2023 Provenance ‘Ballarat’ Pinot Noir
Tasting Note
Solid ruby in appearance, the nose is slightly reticent at first, with air, the earthy nature of the basalt soils presenting as savoury chicory and brooding damson plum. Flashes of game, root vegetables, shiitake broth and structured tannins indicate the age-worthiness and complex future for this wine.

Review
"From the Scotsburn vineyard planted at 510m. A light, bright ruby red. Reflects its cool origins with its aromas of red cherry, cranberry, pomegranate, lifted floral scents and spice. It's compact and nicely composed on the elegant, gently structured and persistent palate. It's a quiet wine, which I like, and this should really be singing once it fully opens up over the next four to six years."
