The Mawson Road Vineyard in Lenswood has a steep south-westerly aspect and sits at an elevation of 560m at its highest point. It’s planted to four of the classic Pinot clones (777, 114, 115, MV6) and this combination of ultra-cool site and clonal diversity offers a wine of great drive and complexity. High winter rains preceded a very cool spring. Late budburst, flowering and a cool autumn combined for a late vintage. Hand-picked on the 13th of April, wild yeast fermented in open fermenter and closed puncheon, 40% whole bunch, matured for 11 months in French oak (40% new, Francois Frères). Unfined. 1295 bottles produced. 

Fair winter rains were punctuated by a rare hailstorm in October, reducing yields. Handpicked from Stonewell Road, Smyth Road and Flaxman’s Valley. 88% destemmed, 12% whole bunch, wild fermented, pressed to French oak (36% new, Saury, Vicard, Saint Martin), matured for 20 months in barrel. 4320 bottles produced. 

This theme of lively fruit notes continues on the palate, where the generosity of the red and black fruit provides fleshy mouthfeel. This layer of red currant and blackberry flavours balances what is for Moss Wood Cabernet Sauvignon, quite a firm structure, with bright acidity and firm tannin. On the finish there is just a suggestion of toasty oak, tar and leather, giving the wine good length and persistence.
