Reviews and Ratings

Mymi Thesingingsommelier - Sommelier, FWS rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review:

De Bortoli Wines is a third generation family wine company. It was established by Vittorio and Giuseppina De Bortoli who emigrated from mountainous Northern Italy to Australia in 1928.
Their son Deen expanded and consolidated the business and it is his children who are now in charge and have established a reputation for De Bortoli’s icon dessert wine Noble One and their wines from the Yarra Valley.
Strong Italian family values remain at the core of this enterprise where hard work, generosity of spirit, sharing good food, good wine and good times with family and friends prevail.
The family is also deeply committed to the business and has a real passion for wine. The De Bortoli family motto Semper ad Majora – 'Always striving for better' - underpins everything the company does.
De Bortoli has expanded into some of Australia’s best known wine regions across Victoria and New South Wales including the Yarra, King and Hunter Valleys from its original base in Bilbul, in the Riverina region of southern New South Wales.
The family’s philosophy is perfectly described in the words of Steve Webber, their winemaker 'It's about site and season, making wines with detail, texture and minerality, charm and interest. Character and personality in wine comes from the imperfections of nature.'
The fruit for this 2014 Estate Grown Pinot Noir is sourced from the “Winery Vineyard”, located in the Northern section of the cool climate Yarra Valley.
In the glass, it is a bright, light rusty red.
It is lightly perfumed on the nose with hints of cherry, meat and a little clove.
On the palate, it is dry and velvety. Full of cherries, dark earth, minerals and spice. Soft tannins blend superbly with the fresh acidity.
It is a seductive wine…
Enjoy with balsamic glazed turkey scaloppini and wild mushroom rice.
