THe WINEMAKING

The very first release of Pinot Noir from our estate-grown Langhorne 
Creek vineyard, this wine captures the character of a variety rarely 
seen in the region and our enthusiasm to share its potential.


Bursting with flavours of juicy cherry, wild strawberry and raspberry, 
this Pinot Noir is vibrant and expressive. Subtle spice and so , earthy 
notes provide balance and depth, while a light-bodied palate carries 
freshness, energy and elegance through to a refined finish

The Vineyard

The maritime influence at our Langhorne Creek vineyard that is created by the afternoon sea breezes allows fruit flavours to evolve without excessive sugar production. The limestone based soils create wines of power and elegance with great varietal character. This vineyard is ideal for precision control over water use on the vines and known to provide more structural wines.

Taste profile

Primary flavors

Cherry

Fruit flavors in red wines typically fall into two different categories: red fruit and black fruit flavors. Cherry flavour falls into the red fruit categories but the cherry flavours span from red to black, and fresh to sweet. Confusing! Red Cherries can typically be found in young Grenache. Black Cherries are found in mature Pinot Noir.

Strawberry

A perfectly ripe plucked strawberry offers the quintessence of flavor. And what a flavor! Juicy. Tangy. Fresh. While perhaps not equal to the pleasure of summer foraging, finding notes of strawberry in wine yields delight in good measure.

Raspberry

One of the tartest red fruits, raspberry has a distinctive flavour and aroma that’s relished in desserts and confectionery. Given these characteristics, it’s more commonly detected as a primary aroma in ripe and fruit-forward red wines with medium to high acidity.

Secondary flavors

Earthy Notes

Earthiness is an umbrella term for aroma and flavour compounds suggestive of mushrooms, vegetation, wet leaves, graphite, tobacco plants, herbs, potting soil, root vegetables, and hay bales. Usually most commonly found in red wines and only sometimes in whites.

Herbaceous Notes

Herbaceous notes unfold a garden-fresh tapestry of aromas and flavours similar to herbs such as mint, vegetables such as asparagus or freshly cut grass. These aromas are generated by a component in white and red grapes, called pyrazine.
