A fresh, fruity Pinot Noir brimming with wild berries, bergamot, and wood spice (cinnamon).

Bright and ruby red with a lithe long fruit-driven palate. Pure magic paired with pan-fried sardines and salads with fresh herbs, especially when served lightly chilled.

Reviews of the 2023 Pinot Noir:

91 points, Marcus Ellis, Halliday Wine Companion, April 2024

“From the Hillenvale Vineyard (at around 390m), which has the GI border of McLaren Vale and the Adelaide Hills slashing through it; this comes from the Adelaide Hills side. A little whole bunch, 10% new oak. Pale red in the glass with aromas a little muted at this early stage, but with air, bright red cherries, redcurrants, a little musky/rosy note and some appealing twiggy, mulchy elements build. This is nicely refined and quite pretty, with an appealing savouriness to fruit and structure. A little longer in bottle will quell the slight edginess."

Reviews of the 2022 Pinot Noir:

91 points, Gary Walsh, The Wine Front, March 2023

"From a vineyard in Kangarilla about 390m above sea level, planted in 1999. Dark cherry, cardamom, dried roses, mint, an earthy/mushroom thing happening. It’s juicy and a little sappy, some ripe tomato and pomegranate, a slight chinotto bitterness through ripe cherry, light emery board tannin, and a firm finish of good length. Fruity and savoury, and good to drink. I like it."

"Hand-picked. De-stemmed to 100% whole berries for an open fermentation. Élévage in older French wood for 7 mths. Straight-shooting Hills pinot with telltale notes of sandalwood, dark cherry, bergamot, rhubarb and sarsaparilla. These can get too sweet at times but here, handled with aplomb. Mid-weighted, lithe and expansive. Far from cerebral, but quality drinking at a fair price."
