Description

Bright ruby red, and immediately inviting, dark red cherry, exotic spices and woody herb aromatics fill the glass, with a subtle flinty, smoky complexity. The palate as is usual for our style is full of plump red cherry and spicy complexity, structured by fresh acid and fine, powdery tannins which lend plenty of seriousness to this early release wine. Open and appealing at present, this Pinot Noir will also reward medium term cellaring with additional complexity and nuance. A wonderful weekday wine, or introduction to our style Words From Joshua Cooper Shortlisted – Best New Winery of the Year Halliday Wine Companion Awards 2024 Gourmet Traveller Wine – Young Winemaker of the Year Gourmet Traveller 2020 “One of Australia’s brightest young winemakers.” Mike Bennie, Voyeur Magazine, May 2018 “Joshua Cooper is one of Australia’s brightest young stars” Nick Stock, jamessuckling.com 2020 “Gary Farr (By Farr), Joshua Cooper and Robert Walters (Place of Changing Winds) should be changing perceptions of Australian wine. These are in many cases delicate, elegant, refined wines that deliver classic varietal expression and defy old stereotypes.” Joe Czerwinski, robertparker.com 2021 “…Using grapes bought in from carefully chosen, non mainstream sources…However difficult the bottles may be to get into, their contents are pretty impressive.” Jancis Robinson, The Cool Macedon Ranges with Max, April 2018 “Such a talent, he could choose anywhere to make wine yet Macedon Ranges is home.” Jane Faulkner Wine Companion June 2023
