ChaLou Pinot Noir 2024

  • TASTING NOTE: "40% whole bunch and remaining whole berry. Matured in 10% new French oak. Some deep tones of black fig and Bing cherries. A push of violet and lavender spice that works well with its treat bag of spices. There is crushed beetle, poppy seed and star anise. Turned potting soil and porcini mushroom. The bunch element manages to dial up the extract, providing quite a sinewy tannin palate. This has muscle as well as finesse. Think along the lines of a kick-ass pilates trainer. A wine to watch." 93 Points - James Halliday, Halliday Wine Companion
  • ABOUT THE WINE: 40% whole bunch. Grapes were left to cold soak for 4 days prior to fermentation with native yeast. Some time on skins post fermentation to build savoury interest and depth before being pressed. Racked to barrel with fine solids for MLF. Minimal filtration and sulfur additions prior to bottling.  No fining = Vegan Friendly.

  • ABOUT THE PRODUCER: Steve Mobbs and Nadja Wallington both grew up on family vineyards. Nadja in Canowindra (40 minutes down the hill from Orange) and Steve in Wauchope, not far from Port Macquarie.  They first met when studying winemaking at Charles Sturt University together in 2008.  Following their studies they each went their separate ways working and travelling in wine both domestically and abroad. In 2014 they each came to Orange for winemaking opportunities and from then on they have been inseparable. Steve started in Orange as a part of the winemaking team at Cumulus Wines before taking the reins of Nadja’s family winery “Wallington Wines” in 2017, overseeing the viticulture, winemaking and wine sales. Nadja worked as winemaker at renowned local brand “Philip Shaw Wines” where she had the opportunity to work with fruit from across Orange and learn the versatility of the region. In 2020 they purchased a vineyard in Orange and here they have developed their own brand ChaLou Wines. They are passionate about what they do, making expressive delicious wine and are dedicated to working sustainably with the land.
