Description
Timo Mayer’s Close Planted Pinot Noir stands out as one of the Yarra Valley’s most coveted wines.
Cultivated on his densely planted estate vineyard south of Healesville, these vines produce fruit with exceptional concentration and a refined structure.
The 2024 vintage, influenced by a warm yet well-balanced growing season, emphasizes elegance. The wine opens with notes of red cherry, wild strawberry, and a hint of spice, while fine tannins and a touch of new oak (the only Pinot in Timo’s collection to see this) add complexity without overpowering its natural finesse.
