Bindi Block 5 Pinot Noir 2015
Waiting to build, this vibrant and youthful pinot is a statement in underlying depth and latest power. Its deep perfume of rose petals, maraschino and red cherries and sweet, tight-grained oak is lifted by musky scents of five spice and dried herbs. Pristine and juicy, its long and vivacious palate of translucently bright flavour and meaty, funky complexity extends over a dusty spine of loose-knit tannins towards a lingering and tightly focused finish of lively acidity.

Winery
Bindi
It hasn't taken long for Bindi to become a signature vineyard. Located on a series of wonderfully sunny cool- climate sites whose varying, gentle but fortuitously directed slopes of grey loam soils have a healthy content of quartz, Bindi can produce pinot and chardonnay of great perfume, purity and texture. Michael Dhillon recently made some interesting name and label changes to his wines, recognising important forebears and contributors to the Bindi name, none of which are more significant than Kostas Rind, Bindi's inspiration and my childhood neighbour. The 2014 wines are exemplary -Ę right on cue.
