[SOLD-OUT] Quealy Mornington Pinot Noir 2019

 

"A big sweet Pinot Noir, generous middle palate and excellent length. Aromatics of cherry, rhubarb and purple flowers; the palate walks the fine line between red and dark fruits, silky tannin, slippery mouthfeel. A blend across vineyards creates a broader nose and a soft fuller palate.

The only blended Pinot in the range is drawn from all four of Quealy's premium vineyards, from the lower lying Campbell & Christine to the late-ripening Musk Creek Vineyard. Planted to different clones and with varying vine age, what binds these sites is Quealy's viticulture: the Estate manages every vine. 

Blending across premium vineyards can create a more pleasing early drinking style as the complexity of the blend makes up for complexity that age bestows.

With the fruit selected for ripeness and gentle tannin, this is the Estate's most generous and early drinking Pinot. Each portion of the batch was matured individually in a mixture of new and older barrels for 15 months before assembling and bottling in July 2019. It's a fragrant, fleshy and already fully-open Pinot with plum, bramble and iodine-noted fruit and a lingering, saline close." - Quealy
