Wine Description
This single vineyard wine comes from the renowned Little Hampton vineyard in Trentham, which sits at an altitude of 740m. The aromatics are seductive and engaging while cherry sap and blueberry fruit fall immediately onto the palate. With a focussed and mineral core, this wine has drive, vibrancy and poise, and is a fine example of cool climate Pinot Noir.
Winemaker's Bio
No stranger to the world of winemaking, Alister Timms grew
up on his family’s vineyards on the Bellarine Peninsula, planting
vines at the age of 10.
After studying Oenology at the University of Adelaide, Alister
joined Shadowfax as assistant vineyard manager. He then spent
time managing his family’s winery, Kilgour Estate and travelled
to Italy to spend two vintages in Tenuta di Valgiano in Tuscany.
Alister later returned to Shadowfax to manage the winery’s
vineyards and establish the new Little Hampton estate in the
Macedon Ranges before becoming Chief Winemaker in 2017.
