Red Claw Mornington Peninsula Pinot Noir 2024 - 6 Bottles

Winery Background

Red Claw is the dynamic, fruit-forward label from Yabby Lake Vineyard, crafted to showcase the character of Victoria’s cool-climate regions. This Pinot Noir reflects the Mornington Peninsula’s reputation for producing elegant, perfumed wines with fine structure.

Vineyards and Vintage Conditions

The 2024 vintage was marked by a mild growing season with extended ripening, ideal for developing bright aromatics and balanced acidity. The Peninsula’s maritime climate contributed to purity of flavour and finesse.

Winemaking Process

Fruit was hand-harvested and sorted before small-batch fermentation with partial whole bunches for lifted aromatics. The wine matured in French oak barrels, a portion new, to integrate subtle spice and texture.

Tasting Notes

Bright ruby red in colour, with aromas of cherry, raspberry, and hints of rose petal. The palate is silky and layered, offering red berry fruit, gentle spice, and finely woven tannins leading to a graceful, lingering finish.

Food Pairing

Excellent with roast duck, grilled salmon, mushroom pasta, or soft, creamy cheeses.

Story Behind the Wine
