Ten Minutes by Tractor McCutcheon Pinot Noir 2025
The Wine
A quintessential Main Ridge Pinot Noir from a mature vineyard of vines over 30 years old. McCutcheon consistently delivers elegance and precision, and the 2025 is no different. MV6 (80%) and 667 (20%), handpicked between 13th and 19th March at a low yield of 2.2 tonnes per hectare.
Hand sorted and destemmed with a small 5% whole bunch component, then cold soaked for 4 to 5 days before wild yeast fermentation of 15 to 20 days on skins with light plunging. Pressed to tank, racked to barrel with parcels kept separate through natural malolactic fermentation. Eleven months in a combination of 20% new and seasoned French oak puncheons and barriques.
