2023 Taturry Applewood Vineyard Pinot Noir
Description
WINEMAKER: Luke Curry
REGION: Mornington Peninsula, VIC
VARIETY: Pinot Noir
VITICULTURE: Organic
"[This] is produced using Burgundian winemaking techniques and minimal intervention. From one of the coolest sites in the region, Main Ridge, this shows rose and cranberry around a core of perfumed dark fruit in a tense, beautifully chiselled wine. Each taste reveals different shades of nuance, and a portion of whole bunches add lift through the mid-palate as the wine finishes with notable energy. This is a superb Pinot Noir" - Andrew Guard
Luke started working on the Mornington Peninsula in 1999 first among the vines and then, after a wine science degree, he became a winemaker at Red Hill Estate. Since starting out on his own recently, he farms the 4.5 hectare Mosselini Vineyard in Merricks North which is nearly 20 years old and is planted to Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Syrah. In the past few years he has been farming the 2 ha Applewood vineyard out at Main Ridge too.

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.
