Mornington Peninsula
‘’A classically vibrant and moreish Pennon Hill Pinot Noir. Fruit for the 2023 release comes from our elevated Red Hill vineyards (35%) and our warmer Tuerong sites (65%) at the northern end of the Peninsula. Lively aromas of cherry liqueur, milk chocolate, orange blossom and sage suggest a wine that’s both eminently drinkable yet complex. On the palate there’s bucket loads of red fruits in the form of ripe red cherry plus chinotto and classic Mornington Campari. Fresh acidity across the mid palate enhances the sense of life and vibrancy before an array of spice and structural tannin take over for a long savoury finish. A wine of energy, presence, freshness and weight. An outstanding example of Pennon Hill Pinot Noir.''
Simon Black, Chief Winemaker.

REVIEWS
"The perfect lunch wine, with its fine tannins, acidity and flavour coming together as a light expression. A neat combo of pepper and forest floor aromas, baking spices, poached rhubarb and red cherries with a touch of celery.”
