About this product

Elanto Vineyard is comprised of eight high density planted sites - five Pinot Noir and three
Chardonnay. The winemaking for the single site wines is the same as for the estate Pinot - fermented in concrete, tiny percentage of wholebunch inclusion, elevage in barriques of various age, bottled at the same time. Winemaking should not, and does not, cloud the character of these single sites. The only difference is an extra year in bottle before release.

What the critics say

97 Points - Jane Faulkner, Halliday Wine Companion

To date, this is the lowest yielding site; it’s mid-slope, west side and next to Basalt. This needed a bit more coaxing so a decent decant is worth the effort, plus it has more structure and power than its sibling. It’s not just word association either as this has strong ferrous aromas, pomegranate, wormwood, a touch of wintergreen and warm earth akin to freshly tilled soil. Beautiful aromatics. Intensely flavoured, the palate fuller bodied, with supple tannins and bright acidity. Incredible to consider such quality comes off young vines.
