About This Wine
The 2024 vintage marks the return of this Pinot Noir. It is described as medium-bodied and easy to drink, with a luscious cherry flavour and a splash of savoury spice.
The clone MV6 Pinot vines are north-facing and positioned on a hillside, providing sun exposure and balance in flavour, acid and colour. Varying soil types from the top to the bottom of the hill contribute different characteristics to the fruit and added complexity in the wine.
Dino has long been an advocate for Pinot Noir from the King Valley. A photo from 1989 shows Dino winning an award for Pinot at the King Valley Wine Shed Show. The winery’s first Pinot Noir release came in 2018.
Tasting Notes
Think fresh, bright cherry & strawberry, spice & violet aromatics.
About the Producer
Cavedon Wines is the latest chapter in a story that dates back almost 50 years. The Cavedon family settled in the King Valley in the 1970s, with Dino Cavedon becoming one of the early pioneers of the region. His work in viticulture was recognised by the Department of Agriculture, who approached him to develop techniques to further the field.
In 2018, Dino passed the reins to his daughter Pia and her husband Gabe. Largely self-taught, Gabe heads up the winemaking with meticulous attention to detail, utilising techniques rare in the region including skin contact in whites, early picking and pressing of reds and bottle fermentation with Prosecco.
Since vintage 2023, Cavedon Wines has been sustainably certified by Sustainable Winegrowing Australia. All wines are made with minimal intervention and are vegan-friendly.
