The 2018 Kooyong Massale is a blend of estate grown Pinot Noir parcels from our Tuerong and Balnarring vineyards.
The 2018 Massale Pinot Noir offers a youthful perfume of black cherry, wild summer berries and dried rose petal. On the palate, the wine is deep, medium-bodied and layered with flavours of cherry and cranberry, soft pillowy tannins and excellent length and fruit purity. Alcohol 13.5%
Fresh as a daisy. Frisky to boot. Cherry-plum and orange rind, beet and rose petals. A slip of smoky/cedary oak. There’s some softness to the palate but it bounds through the palate in energetic fashion. A joy to drink.
