William Downie Pinot Noir

We are pleased to announce that we have two wines available this year.

The 2006 Yarra Valley wine continues on the path of evolution; again, the wine is more intense than the previous but it retains a similar elegance. The structure is a little more serious but is not forced or aggressive. It is, as always, very closed at the moment. Any bottles opened in the coming year must be gently decanted and left for at least 3 hours before serving.

The 2006 Mornington Peninsula is an altogether more jovial, approachable wine. Lots of bright fruit and a lovely soft palate. It’s a little riper than the Yarra wine but not at all over done. I think this will be an interesting wine to watch over time.

Both wines are now available for purchase.
