Ten Minutes By Tractor 'Up The Hill' Estate Pinot Noir 2019
Ten Minutes By Tractor 'Up The Hill' Estate Pinot Noir 2019
Dozen Price: $659.88
RRP: $65.00
The 2019 vintage release from Ten Minutes by Tractor saw the release of two Estate Pinot Noir' instead of just one, and whilst the 'Down the Hill' estate Pinot has all the power, the cooler, later picked vineyards in the higher reaches of the Peninsula give 'Up The Hill' estate Pinot an extra layer of spice.
Perfume and spice dance around liquorice, cumquat and lavender notes that are expressed willingly in the glass. The fine mineral tannins groove the palate and complete a well structured and enjoyable wine, typical of ‘Up the Hill’.

Winery & Vintage Info
Lower than average rainfall and relatively standard temperatures over winter, and cooler temperatures in August and September, led to late budburst (our second latest) and flowering. However, above average temperatures and low rainfall during summer meant an early veraison and harvest. The period between flowering and veraison saw our warmest ever average minimum and second warmest maximums. Veraison to harvest was our fourth warmest maximums and our driest (47mm v 136mm average). Five days of above average temperatures at the beginning of harvest compressed the vintage further. Yields are normal and fruit quality is outstanding.
The grapes for Ten Minutes By Tractor 'Up The Hill' Estate Pinot Noir 2019 vintage was hand-harvested Mid-March. 10% Whole bunch fermented, 10 months maturation.
