This is the sixth Reserve Pinot Noir (Single Vineyard) that we have released – the others being in 2000, 2003, 2004, 2005 & 2006. This wine has been made from fruit grown on our unique site at Paringa Estate. Lindsay McCall planted the first vines on the Paringa Estate vineyard in 1985, with ten acres under vine by 1990. From this site fruit of distinction is born from a combination of red volcanic (Ferrasol) soil, a north-facing aspect and altitude of 146m on Paringa Road, Red Hill South. In creating this wine, viticulture and winemaking practices are approached with the intent of preserving a pure expression of site from soil through to bottle. In 2009, the name 'Reserve' was changed to 'The Paringa'.
