Tolpuddle Pinot Noir 2024The 2024 vintage at Tolpuddle is being hailed as one of the estates best seasons on record. Following a dry winter, well timed spring and summer rains combined with mild, sunny conditions to promote even fruit set, healthy vine growth, and balanced ripening. The result: moderate yields of fruit that ripened slowly and evenly, producing Pinot Noir of great intensity and elegance. All fruit was hand picked and fermented as a combination of whole berries

The first vintage under Stargazer was in 2012 and after a long search her dream became a reality in 2016 when she purchased an 11 hectare site in the Coal River Valley
