Coldstream Hills Reserve Pinot Noir 2024 is a beautifully framed, layered, and complex Yarra Valley Pinot Noir from winemaker Andrew Fleming — dark cherry and blood plum underpinned by earthy mineral notes, spice, whole bunch sandalwood spice, and integrated French oak, with the characteristic grainy tannin finish that defines the Coldstream Hills Reserve style. Structured, textural, and built for cellaring, yet plush and vibrant enough for fine dining and gift-giving.
