96 Points| Drinks Trade Magazine
Our Pinot Noir journey has been a passion project from the outset, intent on delivering a beautifully elegant Pinot Noir from our cool climate, estate single vineyard in Eden Valley. We planted our Pinot vines in 2012 in the three coldest and rockiest spots in our vineyard.
Hare hunting has been a much enjoyed pastime for our grandsons over the years and despite their best efforts, the lads had never been able to nab one in our Pinot block... until the year of our first Pinot release, coincidentally, when they managed 3! They've since only added 4 more, so the hunt continues.

Near perfect growing conditions in Eden Valley favoured our Pinot Noir Vines in 2019, allowing even ripening for excellent structure in our finished wine.
Our 2019 Hare Hunter has all the ‘pinosity’ you could ever ask for, from bright red berry aromatics, with subtle oak and earthy undertones, to ripe raspberry, cranberry, red cherry flavours and white pepper infused fine grain tannin grip, all served up in elegant linear restraint.Â
