About this Wine

Deep burgundy in colour with a garnet hue. Intensely fruited aromas of pomegranate cranberry and dark cherry leap from the glass the fruit almost verges into blue fruits before notes of exotic spice and touches of earth reveal themselves. There is a background element of oak that is intricately woven into the fruit never dominating. The palate is finally detailed a generous core of powerful fruit is complemented by a velvet line of tannin. There is vibrancy here from carefully managed acidity which provides seamless length. A subtle textural element from time on lees that adds yet another dimension. Classic Yarra Valley Pinot Noir from an excellent vintage sourced from a great site.

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.
