Produced from the top block of old-vine MV6 Pinot Noir, it captures a cool, perfumed and structured expression of the site.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eLittle Laney is farmed with a sustainability-focused and regenerative approach, incorporating biological, biodynamic and organic practices.

A short period of intracellular fermentation helped lift aromatics before the ferment was hand-plunged two to three times daily for 15 days.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe wine remained on skins for a further 15 days post-ferment before pressing and transfer to barrel. It was matured for 16 months in oak, with 30% new oak, predominantly Sirugue extra-tight-grain, light-toast barrels, then bottled without fining or filtration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eProduct Highlights\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSingle-vineyard Mornington Peninsula Pinot Noir\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFrom the Little Laney vineyard overlooking Western Port Bay\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOld-vine MV6 Pinot Noir from the top block\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePlanted on own roots\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHand-harvested fruit\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNatural fermentation in open fermenters\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e16 months oak maturation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBottled without fining or filtration\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e95 points - Huon Hooke, The Real Review\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eCritic Scores \u0026amp; Reviews\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e95 points - Huon Hooke, The Real Review\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nTasted 28 May 2026.
