This single vineyard wine from our home vineyard in Derril Road is further evidence of what our fine vineyard site and mature vines can produce in a really good year. It includes some wine from interesting clones grafted onto our old Cabernet vines (planted in 1983).
17 months French Oak, 25% new
"A theme through all of the pinots in ’20 at Moorooduc Estate is a gentleness, restraint and here, elegance. The usual varietal charms are at play but dialled down, a light combo of spiced cherries, earth and ironstone with cedary oak. Tannins are fine and lightly grainy, the finish long and feathery light. Delicious drinking now, rather than for the long term." 95 pts James Halliday Wine Companion
