The 2024 Denton Estate Pinot Noir is a refined and beautifully detailed Yarra Valley Pinot Noir that captures the elegance and purity of the Denton vineyard with impressive finesse and structure. Crafted in a restrained, cool-climate style, the wine highlights vibrant red fruit, savoury complexity and silky texture while allowing the site’s distinctive character to shine through. The nose reveals 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 fine mineral freshness that gives the wine both sophistication and energy.
On the palate, it is light to medium-bodied with silky tannins, bright natural acidity and beautifully focused red fruit. Fresh cherry and berry flavours are complemented by savoury spice, subtle whole-bunch character and gentle earthy undertones that build through the long, finely textured finish. Elegant and poised in style, the wine balances freshness and structure seamlessly while maintaining excellent depth and drinkability.
