Every wine Jo makes has hours of her  deliberations, considerations and yes, even  palpitations, poured into every bottle on a  never-ending hunt for perfection. As soon as  we tasted the three wines, we knew they truly  reflected aspects of who Jo is – stylish, low key,  minimalistic, authentic and of great character,  strength and magnetism. These wines shine with  understated elegance, personality and integrity  and are proudly named in her honour.    TASTING NOTES  Colour  Bright crimson.  Nose  Characters of raspberries, strawberries with a  hint of black cherry.   Palate  A generous palate, laden with raspberry fruits,  plum and supple tannins.  Best consumed  Now - 2034  Food Recommendations  Great with duck and other game meats, medium  intensity dishes like porcini mushroom risotto or  soft cheese.  WINEMAKING  Winemaking note  Fruit was harvested from 15 year old vines  in an exceptional vineyard site from the  Penbro Vineyard. The  vineyard is situated in the foothills of the Great  Dividing Range with the soils influenced by  ironstone, clay and gravel - perfect for low  yielding vineyards. Tonnages were kept low,  (approximately 1.5 tonnes/acre) to allow for  maximum quality and flavour. The must was  placed in small open pot fermenters and allowed  to ferment naturally. I then hand plunged the  pots every 8 hours for the duration of the  ferment. Once the ferment was dry, the resulting  wine was pressed off the skins and given time  to settle before allowing a natural secondary  fermentation. The wine spent 12 months in  French oak puncheons, after which the final  blending of select barrels took place.  Varietal composition 100% Pinot Noir  Alcohol 13%  Winemaker Jo Nash and Olivia Forbes
