  • TASTING NOTE: "The 2023 has a seductive array of aromas, across pomegranate, rhubarb and raspberry. It is also quite perfumed. The palate is smooth and energetic with medium weight presence. It has a lovely balance with pippy tannins driving the length in a relatively tight and flowing way. This is the fourth vintage of Grenache we have made and the wines have the hallmark lick of chalky tannin. Delicious." Bindi Wines.
  • ABOUT THE WINE: We are having a lot of fun making and learning about Grenache (warm climate Pinot!). The rocky and steep Col Mountain vineyard in central Heathcote is a fabulous site for this impressive variety. The wine is made like the Pinot Noir, with similar ripeness levels. It has a little more colour and weight most years but remains fresh and medium bodied. Bindi Wines.
  • ABOUT THE PRODUCER: Bindi, located in the Macedon Ranges, is the Dhillon family estate, purchased in the 1950s. Covering 170 hectares, it includes 7 hectares of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir vines, with the rest dedicated to eucalypt plantations, native bushland, and indigenous grasslands—a reflection of the Dhillon commitment to sustainable farming and landscape conservation. The vineyards are situated about 500 meters above sea level on soils rich in shattered quartz, siltstone, sandstone, and clay, with patches of eroded volcanic topsoil. Hand-managed since its establishment, Bindi’s vineyards have incorporated organic practices since 2005, including compost fertilization, under-vine cultivation, and soil aeration. The winemaking approach emphasizes the distinct characteristics of each vineyard, with typical yields of 1.5 to 2 tones per acre (3.5 to 5 tones per hectare) and an annual production of 1,800 to 3,000 dozen bottles. Michael Dhillon, born and raised at Bindi, apprenticed with Stuart Anderson from 1991 until taking over as winemaker in 1998. His expertise was further enriched by vintages with Jean Vesselle in Champagne, Alain Graillot in Crozes-Hermitage, four vintages in Tuscany at Tenuta di Valgiano, and three vintages with John Wade at Howard Park Winery in the mid-1990s. Driven by a passion for Burgundy, Michael has also visited over 100 domains across two decades.
