750mL / Macendon Ranges, VIC / Australia

Category: Wine
Sub-Category: Red wine

The fruit for Shadowfax Pinot Noir comes from the Little Hampton, Midhill, Mt Macedon and Big Shed vineyards and a long, cool growing season in the Macedon Ranges.

Deep purple in colour with a deep crimson hue, this elegant Macedon Ranges Pinot Noir has fine spice aromas including cardamom, cinnamon, five spice and citrus blossom.

Darker fruits and florals evolve in the glass as do undergrowth complexities and flecks of graphite.

The wine has intrigue and flair in the glass, evolving through time. Fruits and spice appear immediately.

The generous palate has breadth and expanse, yet shows poise from seams of graphite minerality.

There are complexities galore with game meats and savoury spice interacting with brooding fruits and violet nuisances.

The palate is long and persistent yet light on its feet, bringing you back for more.

A fine example of cool climate Macedon Ranges Pinot Noir.
