Pinot Noir

Pinot Noir is the red grape of Burgundy, responsible for some of the world's greatest wines. Fickle and temperamental it is nevertheless revered by winemakers because of its ability to express its terroir.

The Lusatia Park ‘B’ Block Pinot Noir is one of the more aromatic Pinot Noir sites in the upper Yarra Valley. To preserve these aromatics, we are extremely careful in the way we extract colour and flavour from the skins. Lots of whole berry fermentation and minimum plunging and remontage helps us to achieve this.
