Vin beskrivelse

Santolin: "100% Pinot Noir from Willowlake Vineyard, Gladysdale, Upper Yarra Valley. Produced from fruit grown on a single 30+ year old block in the Willowlake Vineyard in Gladysdale. At 250m above sea level, this vineyard has a blend of soils combining rich, red volcanic soil from the hills and clay loam. The majority of the vines are planted on a north east facing slope and receive high rainfall across the year. The vineyard is hand pruned with vertical shoot positioning and shoot thinned when required throughout the growing season. Fermentation in open fermenters and maturation for 10 months in 100% French oak (30% new)."

James Halliday (91 points):
"Matured in 30% new French oak. While its Gruyere sibling comes from the Lower Yarra Valley, Gladysdale comes from the cooler Upper Yarra and it shows. Smoky with obvious whole bunches adding mulch fragrance while a skein of sweet cherry and plums wraps around flavours of blood orange, woodsy, savoury spices, with tannins neatly in tow. A very different outcome to its sibling."

Robert Parkers Wine Advocate (91 points):
"The fruit for this 2019 Pinot Noir is from Gladysdale, in the Upper Yarra, and the wine is decidedly savory, supple and mouthfilling. It has blood plum, dehydrated orange zest and layers of cherries, cranberries and exotic spice, all of it weighted by back-plate density of flavor. Very good."
