Dappled 'Sur le Crete' Pinot Noir 2023

From Shaun? ?Sur le Cr?te? means on the ridge. Single vineyard Pinot noir grown @ 179m above sea level in the rich red volcanic soils of Red Hill on the Mornington Peninsula.  This is a delightful wine made from a tiny crop due to very small berries and bunches. Wild fermented, 30% whole bunch, minimal SO2 added with no other additions. Bottled unfined and unfiltered.

The wine shows concentration and depth, almost not expected from a cooler season, but then the fresh acidity brings the wine structure and delicacy. The aromas are classic Mornington - Morello cherry, plum, beetroot and forest floor. It's round and plush with fresh acidity giving length and vitality. Delicious!
