- Description
The Estate Pinot Noir is sourced from our five preferred clones on the estate. The 2022 blend comprises of clones 777 (36%), Martini (32%) D5V12 (16%), MV6 (8%) and 828 (8%).
- Bouquet
Rhubarb, fresh strawberry, raspberry compote with underlying beetroot and wet earth. The aromatics are perfumed and delicate.
- Palate
The vibrant palate is dominated by strawberry and plum with hints of wet earth and spice in the background. A defined acid line and fine tannins provide a tight, structured palate that finishes with a dusting of soft, charry oak.
- Growing Conditions
Reduced yields from the 2022 harvest were the result of poor fruit set due to a cold spring. This turned out to be a blessing, with a cool summer pushing the majority of our harvest into the last week of March and early April. Ripening of the small berries and bunches was long and slow which has resulted in wines with intense colour, flavour, concentration and structure.
- Food Pairing
Pork Belly with orange and fennel salad.

Professional Reviews
“Medium-light red-purple, good youthful hue if a touch pale; unusual metallic overtones, rusty nails, even a hint of lemon juice, the palate light to medium weighted and intense, bright and fresh, lively and clean, no obvious whole-bunch notes. Lively, refreshing and high-energy finish. Fine tannins in excellent balance."
