Xavier Goodridge Avon Pinot Noir 2020

$80.00

This Pinot Noir is sourced from Xavier’s 1ha vineyard in Maffra. Xavier calls it the ‘estate’ Pinot Noir. The grapes were 100% destemmed and fermented in stainless steel on skins for 4 weeks. The juice was pressed into 1800L Marc Grenier oak where it stayed for 12 months. It was bottled unfiltered with a small addition of SO2.

Maffra Pinot Noir is more red-fruited and brighter than the Henty’s single vineyard. It smells of forest berries, wild strawberries and cranberries. There’s a gentle perfume of wet forest, mossy wood, rose petals, fresh herbs, button mushrooms and flint. Savoury flavours refresh the palate with juicy acidity, crunchy green olive, meaty character and a lightly salty finish. It’s an appetite stimulating wine with ethereal perfume, lifted flavours and light pumice tannins. Enjoy with food or on its own and see the aromas develop.
