Tasting Notes
The Adesso was "an experiment gone right"! according to George Mihaly of Paradigm Hill. "It was left in barrel for 15 months to evolve and mature but it was only after 10 months that we added some preservative. Without any preservative for such a long period, the wine's journey of development has taken it to a unique and special location. A more assertive tannin structure flirts with a more complex, intense and brooding personality. This is a distinctly more powerful pinot noir and quite the contrast to the more elegant and pretty Pinot Noir Les cinq or the savoury and voluptuous Pinot Noir L'ami sage - our other single vineyard pinot noir wines. Only 2 barrels of this wine were produced [about 45 dozen bottles]." - Winery Note
A paradigm shift for Ruth and George Mihaly saw us surrender our established careers in food for Ruth and medical research for George to viticulture and winemaking respectively.
We have always been passionate about food and wine and our obsessive pursuit of quality and commitment to ecologically responsible practices led us to establish our ideal and environmentally sustainable vineyard/home site on the Mornington Peninsula.
The overriding focus is on achieving balanced healthy vines producing carefully selected, exceptional & low yielding fruit.
We therefore have only estate grown wines - showing elegance and intensity ‚– but always a purity of varietal expression for each wine - Riesling, Pinot Gris, Pinot Noir & Shiraz,.. The journey continues,. - Winery Note
