The 2008 Pinot Noir is bright ruby garnet in colour with a fresh lifted red fruited nose. Red cherry and raspberry abound with some oriental spice and earthy notes adding complexity and savouriness. On the palate the wine is firm and fine, with more red fruits and spice, intense yet silky tannins and crisp, bright acidity. Lovely length and elegance on the finish. A delightfully poised wine, that is drinking well now, but will gain further depth, richness and velvety texture with age.
What the critics think
2007 – “Excellent colour; fragrant cherry and plum, then a supple and long palate, full of all the right fruit flavours, expanding on the spicy lingering finish. Rating: 96 points James Halliday – Australian Wine Companion – 2010
Richard McIntyre is really into his yeasts.  He believes wild (natural or indigenous) yeasts give a lot more personality and character to his wines, with the extra palate texture an added bonus.  His reserve pinot, The Moorooduc, is a dazzling wine with a funky bouquet of warm North African spices, truffles and dense cherry compote.  The palate is equally luxurious, its rich sweet red berry fruit restrained and contained by an ultra fine veneer of silky tannins.  With duck please.
