It's Pinot Noir, but with a little ol' twist! This delicious Adelaide Hills red blends in a little Chardonnay into the mix just to throw a few cats in them there pigeons. The result feels light, bright and awfully empty-able, with loads of pulpy juicy raspberry and berry juicy fruit given an extra line of peach crispness, with a streak of firm tannins to give shape. Warm afternoon, meet your new chilled red champion!

Though Lansdowne vineyards are home to the slowest growing vines in Adelaide Hills, it's certainly never a dull moment for the young hustling family behind it, Eliza and Tass ('Tosh')! This Young Gun duo is making some tremendously exciting small-batch minimal intervention productions that are turning heads to the Hills in the hope of tasting their hard-to-get-your-hands-on wines. The vineyard is perched at 350m above sea level in the Forreston Valley, where it experiences a Mediterranean climate with cool, wet winters and warm, dry summers that linger into long, stretched autumns. Stunning early sunsets over the vineyards and cool air pooled in the valley under the starry skies make for an ideal temperature fluctuation (diurnal swing), which ensures the grapes ripen slowly and steadily, a prerequisite for the kind of flavour complexity and elegance we see in the wines from Lansdowne. Eliza and Tosh believe in the importance of sustainability and transparency in their wine, which means they take a full-love but hands-off approach to making sure their wines sing in the same key as their unique roots.
