Gibbston Valley Le Maitre Pinot Noir
Red berry × Alpine flowers × Elegance
The Real Review:★★★★★
Le Maitre is grown from mature vines, planted by Alan Brady planted in the early 1980’s. It is a low production wine made from this historic dry-farmed, organic vineyard. Le Maitre comes from Gibbston Valley’s™ original Home Block vineyard at the western entry to Gibbston. The vineyard is not irrigated, and has BioGro Organic certification. Soil is silty loam over a mix of schist and gravel. The vines have a natural balance born from age and a deep root profile. The subregional influence of Gibbston gives the wine transparency and elegance.
Deeply complex; demure red fruits sidle alongside earth, beetroot and alpine flowers. Medium bodied, the precise acidity draws the poised fruit throught to a delicate finish. Fine and elegant.
