Winery notes (2023 Vintage)
"Intensely fruited with dark cherry, blue fruits and boysenberry with a touch of spice on the nose. Dark cherry fruit on the palate with savoury complexity. The wine finishes with a smooth texture and an integrated, silky tannin structure with a touch of whole bunch influence. A versatile food pairing wine, try alongside duck or venison or a roast vegetable salad with beetroot.
The fruit for our Grove Mill Pinot Noir is hand harvested from our flagship vineyard, 17 Valley, as well as our ‘Favourite’ Vineyard. Good soil and canopy management, cold nights during ripening, and the warm, dry summer kept all the concentrated flavours in the grapes.
We hand harvested the grapes and brought straight to the winery. The fruit was destemmed, with 3% left as whole bunches, and had an extended cold soak prior to fermentation. It was then pressed to barrels for malolactic fermentation & maturation."
91/100 Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, June 2024 (2023 Vintage)
"It's brightly fruited and elegantly fragrant on the nose with sweet cherry, wild strawberry, warm spice and floral aromas, leading to a finely textured palate offering juicy fruit intensity with fine tannins, finishing silky and lingering. At its best: now to 2027."
