The 2023 Indigo “Secret Village” Pinot Noir is a refined Beechworth Pinot Noir crafted in a cool-climate style that highlights elegance, purity and savoury complexity. Produced from small-batch estate fruit grown on granitic soils, the wine reflects the freshness and fine structure that have made Beechworth one of Australia’s standout Pinot Noir regions. Partial whole-bunch fermentation and gentle oak maturation add texture and detail without overpowering the fruit.
On the palate, it is light to medium-bodied with silky tannins and bright acidity, delivering flavours of cherry, raspberry and wild strawberry layered with subtle spice, earthy undertones and delicate orange peel notes. The texture is supple and finely balanced, leading to a long, savoury finish with freshness and mineral lift.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent Pinot Noir for customers who enjoy elegant cool-climate reds with bright red fruit, savoury detail and fine structure. The Beechworth region gives the wine freshness and finesse while maintaining excellent drinkability and food-pairing versatility. Drinking beautifully now and capable of evolving further over the next 5–7 years. Ideal with roast duck, mushroom dishes, grilled salmon
