Light cherry red in colour. Cherry and raspberry together with a jubey confectionery note on the nose and palate. On the palate “bigger” than your normal Yarra Valley Pinot. Winemaking Notes: 10% whole bunch, partially de-stemmed - a portion foot stomped. Open fermenters - matured for 12 months in old oak. Indigenous yeast; No filtration, no fining.

Another impressive one from an exciting producer. Second pick of the range, very similar in style to the other two. Great expresions of their multi sub-regional Pinot vineyards
