Kyberd Hills Brigadier Pinot Noir from Mornington Peninsula is exactly the sort of cool‑climate pinot that gets Aussie sommeliers quietly excited, with fine structure, savoury detail and real poise in the glass. You can expect a gently aromatic, medium‑bodied style that favours nuance over raw power.

In the glass, this Brigadier Pinot Noir leans into red and dark cherries, redcurrant, rhubarb and a subtle line of forest floor, dried herb and brown spice. Fine, powdery tannins and bright acidity frame the fruit, giving a long, savoury, contemplative finish that makes Kyberd Hills Brigadier Pinot Noir a terrific cool‑evening red.

You’ll want this alongside duck breast with cherry jus, pork belly with crispy crackling, or a wild mushroom risotto that picks up the earthy notes. It’s also superb with charcuterie, washed‑rind cheeses, roast beetroot and thyme, or a simple roast chook with root veg and pan juices on a Sunday afternoon.
