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

Sitting at the lower portion of Coolart Road’s eastern slope, ‘D Block’ – the historic heart of their single vineyard wines from this vineyard – typically has darker fruit, an earthy edge
with bigger tannins. D block is 100% MV6, which has smaller, tightly packed bunches and shows the power and intensity of the clone.

Handpicked and hand sorted with the bulk of fruit being destemmed. There was a small proportion of whole bunches used in separate parcels for added spice and freshness. A cold soak for 5 days before fermentation in a mix of concrete and stainless-steel vessels. The wine is matured in French oak Barrique with 24% new oak.
