Hare & Tortoise Pinot Noir | Yarra Valley
Pretty hues with a cherry rim. Classically varietal nose exemplified with plum, spice, strawberry and autumn leaves. The palate is light-to-medium bodied with complex and long-lived flavor. Lifted red fruits with the subtle complexing of earth and forest floor.

Production note
Sourced from a combination of upper and lower Yarra Vineyards. Hand picked, de-stemmed and fully fermented in open top fermenters with a small addition of whole bunches for complexity. Then cold soaked for three days prior to a cool ferment and pressed at dryness. It was then left on its lees for five months and bottled with only minimal sulphur.
