Tasting Notes

This year’s Pinot Noir displays classic high toned Yarra dark cherry, with an aniseed, cinnamon spiced edge. There’s brambly red fruits too and a hint of undergrowth. The palate is mid weight, long and finishes with a bright, sappy edge.

Producer Profile

As a keen cyclist all his life, Matt’s love affair with the bike matches his passion for making wine from exceptional sites across the Yarra Valley and elevated, alpine climbs of the Whitlands High Plateau. Rouleur (noun – Roller) was inspired by vineyards Matt discovered while riding – chance meetings with growers and local people that helped turn dreams into reality.

Viticulture

A blend of grapes from 2 different vineyards, one situated on the western edge of the Valley in Kangaroo Ground. This block delivers lovely ‘pinosity’ and Matt finds that picking early here proves better results, providing more fragrance and freshness

Winemaking

A combination of old and new oak was used, opting for around 10% new Burgundian coopered puncheons, and the wine remained in oak for 9 months before bottling without fining and only light filtration.

Goes well with

Bright and vibrant Pinot Noir like this wine from Rouleur pairs well with dishes that lob up some contrasting flavours, with pork and duck dishes a natural go-to choice, thanks to the fatty edge.

Cellaring

3-5 years with careful cellaring
