2022 Xavier Goodridge Gippsland Pinot Noir
Description
WINEMAKER: Xavier Goodridge
REGION: Gippsland, VIC
VARIETY: Pinot Noir
VITICULTURE: Organic
The fruit was taken from vineyards in Central and East Gippsland. Xavier refers to it as his 'village' bottling. Vinification included 100% destemmed grapes, fermented in stainless steel on skins for 2-3 weeks and aged in a mixture of steel and French oak barrels. It was left to mature for 12 months then racked with a small addition of SO2 and bottled unfiltered.
Xavier Goodridge crafts idiosyncratic expressions of Pinot Noir born on his organically farmed vineyard in Gippsland’s Maffra, the Gunaikurnai Country. In collaboration with exceptional growers from Mount Gambier and Henty, he sources the highest quality grapes for his Papa range. With the light touch in the winery, Xavier lets the wines speak of the land.

Come curious. Leave with a new favourite.
We don’t tell you what to drink. You don’t need to know your varietals, regions or vintages, and you certainly don’t need to pretend you do. Tell us what you like, hate, what you’ve tried or curious about — we’ll take it from there. Sometimes the best bottle is the one you didn’t know you wanted.
