2022 St Hubert's The Stag Pinot Noir

*BUY 6 BOTTLES, RECEIVE 30% OFF*

Hubert de Castella's passion for the Yarra Valley saw him establish St Huberts in 1862. By the late 1800s it had grown to be the largest estate in the area. The wines enjoyed immediate and on-going success at wine shows both domestically and abroad. The onset of the Great Depression, the increasing popularity of fortified wine and the emerging profitability of dairy farming saw the vineyard revert to grazing in the 1920s. It wasn't until the 1960s that the Yarra Valley again rose to prominence as a wine region and St Huberts was once again one of the pioneers.

After the success and cult following achieved by our St Huberts The Stag Yarra Valley Pinot, we decided more people need to drink Pinot Noir, and we needed to venture out of the Yarra! Fruit for this wine was harvested from selected sites, mainly around Yea, with some Beechworth and others in the mix. Picked early to maintain vibrant fruit, and treated respectfully to maintain freshness.

Fresh, supple, fleshy - Pinot for the masses – that sings like Pinot!

Nose - Varietal sour cherries and cranberries, with a dash of strawberries. There’s hints of earth, stalks, graphite, and savoury spice

Palate - The wine is light to medium bodied, and savoury, spicy cherry flavours follow from the nose. The palate is supple, even and vibrant with a sprinkle of tight knit tannins.
