Region: South Australia
Grape Variety: 100% Pinot Noir
Winemaker: Corey Ryan
Vineyards:
Sourced mainly from low yielding vineyards near Mount Gambier in the east of the limestone coast wine region. The higher altitude aspect and cool evening temperatures combine to ensure the retention of natural acidity in the elegant fruit harvested whilst the long, slow ripening ensures excellent flavour development.
Sản xuất:
Partially hand before de-stemming and fermentation in a combination of two tonne open fermenters with ten percent whole bunch and twice daily hand plunging and larger closed fermenters with pump overs. All components blended post fermentation before three quarters were matured in stainless steel and one quarter was matured in French oak for four months before bottling with minimal fining, filtration and sulphur addition.
Vintage 2024:
A cooler than average growing season, frost, the lack of rain and poor weather during flowering including strong winds throughout November and December resulted in lower yields however, the dry and consistent weather during picking resulted in a vintage of high-quality fruit.
Tasting Note: This wine displays a delicate crimson hue, offering inviting aromas of plum and cherry, layered with a touch of savoury complexity and well-integrated oak.
The palate is vibrant, showcasing a core of smooth red berry flavours, elevated by intriguing hints of spice. Bright acidity and refined tannins give structure to its extended finish.
Perfectly paired with Porchetta on a bed of baby lentils.
