Gentle Folk Little Creek Pinot Noir 2024
Little Creek sits in its own valley just over the hill from Monomeith - but it is its own beast. The vine density is double and the soil much more rocky that that of its neighbours. This usually shows through in the wine having more fruit density, with much darker and earthier characters. This is true again in 2024 where the near perfect growing season, although low yielding, has grown a wine that is true to Little Creek, yet with a great purity that seems to be common in the vintage
