Pinot Noir

Central Otago, New Zealand. Lovely aromatics of dark blackcurrant, black doris plum, dried herbs, spices and dried cherries. A lighter beautiful frame showing excellent concentration and complexity. A silky wine with an elegant brightly textured palate showing great poise, balance and finesse. This very special wine will age extremely well – it will reward patience in the cellar...

Languedoc-Roussillon, France. The wine is quite clearly Pinot Noir, albeit a rather full flavoured one, and finishes with balancing acidity and tannin and good palate persistence...

Marlborough, New Zealand. A "feminine" style, with supple tannins and savoury complexity. Strong varietal characters of dark cherry and summer fruit compote with some smoky oak and a long, juicy finish. Harmless crystals may form in the bottle...

Pays d’Oc & Comté Tolosan, France. Silky & elegant with raspberry, summer fruit, a touch of black pepper & balanced by velvety tannins...

Adelaide Hills, South Australia. The 2019 growing season was terrific. We hand harvested our dry grown Pinot Noir in March. Flavours were ripe and robust ...

Yarra Valley, Victoria. Suggestions of orange rind, baked rhubarb and roasted beetroot amongst sappy, foresty savoury notes. A busy, busy wine. Labyrinthine flavours to get lost in and a slinky texture that makes that possibility all the more alluring. Bright acid, relatively assertive and fine smudgy tannin. Terrific....

Yarra Valley, Victopria. Blended exclusively from our single sites in similar proportions, Circle of Fifths wines are made up of the batches that are not chosen for the Single Vineyard wines from that year. They capture the strengths of our unique sites into one wine, coming together to tell a new story. "Where the Single Vineyard wines are the pure tones of each vineyard, Circle of Fifths is the chord.” -Melanie Chester...

Yarra Valley, Victoria. After discovering Yarra Valley wines 25 years ago Lou Primavera planted this vineyard in Hoddles Creek in 2001. There is a long-standing relationship with the Primavera family - having sourced fruit from the vineyard for some years. Testament to the increasing quality of this site, Giant Steps are now producing a single vineyard Pinot Noir from Primavera...

Yarra Valley, Victoria. Pale ruby-purple in color, the Sexton Vineyard Pinot Noir opens with a pretty, warm raspberry and red cherry core highlighted by suggestions of spearmint, milk chocolate and forest floor. Medium-bodied with a medium level of fine-grained tannins, it has a generous amount of mid-palate fruit juxtaposed by refreshing acid and a long finish with some mineral notes...
