The 2010 Gladysdale Vineyard Pinot Noir comes from a single vineyard located in the Gladysdale (Upper Yarra) sub-region, planted in 1995. It underwent a natural fermentation in small open top fermenters employing 30% whole bunches and was aged 11 months in new (35%) and older French oak barriques. Pale to medium ruby-purple colored, it offers fragrant aromas of ripe raspberries and crushed red cherries with underlying notes of violets, lavender, spearmint and cinnamon stick with a hint of dried leaves. Medium bodied, it is very well balanced with crisp acid, a low to medium level of fine-grained tannins and satisfying berry and spice flavor layers that linger long into the finish. Drinking nicely now, it should cellar to 2017+. Importer: Old Bridge Cellars, Napa, CA; www.oldbridgecellars.com
