Pyrette is Bindi's Heathcote Shiraz, sourced from a carefully sited, well-managed vineyard near Colbinabbin on the Mount Camel Range, with fruit historically drawn from the Colbinabbin vineyard (from 2001) and the Col Mountain vineyard (from 2014). Heathcote's calcareous red Cambrian soils over the range give Shiraz depth of colour and fine tannin while retaining freshness at these elevations. Production sits around 800 dozen. The 2023 season across central Victoria was cooler and later than the run of warm years, favouring medium-weight, aromatic reds, though precise site notes for this vintage are flagged NEEDS VERIFICATION.

Pyrette is made much like Bindi's Pinot Noir, the key difference being roughly 20% whole-bunch inclusion in fermentation rather than the near-zero used for the Pinots. Fruit is fermented with indigenous yeast and handled gently, with the aim of harmony and drinkability over extraction, then matured in French oak. The house style is built to age gracefully over eight years and beyond while remaining approachable young. Exact oak regime and time in barrel for 2023 are not confirmed here and are flagged NEEDS VERIFICATION.
