“Beautiful spot for wine tasting - and lovely wines. We had an excellent time with Ben who taught us a lot about their wines and made the experience fun. Great value getting the premium wine tasting selection.”

A switch to sustainable viticultural practices, top grafting with new clones and a change to cane pruning methods have been integral in the development of our winemaking over the last two decades. In 2012 the decision was made to introduce a super premium ranges of wines....The Cri de Coeur (Cry of the Heart) label is made in tiny quantities and perfectly showcases the pinnacle of our viticultural and winemaking efforts spanning over 40 years and two generations.
Tasting notes: The 2022 Cri de Coeur Pinot Noir has a spicy fragrant nose with vibrant fruit attributable to whole bunch fermentation. It has fine, textured tannins on the palate.
Drink with: Beef Bourguignon or rare roast beef.
Cellaring: Although drinking beautifully now, this wine will reward with substantial cellaring, perhaps even 15 years and beyond.
This wine is not yet available. Contact us via email winecentre@crittendenwines.com.au to pre order. Due for release in the latter half of 2024.
The Real Review
Deep-ish red-purple, bright and clear; the bouquet is sweetly cherry varietal, bold and brash, with a generous quota of oak. It has a firm tannin backbone that suggests either food or a stint in the cellar would suit it. A solid pinot noir with a big frame, that would surely reward some extra cellar time. 95 points.
