2024 Pinot Noir
2024 Pinot Noir
This wine is a blend of seven vineyards on the Mornington Peninsula and comprises of seven clones across the sub-regions of Tuerong, Main Ridge, Shoreham, Red Hill, Merricks and Flinders.
Red fruits dominate the vibrant nose with some Turkish delight and twiggy spices. The palate is rich with red and blue fruit that moves through the fine-grained tannins, finishing with some spice.
Fruit comes off seven sites across the peninsula, some of which make up the single-vineyard wines, and this very much the sum of its parts. It’s excellent. Aromatic, enticing, savoury and spicy, full of cherries and pips, Middle Eastern spices, a hint of mint and just a skerrick of oak. Medium bodied, laced with supple tannins and mouth-watering acidity. It fits the bill perfectly for a drink-now pinot.
