From a closely-guarded single-vineyard, Halliday Wine Companion described this wine as "Yarra Valley pinot royalty", and it's hard to argue anything different. Dense, dark and confidently striding into an incredible drinking window. Just look at those awards... This robust, textural drop is absolutely singing right now and we're inviting anyone and everyone to join the chorus.

To those who think Aussie pinots aren't worth aging we say this, think again... this is just hitting its stride with a looooong journey ahead of it.
