Rare Hare LL Vineyard Pinot Noir

Rare Hare LL Vineyard Pinot Noir 2024 from the Mornington Peninsula brings thoughtful craftsmanship to the glass, combining hand-picked fruit, natural fermentation and ten months in French oak. This carefully raised Pinot offers an enticing choice for lovers of cool-climate reds, with a cellar horizon extending to 2033.

Harvested in March, the fruit was fermented in small batches, including a 20% whole-bunch component, with three weeks of maceration. Rare Hare 2024 LL Vineyard Pinot Noir matured in French oak barriques, just 20% new, giving the fruit room to lead rather than relying on a heavy oak statement.

For the table, consider roast duck, herb-roasted chicken or mushroom risotto. These are suggested Pinot Noir pairings rather than matches drawn from verified tasting notes. Open it for a leisurely dinner, or tuck a bottle away to explore its development within the producer’s recommended cellaring window.
