Yering Station Little Yering Pinot Noir 2017

Our introductory Pinot Noir. Sourced from younger vines it is soft and juicy with a lovely mix of elegant fruit, savoury spice and earthy undertones. Supple tannins and velvet like finish.

A wet Winter delayed budburst creating a typical cool climate growing season. Vine balance and an even ripening period delivered grapes with exceptional flavour, structure and fineness. So far, 2017 is the best Pinot vintage this decade.

Harvested in early March 2017, open top fermenters, and 'roto' (or rotating tanks on their axis) were used in the fermentation process over 16 days. 10 months in French barrels aged 3-8 years.
