"Fair to say that this is another beauty from Gembrook Hill, with a keen future ahead."
- Campbell Mattinson (The Wine Front), Feb 2017

This stunning Pinot Noir delivers year on year, showing the best of cool-climate Pinot from the Yarra.

With 100% hand harvested fruit from the Gembrook estate, this wine has got the elegance of old-world Burgundy; a seductive package, filled with sparks of spice and an impactful finish.

It's a great place to get acquainted with the wines from this fantastic estate, especially if you love a beautifully made Pinot.

"A light-bodied but intense, refined and very attractive cool-grown pinot. Utterly delicious."
- Huon Hooke (The Real Review)

95 points - "Medium to light red to brick-red colour with the merest hint of purple in the rim. The bouquet is very complex and whole-bunchy, smelling foresty, vegetal and gently minty, or more accurately, of fragrant balsamic herbs. It's intense and refreshing in the mouth, lively and vibrant without excess acidity, sappy tannins or any greenness. A light-bodied but intense, refined and very attractive cool-grown pinot. Utterly delicious." - Huon Hooke (The Real Review)

94+ points - "The concentration of fruit flavour, spice and tannin here is something to behold. This is the epitome of the tightly-coiled wine. It’s savoury to the gills, smoky, herbal, reductive, twiggy; all those good things. But the sweet-sour cherry flavours are intense too; it’s one of those murky pinot noirs where meat and undergrowth characters are inextricably linked/entwined with the sourness and sweetness of cool-grown berries. Fair to say that this is another beauty from Gembrook Hill, with a keen future ahead." - Campbell Mattinson (The Wine Front)

Gembrook Hill

Based in the cool upper reaches of the Yarra Valley, Gembrook Hill is one of the country's most loved producers of Pinot Noir.

Founded in 1983 by Ian and June Marks, Gembrook is one of the most picturesque vineyards in the region. As well as their stunning Pinot Noirs, they produce excellent examples of Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc and an elegant Blanc de Blanc in certain vintages.

Ian Marks sadly passed away in 2017. His son Andrew now tends the family vineyard and makes the wines, continuing the family legacy for producing outstanding examples of Upper Yarra wine.

Ordering

We want Different Drop customers to always be getting the best price. If you see a lower price elsewhere, just get in touch and we will sort it out for you. We handle all our price-matching on a case by case basis.

Some things to keep in mind: 

  • Retrospective price-matching is available for 30 days after you have purchased from us.
  • The price match cannot be used in conjunction with a coupon or one-off deal we are offering. The idea is for you to get the best price in the market so if that is already achieved through a coupon then we won't price match on top of that.
  • We don't price match clearance or fire sales.
  • We’ll match the listed price as long as it is a legitimate offer and the competing store is actually able to fulfil the order (they have stock or more stock is en route). Essentially we won't price match cheeky vendors listing wines they have no hope of actually getting for you...
  • It must be a publicly listed price. We won't match a price that has been achieved through a coupon/cash-back arrangement, or through a non-advertised offer over the phone or otherwise.  
  • It is limited to a reasonable retail quantity.

We'll treat each price match request on its merit and reserve the right to refuse where we deem fit. For example, particularly rare wines, from non-trust-worthy vendors, in circumstances we deem illegitimate or if we feel our policy is being unfairly taken advantage of.

At the end of the day, we'll look after you and use common sense to ensure you're getting the best price, please just don't take the p%$$!

No, feel free to mix it up! There is no minimum requirement. You can order wines in any quantity or combination, 1 or 50+ bottles.

We stock three different sized gift boxes (single, three bottle and six), all are available for purchase for a flat rate of $8. They look great and make an awesome impression.

To add a gift box to your order, simply add at checkout. The special requests box is your friend, please give us as many details of what you are looking for and we will try our best, or get in contact to discuss it with you. 

If you want to bulk order gifts or if you have any trouble please email hello@differentdrop.com or call and we can try and help.

 

If you can't add more wine to your cart it means we are low on stock of that wine. For example, if you are only able to 3 bottles and no more that means we only have 3 bottles left of that wine. If it's a must have, please contact us and we may be able to order more in for you.
