2023 | Mayer 'Dr. Mayer' Pinot Noir | Yarra Valley
This wine is 100% whole bunch fermentation, with 10 days carbonic and 10 days maceration. The simplicity of the approach lies in stark contrast to the complexity of this sumptuous, medium-bodied expression. Briars, dill and cardamon with ample red cherry fruit and lilacs. Woodsy whole bunch-derived tannins across the finish. According to winemaker Timo Mayer, this is always better after at least five years. Drink or hold.
