TASTING NOTES

Medium bodied in style, the nose displays sour dark cherry and dark plums. Well balanced with both power and finesse. Drinking incredibly well, but will reward with cellaring.

WINEMAKING

100% handpicked on 5 March 2018. Matured in seasoned French oak barriques & hogs heads, with wild malolactic fermentation. Made with 20% whole bunches and a few other secret, “left-field” techniques, Hand bottled by gravity, without fining or filtration on 6 December 2018.

Estate Blend

Blend of our two estates. 75% Home Block, 25% Melba Block Home Block Vineyard, Pinot Noir block. Situated at 230m above sea level, the Pinot Noir was planted in the early 1980’s on an undulating, east facing slope on friable grey loam soils. Completely unirrigated and hand nurtured.
