Changeable weather also affected flowering in some blocks and resulted in smaller crops. We experienced a high diurnal range with low overnight temperatures through much of the season, and significantly we received a third of our annual rainfall in January. From February conditions settled with favourably warm and dry weather returning through to harvest. Winemaker Tasting Notes: Our Single Vineyard wine from the 20+ year old Sauvage Vineyard in Bannockburn. The vineyard itself is located under hills once prized for gold in this region, now cloaked in wild thyme and rosehip. The land below is widely sought after for Pinot Noir and the foothills are framed with vines. Savory aromatics with fine pepper notes, enticing florals, rich dark fruit and earthy characters coming through. Supple with wonderful layers starting to emerge, there is a lovely focus and length to the palate and fine tannin framework. Expect this wine to reward over the coming years, also cellaring potential to 10-12 years.
