Located in the heart of Victoria’s beautiful Mornington Peninsula, Paringa Estate was founded in 1984 by Lindsay McCall when he purchased a derelict orchard. Paringa Estate is one of the most highly awarded boutique wineries in Australia, regularly winning trophies for its Shiraz, Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. The wines pay homage to Burgundy in style and James Halliday says Paringa Estate is “one of the best, if not the best, wineries on the Peninsula”.
This Mornington Peninsula Pinot Noir has fruit from its estate-managed Pinot Noir blocks, which accounts for approximately 60%, with the remaining 40% sourced from a number of carefully selected contracted growers, all overseen by Linsdey and Jamie McCall.
The grapes were 100% destemmed prior to vinification and carefully selected. The fruit was then fermented in two-tonne open fermenters and spent an average of 21 days on its skins, extracting the desired level of aromatics, colour flavour and structure. The wine was matured on its lees in French oak barrels for a period of 11 months, which helped to round out the tannins and added texture and complexity.
Suitable for vegetarians and vegans, this is a very bright and appealing cool-climate style of Pinot Noir, with intense red cherry and spicy aromas. The bold notes of red fruit on the palate are underscored by fine tannins and a velvety texture.
