Eastern Peake 2023 Mount Block Pinot Noir

Notes from Owen Latta - the winemaker:
This block of pinot noir was established in 1994, I still remember sitting with dad on the old very noisy Leyand 245 tractor working up the soil in the autumn of 1993 as young little tacker being fascinated with the process, the aroma of the newly ploughed soil, the hidden artefacts beneath the surface coming to light from settlers of the past. I was very intrigued to see how these vines would grow in this new patch of dirt that was slightly different to the other plantings, the block sits at the back of the property with a wonderful view of Mount Boltons Eastern Peake to the west of it. 2012 & 2016 were the only single bottling of this cuveé its so great to have it back again. Normally this wine is the major component of the Intrinsic Pinot Noir, I really wanted to keep a few barrels seperate as it had been a while since a single vineyard wine was produced.
