Winemaking
The grapes for this Pinot Noir are sourced from the Claim 431 Vineyard in the Bendigo sub-region, where free-draining loam soils over schist gravel create ideal conditions for growing premium Pinot Noir. The significant diurnal temperature variations contribute to the wine’s structure and fruit concentration. A portion of the wine is aged in French oak barriques, enhancing its complexity while the rest is matured in stainless steel to retain its fresh fruit character.
