Tasting Notes
Pyren vineyard basks in the sunshine of the glorious Warrenmang valley in the Victorian Pyrenees. Under careful management, the precious low-yielding vines have produced top quality fruit.
Winemaker Leighton Joy has employed hands-off winemaking, letting the vineyard take the lead role in the final wine, and pure Victorian elegance is the result. Delicious!
Deep red purple. Very fragrant lift of blackberry, plum, dark cherry, black pepper and clove. Immense palate of blueberry compote and red berries, alluring amaro and dried herb complexity, savoury and ferrous tannins, and beautifully perfumed barrel.
