Our Review
The densely planted, non-irrigated vines (at a density of 5000 vines per ha) cascade down a steep hillside at Emerald in one of the coolest parts of the Yarra Valley. Pinot Noir is the speciality of the winery, producing intensely flavoured wines with a strong eucalypt mint overlay. -JAMES HALLIDAY
