Description
Planted in 1994, this Pinot Noir block sits at the back of the Eastern Peake property with views to Mount Bolton’s Eastern Peak. Farmed organically, with regenerative practices, it has been a key component of the Intrinsic Pinot Noir. Only in 2012, 2016 and now 2023 has it been bottled as a single-vineyard wine.
“A firm, tense and brightly lit wine. Set to red cherry, raspberry, cranberry with touches of bay leaf, lantana, dried mixed peel and pepper going on. Quite the chiseled, textural feel, appealing in that way and you’d say precise too. It feels quite vin de garde, a wine that is leaner and firmer than expected now, not without pleasure, but apt for long, longer term cellaring and getting the truffle, savoury, earthen aspects to coincide with drinking. An excellent wine for that, and great to see.”
