{"product_id":"2025-decades-pinot-noir","title":"2025 Decades Pinot Noir","description":"\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThirty years ago, Steve Flamsteed and Brad Rogers were two Queensland mates at Roseworthy Wine School, sharing beers and a love of music, dreaming about the vineyard they'd one day own together. Decades Wines is that dream, and the lads' vision has been recently rewarded with the significant Best New Winery award from the Halliday Wine Companion!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eSteve spent almost twenty years making benchmark Pinot Noir at Giant Steps, and still consults to many of the country's great Pinot makers today. But this project is different and special - they landed in the Coal River Valley because it had to be Tasmania: cool climate, long growing seasons, intense southern sunlight, and the perfect cracking clay over limestone soils to craft distinct and world class Pinot. , and it gives the wine an unmistakable character - wild blueberries, mulberries, a touch of Campari in the spice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe 2025 was hand-picked across two parcels. The first fermented entirely as whole bunches. The second was de-stemmed, cold soaked for five days, then left to a slow wild fermentation. Both parcels went into small seasoned French oak for malolactic fermentation and stayed on lees for nine months. The aim, in Steve's words, was to tease out some perfume and delicacy alongside the natural density of the site.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eIt's a blue-fruited beauty this - full of blueberries, mulberries and a gorgeous touch of Campari and spice. As with all of Steve's Pinots, it's precise, perfumed, and built around the vineyard rather than the winemaker.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eTheir neighbours in the Coal River Valley include Stargazer, Tolpuddle, and Pooley. Decades Pinot Noir belongs in that conversation. Just 350 cartons made, we have a new star on our hands here!\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Decades","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45322653466667,"sku":"2025 Decades Pinot Noir","price":80.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2572\/9722\/files\/2025DecadesPinotNoir.png?v=1789094058","url":"https:\/\/www.differentdrop.com\/products\/2025-decades-pinot-noir","provider":"Different Drop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
