The hand picked fruit for our Pinot Noir was sourced from the Kuitpo region of the Adelaide Hills. After picking, the Pinot was 25% whole bunch fermented with the balance crushed and destemmed across a selection of four clones. A natural yeast fermentation proceeded over a period of two weeks before pressing and transferring to French oak barriques of which one third were new. Maturation was over the course of 11 months with a single racking. The wine was bottled in March 2023 unfined and unfiltered.

Tasting Notes

Mid red in colour with a hint of crimson to the hue. The nose provides elegant cherry and strawberry fruits accompanied by savoury notes and a dash of toasty oak. The light-bodied palate offers delicate forest fruits intermingled with cinnamon, dried herb and mocha accents. Best from 2024 to 2028.
