Kelvedon Block 5 Pinot Noir 2020
An elegant, small-batch Pinot Noir from Tasmania's East Coast, offering impressive depth and complexity. Aromas of black cherry, ripe plum and dark berries mingle with warm spice and subtle French oak. The palate is rich and beautifully structured, with concentrated dark fruit, hints of chocolate and savoury spice, supported by silky tannins. Fine oak integration adds depth and texture, leading to a long, lingering finish.
Winemaking: Produced exclusively from the prized, low-yielding MV6 Pinot Noir clone grown in Block 5 at Kelvedon Estate. For the exceptional 2020 vintage, the winemaking team selected the three finest barrels from their entire Pinot Noir production for this limited release. Remarkably, all three barrels originated from Block 5, creating a single-clone, barrel-selected reserve wine. French oak maturation contributes additional complexity and structure.
Food Match: Roast duck with cherry sauce, slow-roasted lamb shoulder, venison with wild mushroom sauce or beef bourguignon.
