Tasting Notes
A couple of years really adds finer layers of expression and accessibility. The fine and flamboyant 2019 season adds to that. A complex array of fragrant and deeper notes; fruit, earth and plant elements. It's very finely layered. Brown spices lift too. Some smoke, flint, pot pourri. A flicker of wild strawberry. The palate is fresh and open, finely detailed and silky. It flows long and the structure builds and holds. This is a classic Bindi Pinot Noir that is "effortlessly harmonious" (a Tim White quote from 1996), very delicious and ageworthy. - Winemaker Note
All Bindi wines are grown in our vineyards and made by us at Bindi. Our vines grow in a mix of ancient stony/rocky Ordovician soils and younger volcanic soil. We intensively manage the vines by hand and harvest by hand. We plough under vine and do not use systemic herbicides. We do not use systemic foliage sprays or pesticides. We use compost and compost tea and also use cow horn preparation, fish and seaweed. Our wines are made without adding yeast, yeast nutrient, enzyme or any fining agents. The wines spend many months on yeast lees in old and new French barrels. Our intention is to capture the expression of the Bindi landscape in our wines each season. - Winery Note
