Squitchy Lane Pinot Noir 2008



NOTES

Mike Fitzpatrick's interest in wine began on Squitchy Lane in Oxford, England, where he lived while studying at Oxford University in the 1970s. It was here that he first tasted wines from Europe’s finest single vineyards. With the taste of these great wines impressed firmly in his memory, Mike returned to Australia with his future wife Helen. After a successful football career, including captaining Carlton Football Club to two premierships, Mike began building his financial career, while his interest in Australian wines developed.

 

TASTING NOTES

The Yarra Valley is renowned for producing red wines of restraint and finesse.  The temperate climate allows full flavour and colour development without excessive ripeness, resulting in wines that are balanced and subtle.  Medium/light red with a fresh appearance Spice, cherry, plum and vanilla-like oak aromas give lift. The palate is medium-bodied, silky and caressing. Ripe fruit characters emerge and provide a satisfying finish. A wine for short-to-medium term cellaring.
