Description
The Yarra Valley is renowned for its unique and diverse microclimates, each of which contributes to the creation of wines with distinct and expressive characteristics. This diversity is especially evident in the region’s Pinot Noir, a variety that flourishes in the valley’s varied terroirs.
Pinot Noir from Gruyere, for example, is a standout with its intense, aromatic bouquet of violets and blueberries. These wines are light yet expressive, with a crisp, lifted quality that showcases the purity of the fruit, while hints of raspberry add a layer of brightness on the palate.
On the other hand, the Pinot Noir from the Denton vineyard in Tarrawarra is darker and more substantial, exuding deep plum and dark fruit richness. This wine has a fuller body and an earthy complexity, with a textured, velvety mouthfeel.
The Black Label combines the wines from these two distinct sites to offer a remarkable harmony. The Gruyere Pinot Noir brings a floral and fresh vibrancy, while the Denton Pinot Noir adds depth and structure. Together, they create a wine that weaves together the best characteristics of both sites—an intricate blend of lifted floral notes, vibrant red fruits, and rich, plummy depth. It is a wine that dances with complexity and finesse, capturing the essence of the Yarra Valley’s diverse terroir.
