De Bortoli Yarra Valley Pinot Noir - Australia
| Yarra Valley Estate Grown wines are
sourced from the De Bortoli family vineyards at Dixon’s Creek in the cool-climate Yarra Valley. The mature, low yielding vines deliver exceptional quality fruit to the winery. This is preserved during winemaking with gentle, low intervention techniques to produce wine with varietal detail and purity. The idea is to create wine with a ‘sense of place’. |

| A warm vintage produced low yields of concentrated fruit. This combined with traditional winemaking techniques including natural yeast fermentation as well as warm maceration after fermentation has produced Pinot Noir with complexity, structure and balance. This wine is matured in French oak barriques for 10 months prior to bottling. Minimal handling is adopted to preserve fruit flavour. | ||
| De Bortoli recommend 3 - 5 years in a good cellar. |
