Mornington Peninsula, Port Phillip

Ten Minutes by Tractor

McCutcheon Vineyard Pinot Noir 2015

See previous Delectable notes. Light to medium crimson in colour - a tawny rim developing. Aromas of Sous Bois, compost heap and stewed fruits. As I said in a previous note “sinewy “. Savoury red fruits and earthy. Judd vineyard seems to be the pick of the individual Pinot Noir Cuvées at Ten Minutes by Tractor. — 5 months ago

Half Acre Mornington Peninsula Pinot Noir 2003

Magnificent. Has gained weight with age while retaining the gorgeous fruit and brambly spice. Nat White is a genius. — a year ago

Yabby Lake Vineyard

Single Block Release Block 1 Mornington Peninsula Pinot Noir 2012

Pale to Mid Crimson in colour. Red cherry and a tarry note . 80% whole bunch in the ferment. On the palate red and black cherry (flesh and skins). A fuller style - medium weight + palate. Mornington Peninsula is very good for Pinot Noir and this was the first Pinot to win the prestigious Jimmy Watson Trophy for Best One Year old Dry Red at the Royal Melbourne Wine Show. Delectable this is the Single Block Pinot Noir not the Syrah. — 4 years ago

Mornington Peninsula Pinot Noir 2019

I’m a fussy one with Pinot. It should not come from Western Australia IMO. Clones or climate, prob both. This from the Mornington Peninsula is everything I want. Lower alcohol, rose petals, violets, no confection, some spices. It went really well with a Chicken Biryani. I’ve always loved their Chardonnay and now I’m late to their Pinot Show but loving this immensely. 2019.

(And then I remember that Batista Estate Angelina Pinot is a doll. From WA) 🩷

Garagiste

Le Stagiaire Pinot Noir 2018

A new producer to me as in Garagiste from the Mornington Peninsula. Light to medium Ruby. Aromatic red fruits of Strawberry and Cranberry with a stalky whole bunch note. Fresh and young. Light in colour but medium intensity with medium dry tannins. Great QPR at $25 a bottle. Not for long keeping I would say. Had another one 71 weeks later on 17th November 2021 with consistent notes. Excellent value. — 4 years ago

Kooyong

Clonale Chardonnay 2018

Very brief note. I love Mornington Peninsula Chardonnay and Pinot Noir - particularly this cheapie from credentialed producer, Kooyong. Restrained stone fruit aromas with well balanced oak. Only $24AUD wonderful QPR. Drink the last one later this year or early next year. — 8 months ago
