One of the more unique approaches to Pinot Noir in Australia with 100% whole bunch and 100% new oak. The new oaks gives a sweetness to stem, dark cherry and rhubarb with a gentle but attractive smokiness shining through.

Inputs of both oak and whole bunch are on show on the palate, but the biggest impact comes from the beautifully balanced fruit that has both boldness of cherry and raspberry but maintains an elegant line of acidity. Spice adds layers of interest to a finish that lingers with a gently earthen note.
