NOSTALGIA embraces emotions and love. We reflect on the connection to a place, and how that connection is both at once comforting, but coloured with longing and loss. It is through a lens of connection and longing we decided to make a wine that is a pure expression of a place, a terroir. This is Leongatha, South Gippsland. Country we love.
Drink this now with a decant, or cellar over the next 5-10 years.
'This will take you on an exotic spice ride with flavours of sumac, star anise and cinnamon and heady aromas of joss sticks, wild strawberries and garrigue. It's a gorgeous pinot with tangy, juicy acidity teasing out the textural tannins across the light mid-weight palate. It's refreshing, lively and invigorating.'
