Winemaker Notes: Grown on the cool slopes of our Kenton Valley Vineyard, high in the Adelaide Hills, 2024 was an excellent growing season.  The season enabled freshness and vibrance at lower baumes, which then preserved acidity and the clean fruit profile in the finished wine. The VS Pinot Noir is picked from three separate parcels of vines all of which are different clones.  Along with the fruit quality, this adds complexity of character to the wine. The inclusion of 10% whole bunch fruit adds mouthfeel and whole of mouth tannins.

Tasting Notes: The wine delivers an essence of dark cherries and ripe raspberries that draws you into the glass. Savoury, earthy elements and sweet vanilla spice tantalize the senses. Oak ageing has resulted in silky ripe tannins layered with fresh red fruits while a touch of brown spice lingers on the back palate.
