A refined and site-expressive Pinot Noir, the 2022 Straws Lane reveals perfumed aromas of red cherry, raspberry and wild strawberry, layered with rose petal, dried herbs and a gentle savoury spice. The palate is supple yet structured, with vibrant acidity carrying pure red fruit alongside subtle earthy undertones and fine, powdery tannins. There is an elegant tension throughout, finishing long, lifted and quietly persistent — a hallmark of its cool-climate Macedon Ranges origin. Pair with duck confit, roast chicken with herbs, seared tuna or mushroom-based dishes — flavours that complement its delicate structure, bright acidity and savoury nuance.
