The 2020 Balgownie Estate Macedon Ranges Pinot Noir is a refined cool-climate Pinot Noir that showcases the elegance and purity of fruit for which the Macedon Ranges is renowned. The nose is fragrant and expressive, revealing red cherry, raspberry and wild strawberry layered with subtle spice, forest floor and delicate earthy notes.
On the palate, it is light to medium-bodied with silky tannins and vibrant acidity, offering bright red berry flavours balanced by savoury complexity and a smooth, lingering finish. The style is fresh, elegant and beautifully structured, focusing on finesse and balance rather than weight.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent Pinot Noir for customers who appreciate elegant, food-friendly reds with classic cool-climate character. Enjoy now or over the next 4–6 years. Perfect with roast duck, mushroom dishes, grilled salmon or charcuterie.
