2025 e'Stellar Pinot Noir

“Layers of complexity in an elegant frame.”

This Pinot Noir opens with aromas of ripe strawberry and raspberry, layered with orange rind, a whole-bunch herbal lift and a hint of Campari. Subtle notes of cocoa powder and toasty oak sit beneath the fruit.

The palate is soft, round and elegantly poised, with flavours of red cherry, cranberry, rose petal and a gentle bergamot note. Fine, chalky tannins and bright acidity bring freshness and balance, finishing lifted and long. A refined expression of Yarra Valley Pinot Noir.

WINEMAKING

The fruit for this Pinot Noir was picked in two lots, two weeks apart. The first was harvested early in the season and 100% destemmed; the second, picked later, was 100% whole bunch. The blend brings complexity, resulting in a wine that is both fruit-driven and savoury.

The wine was matured in French oak (25% new) for ten months before bottling unfiltered. Made entirely from MV6 clone Pinot Noir.

REVIEWS

"A kiss of smoky, sweet, cedarwood oak leads to a well-flavoured, varietal palate that’s flush with both red and black cherry fruit and ample roasted spice notes. This wine puts a positive foot forward from the outset and remains engaging and attractive from start to finish. The palate has just enough generousity; the finish feels dry; everything here flows nicely. It’s good now and will be better again in 12 months."

"An alluring wine with Bing cherries, raspberries and lilac florals. Some sweetly spiced cinnamon and nutmeg, fruit heightens its power on the palate and tannins are spread far and wide with sandy sweeping motions. You’ll be smacking your lips with fervor and wondering why you didn’t buy more. Try this with a Philly cheese steak sandwich. Drink now or cellar for another 3-4 years down the line."
