Ten Minutes by Tractor Coolart Rd ‘ Block E’ Pinot Noir 2023

Nestled mid-slope on the eastern face of the Coolart Road vineyard, ‘E block’ typically has soft silky tannins and a brooding savoury edge. E Block is also 100% MV6, although is situated at a slightly higher elevation than D block resulting in generous mid palate richness with finer earth-tinged tannins which frame the wine.

E block is all handpicked and hand sorted before being fully destemmed and loaded into their concrete Tulip fermenters. A 5-day cold soak before wild fermentation with 19 days on skins. The wine was racked to barrel with a mix of old and new (16%) barriques, where it is matured for 11 months.
