This delicious special release Pinot Noir from Bindi is only available in very small volumes.
Bindi is widely acknowledged as being one of Australia’s best small producers. It is situated at around 500m altitude in the cool climate Macedon Ranges, about an hour’s drive north of Melbourne. The winery is truly “boutique”, even by Burgundian standards, with only 7 hectares of vines, of which 5 hectares are planted with Pinot Noir and 2 hectares with Chardonnay. Total production is never higher than 3,000 cases per vintage.
A small proportion of whole bunches (5%) were included in the vats with the majority of the fruit being de-stemmed but not crushed. A small amount of sulphur was added on the first day and the ambient yeast took about four days to begin the fermentation. This wine spent 15 months in French barrels, of which 25% were new, and was bottled in May 2020.
The 2019 Original Vineyard, planted in 1988, is a deep, fragrant, earthy, spicy wine; deeper than is usual for Original Vineyard. It has rich and sweet red and dark cherry, redcurrant and fresh herb aromas. It is already very complex and has the hallmark perfume and finesse of this site. The palate is initially fresh and supple, then the tannin builds with the fruit richness for a silky, balanced, fresh and very, very long finish. This is the wine, of all those that Michael Dhillon makes, which he most often drinks at home! Drink 2022-2032
