The iconic Pipers Brook Estate Pinot Noir is a selection of only the best parcels across our 5 Pinot vineyards, each adding a layer of complexity and flavor to this superb wine.

Whole bunches were carefully de-stemmed, with berries remaining intact. Fermentation via a combination of wild and inoculated yeast took place in small open vats, with 10% whole bunch included in the ferment. A combination of hand plunging and pumping over was employed throughout ferment. The resulting wine was gently pressed in a state of the art basket press and aged on lees in French oak barrels in our cool underground cellars for 9 months. Bottled under screw cap to preserve intensely perfumed aromatics and expressive fruit.

97 | Attractive spicy nose, palate fresh and bright, elegant and charming with loads of pinosity. Very finessey and complex.

95 | Bright floral aroma. Lots of red fruit, plum and cherry. There's a cooler green herbal note running across (but not unripe). Juicy and bright. Not the boldest nor the most concentrated but has a really pretty unforced character.

93 | Super sweet and fleshy. Good peacocks tail.

89 | oaky cherried and a touch too much oak expression, it's glossy but I can see its commercial appeal
