The 2024 Kooyong Nord Single Block Pinot Noir comes from a close-planted 0.8-hectare section at the northern end of Kooyong’s Mornington Peninsula vineyard. It offers expressive aromas of dark cherry, wild raspberry and pomegranate, complemented by dried flowers, blood orange, sweet earth and exotic spice.
On the palate, it is vibrant and finely detailed, with concentrated red and dark fruit, fresh natural acidity and silky yet persistent tannins. Savoury notes of dried herbs and gentle spice bring additional complexity, leading to a long, energetic and composed finish.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent single-block Pinot Noir for those who appreciate aromatic intensity, savoury complexity and finely structured texture. Enjoy now after brief decanting or cellar until approximately 2035. Ideal with roast duck, rare venison, pork, smoked meats or mushroom dishes with cranberry sauce.
