Bass Phillip Bin 17K Pinot Noir 2017

"The wine comes from the "backyard" vineyard at Leongatha South, Gippsland, Victoria. It has very close planting (17,000 vines), low cropping and natural winemaking. We respect the forces of nature, driven by the Moon, the Planets, and the Earth. This wine is unfiltered.

A softer wine than our Estate vineyard production, but with heady perfume, spice and growing flavour at the end. Located only 250 metres from our best vineyard, the wines display a different structure and form, with lingering flavour and very gentle tannins. The richness of fruits in 2017 show in this wine: it is quite a long-flavoured mouthful! Needs a few years in the cellar: it may be at its best at eight to ten years." - Phillip Jones
