Oakridge 864 Pinot Noir
Oakridge 864 Pinot Noir is a true single vineyard expression of Pinot Noir by one of the Yarra Valley's premier producers.

Valli Bannockburn Vineyard Pinot Noir
Nanny Goat Super Nanny Pinot Noir
The palate is rich and mouth filling, with up front fruit sweetness balanced by a fine juicy acidity. Notes of dark berry fruits, exotic spice and toast fill the mid palate framed by fine chalky tannins before finishing with lingering suggestions of earth and mushrooms. Alan Peters Oswald, Winemaker, Nanny Goat - Curiosity drives Alan Peters-Oswald to try something new, interesting and different just to see what the outcome is. He lets each individual parcel of fruit shine in its own right, and also believes that by combining a number of unique parcels in a larger blend you can produce a wine that is multi-faceted, interesting and evolves in the glass, creating a true sensory experience. Alans wines reflect his personality, in that theyre not flashy but are quietly confident. Give them time in the glass and youll be rewarded with a wine that is interesting and multi-layered. Just like him.
Glaetzer-Dixon Rêveur Pinot Noir
The Rêveur portrays every winemakers life endeavour - the dream of one day crafting the perfect Pinot Noir. Nick Glaetzer hands on winemaking experiences both home and abroad (including a stint in Burgundy) have been applied to this elegant and complex Tasmanian Pinot Noir. A luscious nose of strawberries, plums and savoury spice lead to the supple palate, full of cherry and blackberry flavours. Balanced tannin complete the wine.
Felton Road Calvert Pinot Noir
As often happens with Calvert, the nose when young is slightly muted and more direct than exotic; pure and fine aromas, not bold and lush. The palate follows on accordingly, with clarity of fruit, roses and florals. Focussed, concentrated yet pure in the mid-palate, with its hallmark mineral texture, its firm but ultimately juicy on the finish. The vines are growing up and were seeing the puppy-fat turn to muscle.
