Mornington Peninsula

A classically savoury Pinot Noir, opening with dark cherry, plum and forest-floor aromas. Dried herbs, black earth and a subtle touch of aniseed add depth as the wine develops in the glass. The palate is concentrated yet composed, with black-tea tannins carrying the dark fruit through a persistent finish. Decant gently and pair with roast duck, mushrooms or herb-crusted pork.

A hyper-fragrant bouquet brings fruit and forest notes. Earth, smoke, pickled cherry, clove-studded ham and autumn leaves accompany demerara and mocha oak. The Pinot Noir also shows rosewater, sappy cherry, char, youthful acidity, roast orange and grilled nuts. Made from the MV6 clone on Victoria’s Mornington Peninsula, it has red fruit, plum, acidity and oak, with a long finish.
