Punt Road Pinot Noir

The 2024 Punt Road Yarra Valley Pinot Noir is a bright and expressive cool-climate red sourced from the Napoleone Vineyard in Coldstream. Following a "rollercoaster" growing season, the 2024 vintage is characterized by its purity and vibrancy, offering a fragrant bouquet of raspberry, red cherry, and tart rosehip with underlying notes of nutmeg spice and earth. Winemaking involved natural fermentation with a mix of whole berries and approximately 10% whole bunches, followed by a short maturation in mostly seasoned French oak (20% new) to preserve the fruit's natural clarity. The result is a juicy, medium-bodied wine with a "puckish" energy, fine chalky tannins, and an elegant finish that is designed for immediate enjoyment or short-term cellaring through 2030
