Timo Mayer Dr. Mayer Pinot Noir Yarra Valley 2025

"From an east-facing slope at 200m and picked a week later than the Mayer pinot; 100% whole bunches. A very bright crimson purple. A great year for this idiosyncratic wine. Complex aromas of wild strawberry, a little morello cherry, warm spice and peony. You barely notice the whole bunches. A generous Dr Mayer that saturates the palate. Ripe, very persistent tannins round out a wine destined to age superbly over the next 10–12 years." 98pts Philip Rich June 2026 Halliday Wine Companion
