The aroma leads from the glass. Lifted, ethereal, rose petal, raspberry, red cherry, blueberry, violets, exotic spice, white truffle and a slight herbaceous wet brambles undergrowth character. Balanced and complex on the palate. It's difficult to define any one flavour. It's vibrant and lively with an intensity that impresses, an intricate fusion of fruit flavours tempered with fine tannins and a long acid spine. A seamless harmonious wine of great weight and complexity. I recommend this wine to all Pinot tragics.

The 2024 Savaterre is an immensely seductive wine of great definition and complexity. The aroma alone will have you at “hello”. Is this the best Pinot Noir I have ever made? Certainly it’s a contender with the 2022. And it looks fantastic this young. While not the most powerful rendition of Pinot Noir we have produced it’s just so intricate, detailed, seductive and complex. More Burgundy than Australia. Winemaker and co-owner, Keppell Smith

Producer

Savaterre

Savaterre's Vineyard is elevated at 440m (1440 feet) above sea level and is farmed along organic principles. No pesticides are used. The soil consists of ancient granitic “buckshot” over decomposed clay. These unique gravels are rich in minerals and provide excellent drainage whilst the clay provides some sustained water to the vines in summer. This ancient, poor soil naturally limits the cropping level to less than 4.5 tons per hectare. The vines are close planted at 7500 vines per hectare . This allows the vine to carry a smaller crop and direct all its energies to producing intense flavours and wonderful textures - traits that are found primarily in only outstanding vineyards. This unique combination of soil, climate and viticulture provides Savaterre with intense fruit of the very highest quality. The grapes are hand picked in the cool of the autumn morning and transported to the winery which is next to the vineyard. Savaterre's vineyard has been named in the top 25 vineyards in Australia.
