About the wine
A Pinot with this much character is rare
Mike sourced grapes from some of the oldest vines in the region and made them into a stunning wine using painstaking traditional Burgundian techniques from France.
This wine simply oozes Pinot character - spiced sour cherry and plums with earthy mushroom notes that wind their way through each sip. The tannins are silky smooth and make for a very satisfying mouthful.
A wine from a vineyard of such pedigree, combined with the level of winemaking skill would usually set you back $$$. You can enjoy it for a lot less, because YOU made it happen!
Best before
The structure of this wine would allow for confident cellaring over 5-7 years
Serving advice
Would definitely recommend decanting if you have the time. Pinot Noir has complex flavours and decanting allows all of the subtle nuances to come to life.
Food match
You really can't go past gamey type flavours. Something like crispy duck breast with wild mushrooms when matched with this wine would be an almost religious experience.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Mike & Callum Garland
Father, Mike (‘Babbo’), spent the last 14 vintages at Castelli Estate in Denmark, WA, creating wines like their ‘Il Liris’ Chardonnay that won Best White in the 2020 AND 2021 International Wine & Spirit Competition. He’s in demand with other leading WA wineries like Rockcliffe, Singlefile and Plantagenet too.
Mike’s son Callum (‘Mimmo’) is snapping eagerly at his heels - an up-and-coming winemaker in his own right. He’s already up to his ears in grape juice, learning the ropes from one of the real characters of the business in Geelong.
Now, thanks to the backing of thousands of appreciative Angels across Australia, they can come together to create outstanding cool climate wines from the juiciest vineyards in WA's Great Southern region, and Victoria. “That’s so precious and it wouldn’t have happened for many years without the Angels.” says Mike. That's why the wines are just for you.
