey loam over yellow clay. The cooler site allows for excellent diurnal temperature shifts, which imbues the fruit with intense aromatics and natural, refreshing acidity. |
