Pinot Noir

While we continue to expand our collection of Burgundies, more and more new-world winemakers are coming to terms with this challenging variety. Australians have identified Geelong, the Yarra Valley and the Mornington Peninsula in Victoria as suited to premium Pinot Noir. More recently, Tasmania has shot up the ranks. Mount Mary, Farr Rising and Tolpuddle are names to seek out. New Zealand is also producing some compelling, full bodied wines. Look for regions like Martinborough, Marlborough and Central Otago.

There's a wild strawberry sheen to the red cherry and raspberry notes that lie below. Cut with notes of exotic spice, apple skin, pomegranate, char siu, cinnamon oak spice, shiitake and blossom. So nicely composed. Just a touch of sour cherry, fern grove and game on the palate, pure and endearing berry fruits, pillowy tannins and lacy acidity, finishing with amaro-flecked red and dark fruits and game. Drink by 2035.

This is gorgeously styled and expressed on the nose with dark cherry, tapenade, spicy oak and rich floral aromas. The palate is equally satisfying with excellent focus and drive, wonderfully complemented by refined texture and beautifully infused tannins. At its best: now to 2030.

It's vivid and detailed with pure fruit and an enchanting gamey, wild side, stony fine tannins and a sapid acid pulse. A great release from Keira O'Brien. Drink by 2032.

This Pinot Noir was sourced from five vineyards – Harriet’s, Full Moon, Boat O’Craigo, Nenagh Park and Yarrawalla with only 10% of the Harriet’s component being whole bunch. Maturation was predominantly in seasoned hogheads and puncheons (300 & 500L).

From Steve Sadlier's Nenagh Park vineyard in Yarra Glen. This spent three weeks on skins before being pressed to older hogsheads and puncheons. Bright ruby crimson. A pure fruited wine centred around perfectly ripened strawberries and raspberries with scents of peony and allspice. It's deceptive on the palate in that while it's light on its feet and quite delicious, it's also structured with a little orange peel and spice on the long finish. Terrific from beginning to end. Drink by 2030.

2021 was a superb vintage in the Yarra Valley, the slow ripening conditions producing wines with lovely aromatics, supple textures and plenty of moreish appeal. The fruit for this Pinot Noir was sourced from three vineyards – Harriet’s, Boat O’Craigo and Willowlake with only 10% of the Harriet’s component being whole bunch. Maturation was predominantly in seasoned hogheads and puncheons (300 & 500L). A step up on the excellent 2020 vintage, the 2021 rendition also comes complete with smart new packaging.
A superb Yarra Valley vintage has produced a smooth, expansive and intensely flavoured Pinot that’s incredibly moreish.
Semi translucent dark red colour with a vibrant light red hue. Delightful violet, red cherry and winter strawberry scents enchant the olfactory senses with a perfume like intensity. Hints of rhubarb, forest floor, spicy cedar and fresh herbs also chime in. Smooth, intensely flavoured and expansive, the palate is flooded with moreish ripe red cherry, winter strawberry and subtle rhubarb fruits. Outstanding power wave with the flavours fanning out like a peacocks tail. Adding complexity are forest floor, dried herb and spicy cedar characters. Silky tannins finishing fresh, supple and very long.
Drink over the next 4-5 years.

Growing up in Healesville, a young Rob Hall did some summer work in the vineyards during the early to mid nineties before taking up full time work at Yarra Ridge then Punt Road. From 2002 to 2011 he was the winemaker at Mount Mary, it wasn’t until 2014 that he took the leap and began his own operation.

Other Reviews….
Hand-picked in small batches from three Lower and two Upper Yarra vineyards, most destemmed, 10% of the batches fermented with 100% whole bunches, typically 10 days on skins (a few batches for 1 month), matured in French oak (10% new). This shares its elegance with Harriet's Vineyard, and also a balanced web of spicy, savoury tannins. Rob Hall didn't miss the opportunities of the '17 vintage. Drink by 2024.

2022 Roc Breia (by Theo Dancer) Pinot Noir

Burgundy, FRANCE
$255. 00
Bottle
$3060.00 Dozen

ABV: 13%

Closure: Cork

Roc Breïa is an exciting new project in the Maconnais led by Chassagne-Montrachet's Theo Dancer (of Domaine Vincent Dancer fame). In 2021, Theo was invited to visit a mature, 10-hectare vineyard in the Bray district of the Maconnais that two investors had recently purchased. Dancer immediately saw the potential of the mature vines and limestone-rich soils. He agreed to manage the project, but only on the condition that he could control everything. Taking over in July 2021, with the help of full-time vigneron Bastien Cubillé, Dancer immediately began raising the vineyard work to his standards, bringing the soils and vines back into balance, planting cover crops, and cultivating inter-vine.
Other Reviews....
Théo Dancer's 2022 Pinot Noir is rather deep and muscular this year, opening in the glass with aromas of plumy fruit and sweet spices, followed by a medium to full-bodied, deep and primary palate framed by sweet, powdery tannins. It's matured in used 500-liter barrels. Drink 2024-2035.

A blend of pinot noir from vineyards in Pemberton and Mount Barker, destemmed, cold soaked for 4 days, 50% of the batch was fermented with wild yeast, mlf in barrel. Love the burst of bright, floral, red cherry scent with just a lick of anise. So smart. Bright, too, on palate with red fruits to the fore with an overall crispness, finely tannined and smooth. Hits the price point and jumps over it. Drink by 2027.

An obsession with a fickle varietal.

Once you experience it, you never forget it. For some wine lovers, Pinot Noir becomes an obsession. While promising one of world's greatest wine experiences, it can also deliver some of the most disappointing. What is it about Pinot that makes it so frustratingly variable? There are known quality factors which offer encouragement to winemakers. Micro-climates have been observed to play an important part in a successful matrix, particularly the diurnal temperature range. Pinot Noir is a little like Riesling, in the sense that it requires warm, but not overly hot days and cool nights to fully develop its maximum flavour potential. Sunshine hours, rainfall, time and rate of precipitation are all important. Countering this is the fact that the same clone will not respond to differences in micro-climate in the same way. Older vines make better wines. Creative and adaptive viticultural management and winemaking are essential. Buy Pinot Noir online. Any questions about our products or shipping? Please feel free to get in touch by calling us directly on 1800 069 295 or by emailing [email protected] and we’ll get back to you as soon as possible. Browse and buy Pinot Noir online, spend more than $200 and you'll qualify for free delivery to most of Australia.
