Our Woods Hill vineyard, planted in 1987, sits directly across Tregarthen Rd from Ashton Hills in the Piccadilly Valley. Although the site is only meters away from our estate vineyard, the characters produced from the Woods Hill vineyard are entirely different due to a slightly lower elevation, opposite row orientation and gentle east facing aspect. Each section of Pinot Noir is planted to the D5V12 clone and are all harvested individually and kept separate during vinification.

Bouquet
Ripe satsuma plum, blackberry and dark cherry feature with a splash of cardamom and smoked, charry meats.

Palate
A burst of dark fruits ignite the soft and supple palate which finishes with a complex mix of damp soil, mushrooms and cedar spice. Beautifully ripe tannins and fine grained French oak guide the wine across the palate providing a long and textured finish.

Growing Conditions
The Piccadilly Valley was impacted by cool weather during flowering, resulting in reduced volumes for the 2024 vintage. A wetter than average December and January made way for a warm and dry February with excellent conditions for ripening. Consecutive hot days in the second week of March accelerated things and harvest was completed by March 16.

“A single-vineyard wine, from a site planted in ‘87 ‘across the road’. A distinctly dark-fruited, sweet spiced, cumin and cardamom-laced pinot noir of savoury nature with a touch of fruitiness. Soft texture, a wash of lacy tannin, a dry, truffle-and-earth finish. A compelling expression for its distinct, original nature, and a wine to contemplate in glass.”

"The premier release of this wine. Perfumed and precise, with aromas of red cherries, potpourri, dried strawberries, mushrooms, pomegranates, cranberries and crushed stones. The palate is mid-weighted and plush, with fruit density that is pure and driven, supported by fine tannins, a minerally, earth-driven edge and a touch of umami. Very well constructed. Drink or hold. Screw cap."
