Description

This Pinot is Amber Ochota's baby.

The Pinot vineyard is about the size of a tennis court, not much fruit, not much margin for error. Amber took this as her project and makes the wine the way she wants to.

The family pick the fruit in two hours. She ferments with no interference except the occasional curious eye and nose.

Bottled with a whisper of sulphur and not much else, it's a pure and flighty version of Pinot Noir which is set to make you wistfully think of home.

This vineyard is a mix of clones taken from the Ashton Hills vineyard 25 years ago. The size of this organically farmed vineyard is similar to that of a tennis court. This wine is all about family and enjoying slow lunches together under our hazelnut trees at home in beautiful Basket Range. Feminine, elegant and gorgeous.

Ochota Barrels

Ochota Barrels are the epitome of rockstar wine labels.

The grungy, minimalist attitude that they have towards their wines has seen them gain huge cult status internationally as one of the most boundary-pushing winemakers in Australia. After the passing of Taras, Amber Ochota is now at the helm at her home in the beautiful Basket Range of the Adelaide Hills. Their wines are crafted in small batches, with fruits sourced from surrounding vineyards in the Hills and special sites across McLaren Vale. Taras' legacy of lighter, more ethereal wines live on, with freshness and 'tension' as a motif.

These are highly sought-after and extremely limited wines which have a pulsating energy and drive to them. Some of the country's most exciting vinous creations, no doubt.
