Moorooduc Estate Pinot Noir
Deep garnet color with a nose that is complex, darkly perfumed and tightly wound. Deep dark cherry fruit, dark violet perfume with exotic incense-like notes. On the palate, black cherry and raspberry, with pomegranate syrup, star anise and firm, fine grained velvety tannins. Long, concentrated and complex. Still very youthful, will open up and soften with time.

About Moorooduc Estate
Established in 1982 by Richard and Jill McIntyre, Moorooduc Estate is a small, family run wine business that has developed an enviable reputation for complex and food friendly wines. Hands-on care in the vineyard, with minimal use of chemicals, produces the best possible fruit. Wild yeast ferments and minimal intervention winemaking, with a nod to traditional Burgundian techniques, allow our wines to express their site specificity, or terroir.
