The Springbank Pinot Noir comes from a Bannockburn vineyard with red clay over limestone and ironstone buckshot, planted to MV6, 114, and 115 clones in 2001. Hand-picked and wild-fermented with around 50% whole bunches, it is matured in 50% new French oak and bottled un-fined and unfiltered, reflecting a precise, minimal-intervention approach. The 2023 vintage was cool and low-yielding with a long ripening season, notably a standout year for Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, with Moorabool Valley vineyards in particular producing particularly elegant wines.
