Wine List/Ten Minutes By Tractor

[SOLD-OUT] Ten Minutes By Tractor Estate Down The Hill Pinot Noir 2017

"Coolart Road (100%) :: MV6 (90%), 115 (6%), 777 (4%). Whole bunches varied with different parcels between 0- 20% with the destemmed portion all whole berries, and transferred to a mix of 5 tonne concrete and 1 tonne stainless steel tanks. Indigenous yeast ferment typically runs for 25-30 days with some plunging towards the end of the ferment. Following pressing, the wine was transferred to 25% new 228 litre French oak barrels for 11 months. Natural 100% malolactic fermentation before bottling unfined and with minimal filtration.


With the Estate Pinot Noir now split into two, this wine is a celebration of the lower, warmer Ten Minutes By Tractor vineyard sites, and in 2017 it’s all from the low-yielding Coolart Road Vineyard. Here, that means a wonderfully generous and approachable Pinot that captures a perfect ripening season. A Pinot with a palate flush with red fruit and cranberry and dry tannins. A more masculine wine compared to the ‘Up the Hill’ and immediately enjoyable."
