The nose is alluring and slowly evolving with aromas of red cherry, plum, lifted floral notes, mineral, spices and forest floor. Medium-bodied, with aromas of red cherry and plum interweaved with medicinal herbs, liquorice, lavender, mushroom and cinnamon.

Grant’s name is synonymous with Otago Pinot Noir. He has been crafting wines there since 1993 when there were only 20 ha planted – today there are over 2000. Grant founded VALLI in 1998 with the intention to produce single vineyard Pinot Noirs highlighting the different characteristics of Otago’s sub regions. More than 20 years later, VALLI is doing just that, producing single-vineyard pinot noirs from Gibbston, Bannockburn, and Bendigo in Central Otago and the Waitaki Valley in North Otago, as well as a dry Pinot Gris from Gibbston and a Riesling from Waitaki. In 2015, established Otago winemaker Jen Parr joined Grant in the winery where the two aim to create wines with honesty, integrity, and most of all, a sense of place. When you drink a Valli wine, you are enjoying more than just a wine: you are experiencing a place.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SSS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52247046783278,"sku":"4932374266","price":86.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0686\/6596\/6894\/files\/2023ValliWinesBannockburnVineyardPinotNoir750ml.png?v=1782632896","url":"https:\/\/www.jcfinewines.au\/products\/2023-valli-wines-bannockburn-vineyard-pinot-noir-750ml","provider":"JC FINE WINES","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
