Lethbridge Block 4 Pinot Noir 2023 from Geelong announces itself as a single‑block statement by winemaker Tom Lethbridge, fruit picked from cool, sea‑kissed slopes where limestone soils concentrate flavour; this bottle wears its provenance plainly and makes a persuasive case to buy for collectors and lovers of refined Australian Pinot.

Tart cherry, wild strawberry and red cranberry open with forest floor, dried thyme and a flinty mineral seam; fine, silky tannins and nervy acidity give a lithe midpalate and a persistent savoury finish that invites another measured sip – Lethbridge Block Four Pinot Noir ’23 shows poise and tensile clarity.

Serve with seared duck breast, mushroom ragout or roast salmon at an intimate dinner or fireside gathering where nuance matters; its food harmony and ageing potential make purchasing by the bottle or case a confident, rewarding choice.
