TASTING NOTE:
The McCutcheon Vineyard typically delivers one of the most classic Mornington Pinot expressions and it doesn’t disappoint here. Interestingly, the acidity here has that mouthfeel ‘fizz’ you see in Burgundy, a nod to the perfect balance of McCutcheon. It’s a wine that is still unveiling in bottle, the hints of black pepper and blackberry hinting at the balance lying below, the tannins not aggressive, but a presence. The very model of a modern Mornington Pinot.
