The Collective Review
The critics are calling it a 'cracking Pinot from a top vintage and the ideal South Aussie region'.
We are calling it, a downright, stupendous bargain for a classic, and classy, Adelaide Hills Pinot.

Dive into the Satsuma plum, red florals, rose, silken tannins and plush mouthfeel while you pat yourself on the back for saving hundreds of dollars! We are sworn to secrecy to protect the brand.
Beautifully fruited and elegantly perfumed, the bouquet shows dark plum, sweet cherry, rich floral and mixed spice aromas, leading to a wonderfully weighted palate offering supple texture and fine-grained tannins, finishing long and velvety. At its best: now to 2031. Read more

"A cracking Pinot Noir from a top vintage and the ideal South Aussie region, this is pale crimson in colour. We have attractive notes of redcurrants, red apples, spices and undergrowth, hints of leather and more. Some early complexity is evident and it does not take long before red cherry notes emerge, especially on the palate. This is finely crafted and well-focused. Silky tannins with good length. Lovely Pinot which has a good three to six years at least ahead of it."

Tasting Notes
Lifted notes of cranberry, wild raspberry, raspberry leaf, rosehip red florals and a hint of wood spice and creamy oak influence. On the palate it shows a plush silky drive through the mouth, displaying red and black cherry fruit, Satsuma plums, oak buried beneath, and filed back by a pleasant line of mineral tannin.
Winemakers Note
With relatively good rainfall in Autumn, and again towards the end of Spring, soil moisture was generally at good levels going into Summer. This, along with reasonably cool summer temperatures, meant the vines were healthy; a good number of bunches set, and berry size remained at optimum levels for high quality wine grape production.
