The 2024 Arfion Spring Pinot Noir is a bright and energetic Yarra Valley Pinot Noir that captures the freshness and purity of cool-climate fruit in an elegant, modern style. Crafted with a restrained winemaking approach, the wine focuses on vibrant red fruit, fine texture and savoury complexity while maintaining excellent drinkability and finesse. The nose opens with wild strawberry, red cherry and cranberry layered alongside rose petal, subtle spice, fresh herbs and delicate forest floor notes. There’s a lifted floral perfume and gentle earthy nuance that gives the wine both charm and sophistication.
On the palate, it is light to medium-bodied with silky tannins, juicy natural acidity and beautifully pure red fruit. Fresh berry flavours are balanced by savoury spice, subtle whole-bunch complexity and soft earthy undertones that build through the finely textured finish. Elegant and lively in style, the wine combines freshness and structure beautifully while remaining highly approachable and refined.
