Levantine Hill Colleen’s Paddock Pinot Noir 2021 from the Yarra Valley is a rare, single‑vineyard Pinot Noir – part of Levantine Hill’s flagship Family Paddock series – built for nuance, savoury depth and long life in the cellar.

Levantine Hill Colleen’s Paddock Pinot Noir 2021 shows bright ruby colour with lifted aromas of violet, rose, forest floor and mushroom, along with sweet baked strawberry, crushed rose petals and earthy undertones. The palate is elegant and savoury, carrying gentle red‑fruit compote and tart cherry, wrapped in fine‑grained tannins, subtle spice and a long, restrained finish at 12.5% alcohol. It’s very much a Grand Cru‑inspired, slow‑unfurling Pinot that will reward patience.

Colleen’s Paddock Pinot Noir 2021 is tailor‑made for duck, roast chicken, mushroom dishes, charcuterie and fine cheeses, where its savoury complexity and gentle red fruits dovetail with earthy, umami flavours. It has already attracted international recognition, including a silver medal in global competition, and is intended to age gracefully for a decade or more.cdn.
