Wild strawberry, rhubarb, and subtle spices on the palate, supported by fine-grained, seamlessly integrated tannins and a fine line of natural acidity. The palate backloads with confidence, pushing through the full length to a sweeping, lingering finish. Vegan friendly. 96 points — Katrina Butler, Halliday Wine Companion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAppearance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDeep, vibrant ruby — the concentrated, elegant colour of a Yarra Valley Estate Pinot Noir from four hand-picked blocks, with the clarity and depth that 20 days of careful selection and small open vat fermentation deliver.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAroma\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDelicate yet complex — red cherry and blood plum evolving into savoury notes of nutmeg and shiitake mushroom, with the stalk-influenced complexity and umami depth that make this wine so beguiling and distinctive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePalate\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWild strawberry, rhubarb, and subtle spices — with fine-grained, seamlessly integrated tannins and a fine line of natural acidity.

Cranberry and bright ripe red fruit, field mushroom, game too, roast quail, truffle, super indulgent. It sports a delicious umami broth backbone – the type that anchors and seasons. Metronomic balance with not a hair out of place and the palate bursting with fruit. Ripe red cherry, all parts dewy and plush. Middle Eastern spices keep pace through the velvety finish. Superbly done.”\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e— Katrina Butler, 96 Points, Halliday Wine Companion, July 2025\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Levantine Hill","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48653079118073,"sku":"9346863003057-2022","price":69.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0633\/6820\/0441\/files\/levantine-hill-estate-pinot-noir-2022-yarra-valley.webp?v=1783648476","url":"https:\/\/winesellersdirect.com.au\/products\/levantine-hill-estate-pinot-noir-2022-yarra-valley","provider":"Wine Sellers Direct","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
