Dark cherry and crushed herbs lead, with incense smoke threading through. The palate delivers serious concentration. Raspberry compote, bitter chocolate, cola spice. Yet maintains surprising lift. Fine-grained tannins build slowly, never intrusive. One of Australia's reference points for Pinot Noir, showing the textural depth possible in South Gippsland's cool maritime climate. The finish resonates with lavender and spice.
