William Downie Gippsland Pinot Noir

Crafted from a blend of fruit sourced from the Matthews vineyard in Berrys Creeks and Manilla in Neerim South, this wine offers a unique combination of terroirs. The Matthews vineyard, planted on red volcanic soil in 1998 and dry grown since its inception, thrives in a cool, damp environment, resulting in dense, lush canopies. Meanwhile, the vines at Manilla, planted with MV6 in 1983, enjoy the benefits of facing slightly southward towards the Tarago reservoir, with their roots delving into red volcanic soils.

Upon pouring, the wine exudes enticing aromas of roasted peaches, iron stone, and thyme. On the palate, it presents a soft, rounded texture that envelops the senses, offering a truly pleasurable tasting experience.
