A beautifully crafted wine from the Yabby Lake cellar in Tuerong. Plums and currants on the nose, spiked with rosemary and dried strawberries, with some floral pretty high notes and ripe cherry, leading to a palate that’s richly fruited – blood orange, dried oranges studded with cloves, anise and cranberries, and gentle hints of dried herbs, brush and forest floor. The 2023 season brough ‘La Nina’ weather conditions for the third year in a row. It was a cool and late ripening vintage with low yields and superby quality. This Red Claw Pinot Noir is bright, juicy and beautifully silky. Crafted following the same principles that guide our Single Vineyard wines. 10 months in French brings together an extremely good Pinot that punches well above its price point.
