Yarra Valley, Victoria

This is the only wine in Gembrook's range that is not made from grapes grown on our property at Gembrook. This year the Village Pinot is a single vineyard pinot from a vineyard in Yellingbo in the Upper Yarra Valley. In a curious twist for the Upper Yarra Valley, this vineyard is situated on grey clay loam. So while the fruit has hallmark Upper Yarra perfume it has a denser richer palate and tannin structure.

In the winery the fruit is destemmed, fermented on skins for 3-4 weeks and matured in large format old French oak. 

Unfined, unfiltered. Estate bottled.
