WHY WE LOVE THIS WINE
95 POINTS - 2020 JAMES HALLIDAY WINE COMPANION
100% MV6 clone, attesting to the age of the vineyard when MV6 was clearly the best available, and has retained that status in most regions. Don't be deceived by the apparent lack of depth to the colour; this wine has all the drive of the '17 vintage, and more elegance than most.

97 POINTS - HUON HOOKE
"Smokey and sweet-cherry scented… succulent palate. The tannins are light and fine-grained… smooth as silk texture. Superb wine. A gorgeous drink right now, and promises to remain so for several years”
Huon Hooke - The Real Review
TASTING NOTES
Planted on dramatic slopes at high elevation in the Upper Yarra Valley, Wombat Creek Vineyard has cool, extended seasons and high sunshine hours – perfect for Pinot Noir wines with a beguiling mix of power and purity.
