The only blended Pinot in the range is drawn from all five of Quealy’s premium vineyards, from the lower-lying Campbell & Christine to the late-ripening Musk Creek Vineyard. Planted to different clones and with varying vine age, what binds these sites is Quealy’s viticulture: the estate manages every vine. All ferments were wild and spent an average of 25 days on skins with 10% whole bunches. The batches then matured individually in older barrels for 12 months before assembling and bottling.
2022 was the second low-yielding season in a row for Quealy, with crops down by 50% at some sites. These small crops, however, experienced a lengthy and warm autumn, meaning ripening was slow and even and the wine concentrated and balanced. With the fruit selected for ripeness and gentle tannin, this is the estate’s most generous and early drinking Pinot.
