95 POINT RATED NED GOODWIN MW HALLIDAY WINE COMPANION CERTIFIED ORGANIC COOL CLIMATE PINOT NOIR
Using the finest fruit from the select blocks at our vineyard in Yarra Glen, this wine has deep fruit flavours, fine tannin and the silky-smooth palate we expect of Yarra Valley Pinot Noir.
95 Point Rated - Ned Goodwin Mw Halliday Wine Companion
A light ruby, beaming vivid aromas of strawberry, mulch, Asian spice, red and black cherry and sarsaparilla. Loads of flavour. Rich, even, but far from a loosely knit wine. There is an undercarriage of well massaged tannins across grape, stem and oak, corralling it all into a sheath of sapid intensity and full barrelled length. Very good.
The 2017 Yarra Valley season was one out of the box - just enough and not too much of everything. The moderate season allowed the vines to ripen slowly, building great depth of flavour while retaining fine balance in sugar and acid. Harvest began in early-March, a little later than the long-term average and somewhat of a relief after the record-early vintage of 2016. This is a vintage in which the true personality of the vineyard takes centre stage.
The fruit was handpicked and sorted before vinification in open fermenters with hand plunging. The wine was matured for 11 months in a mix of new and seasoned French oak barrels from a selection of Burgundian coopers.
