Grown mostly on the Lone Star Creek Vineyard at Woori Yallock with help from the Willowlake vineyard at Gladysdale. 20% whole bunches. It's a crisp, light, bell-clear pinot with pretty cranberry, red cherry and musk flavours topped off with spice and briar. Easy drinkability with just a touch extra.

Light purple/red colour, young and fresh but light colour. the aromas are strawberry and red cherry - quite fruit-driven and delicious. Pure-fruited, but not straightforward. The wine is sweetly cherry flavoured and fresh, clean and bright, with stacks of appeal in a lighter mould. Delicious wine in a lighter style.
