From their single-vineyard site in Bendigo. 50% Clone 5, 41% Clone 777 and 9% Abel, with a small amount of whole bunch in the ferments. The top-level Pinot Noir from this producer. A deep ruby/burgundy colour in the glass. An inviting and complex scent of ripe red berries, cherry, pomegranate, layered with herbs, spices, wood smoke and lilac florals. Take your time as the wine unwinds and produces savoury, mineral and floral flavours to match the juicy fruits. Dry, with long and supple tannins matched to that toasty oak, and a bright zing of acidity. A lot packed in to one glass. The finish has a minerality and widens across the palate, with super length. 95pts
