Moorooduc Estate Devil Bend Creek Pinot Noir 2025 is a beautifully expressive Mornington Peninsula Pinot Noir — plush, juicy, and deeply satisfying. Deep purple garnet in the glass, with an aromatic bouquet of violets and ripe dark cherries, lifted by hints of pomegranate molasses and Mediterranean spice. On the palate, the wine is generous and textured, with a tangy orange note, velvety tannins, and the natural freshness that defines Moorooduc Estate’s minimal-intervention approach. A wine of genuine character and food-friendly elegance from one of the Peninsula’s most respected family producers.

Tasting Notes

Appearance

Deep purple garnet — the vibrant, concentrated colour of a Mornington Peninsula Pinot Noir crafted with whole bunches, wild yeast fermentation, and minimal intervention from vineyard to bottle.

Aroma

Fragrant and inviting — violets and ripe dark cherries lead, with exotic hints of pomegranate molasses and Mediterranean spice adding intrigue and complexity. An aromatic profile that is both distinctive and deeply appealing.

Palate

Plush and juicy, with a tangy orange note and velvety tannins that carry the dark fruit through to a clean, fresh finish. The natural acidity and minimal intervention winemaking deliver a wine of genuine balance and food-friendly elegance.

Pairs With

Devil Bend Creek Pinot Noir is a natural companion for duck confit, roasted salmon, mushroom risotto, and soft-ripened cheeses — a versatile, food-friendly Pinot Noir that rewards the table as much as the glass.

Winery & Vintage Info

Winemaking Notes

Whole bunches of grapes are cooled and de-stemmed but not crushed, and dropped directly into two-tonne open fermenters — avoiding the need to pump must. After four to six days of cold maceration, primary wild yeast fermentation begins, taking approximately one week to complete with temperatures peaking at around 34°C. A further few days on skins brings total maceration to 19–21 days, after which the wine is pressed and transferred to barrel following a brief settling period. Natural malolactic fermentation occurs in the following spring. The wine is racked once when assembled for bottling — no fining, no filtration.

Vintage Conditions

The 2025 vintage on the Mornington Peninsula continued the region’s tradition of producing Pinot Noir of genuine finesse and site-specific character. Moorooduc Estate’s intensive, hands-on viticulture — with minimal chemical use and a commitment to expressing terroir — ensured that the fruit arriving at the winery was of the highest possible quality, allowing the wine’s natural character to shine through with minimal intervention from vineyard to bottle.
