About this Wine

93 POINTS - Wine Pilot, Shanteh Wale
"What an attractively perfumed wine. These are my first and final thoughts. Lavender, lilac, Bing cherries and Alpine strawberries. Whole bunch shows in fresh bay leaf, bramble and boysenberry leaf. Granite, tar and allspice coming through close behind. A chew to the fine tannins and lingering, driving acidity. Anthony Fikkers handles bunch work like a champion, not shying away but confidently working with a feature that adds depth and dimension to his wines. A slurp of nutmeg and black peppercorn on the finish. A self assured Pinot Noir at the right price. Drink now and will cellar 2-4 years. Serve beside pulled pork pizza eaten straight from the box, standing in the kitchen, life’s too short to wait. Points:" 29 April 2024

Aroma
Aromatics of blood plum, ironstone, thyme, and pomegranate.

Palate
It has a well structured, but also subtle palate; the intensity of the vintage can easily be seen but there's also an elegance that Pinot Noir does so well. Additional flavours of morello cherry and Campari, and silky tannis from both skin and stalk make this a very complex wine.

Vintage Notes
Vintage 2022 will long be remembered for its meagre quantity and exceptional quality. Poor Spring time conditions (wet and windy) over two years led to a small number of bunches and then quite poor fruit set which resulted in tiny bunches of grapes (not many tiny bunches = not much crop). The low crops however, ripened perfectly and harvest started on 2nd March.

Yarra Valley Wine

The Yarra Valley wine region is the most important area of wine production in Victoria today, and with its proximity to Melbourne, also the most visited in the state.

Yarra Valley is split into the Upper Yarra and the valley floor. The Upper Yarra is cooler in climate due to its elevation and coupled with younger, fertile, red soils produces most of the region’s notable varietals: Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. The valley floor is warmer and has predominantly grey soils with pockets of granite and limestone.

Pinot noir has long been considered a notoriously difficult variety to grow. However, the cool climate and longer growing seasons of the Yarra Valley allow the fruit to develop full flavoured and ripe character.

Chardonnay in the past has long been associated with a deep oily, buttery style that experiences full malolactic fermentation and great amounts of oak. This style has since fallen out of favour and wine makers in the Yarra Valley have capitalized on this trend to produce leaner, acid driven Chardonnays that are closer in style to those from Burgundy.
