Shadowfax Macedon Ranges Pinot Noir 2023

Product Description:
A cool-climate Pinot that’s all tension, spice and finesse. The 2023 Shadowfax Macedon Ranges Pinot Noir captures the vitality and elegance of one of Australia’s highest and coolest wine regions. Sourced from the Little Hampton vineyard—sitting at 740m above sea level—this wine reflects a long, late ripening season where natural acidity and slow flavour build create depth and precision. Hand-picked fruit, 100% whole berry ferment and minimal intervention in the winery set the stage for a Pinot that’s both detailed and expressive.

What you get is a wine that marries structure with supple fruit. It’s a study in contrast: brooding spice meets lifted red cherry; earthy undertones balance against vibrant acidity. Bottled unfiltered after time in French oak, this is a wine that rewards patience—but has enough generosity to impress in its youth.
