Description

The Haven Pinot Noir is a beautiful expression of Mornington Peninsula Pinot Noir.

A riot of floral aromatics and a seamless, slippery palate, this is a class act wine that drinks beautifully from day one.

Bright fruit notes marry with aromas of dried spices; it's fleshy and chewy with a powerful finish. It's a stunning example of Pinot Noir, and it gives a comforting warmth with every sip.

95 Points - "Red fruits, spicy and earthy, floral too. Medium-bodied, spiced strawberry and sour cherry, tight and quite sappy, fine emery tannin, lively and fresh to close, with a sort of sweet soil thing happening. Really like this. Finely etched, detail and embroidery, or something like that." - Gary Walsh (The Wine Front)

95 Points - "Medium to light ruby colour with purple tinges, the bouquet shows smoked-smallgoods, mushrooms, a faint trace of reduction, a note of dried flower heads and a trace of oak. The wine is elegant and refined on the tongue; smooth and savoury as it glides towards and long, supple, deliciously lingering finale. An excellent pinot." - Huon Hooke (The Real Review)

91 Points - "Haven always has more grunt than the other 2 single-block pinots. It's a whorl of spiced dark cherries, beetroot and earthy rhubarb, zest of blood orange with sweet and charry oak encompassing all. Full bodied, with lots of tannins yet the palate has some give driven by lively acidity." - Jane Faulkner (Halliday Wine Companion)

The Kooyong vineyard is located on the Mornington Peninsula at Tuerong, on Miocene sedimentary soils. Our wines are made from domain grown, handpicked grapes and aim to manifest terroir: the integration of our geology and soils with the macroclimate of our region, the mesoclimates of the various sites within our vineyard and the weather of the annual grape growing season.

Our cultural operations in the vineyard and practices in the winery endeavour to articulate these unique characteristics diligently, respectfully and without artifice.

Ordering

We want Different Drop customers to always be getting the best price. If you see a lower price elsewhere, just get in touch and we will sort it out for you. We handle all our price-matching on a case by case basis.

Some things to keep in mind: 

  • Retrospective price-matching is available for 30 days after you have purchased from us.
  • The price match cannot be used in conjunction with a coupon or one-off deal we are offering. The idea is for you to get the best price in the market so if that is already achieved through a coupon then we won't price match on top of that.
  • We don't price match clearance or fire sales.
  • We’ll match the listed price as long as it is a legitimate offer and the competing store is actually able to fulfil the order (they have stock or more stock is en route). Essentially we won't price match cheeky vendors listing wines they have no hope of actually getting for you...
  • It must be a publicly listed price. We won't match a price that has been achieved through a coupon/cash-back arrangement, or through a non-advertised offer over the phone or otherwise.  
  • It is limited to a reasonable retail quantity.

We'll treat each price match request on its merit and reserve the right to refuse where we deem fit. For example, particularly rare wines, from non-trust-worthy vendors, in circumstances we deem illegitimate or if we feel our policy is being unfairly taken advantage of.

At the end of the day, we'll look after you and use common sense to ensure you're getting the best price, please just don't take the p%$$!

No, feel free to mix it up! There is no minimum requirement. You can order wines in any quantity or combination, 1 or 50+ bottles.

We stock three different sized gift boxes (single, three bottle and six), all are available for purchase for a flat rate of $8. They look great and make an awesome impression.

To add a gift box to your order, simply add at checkout. The special requests box is your friend, please give us as many details of what you are looking for and we will try our best, or get in contact to discuss it with you. 

If you want to bulk order gifts or if you have any trouble please email hello@differentdrop.com or call and we can try and help.

 

If you can't add more wine to your cart it means we are low on stock of that wine. For example, if you are only able to 3 bottles and no more that means we only have 3 bottles left of that wine. If it's a must have, please contact us and we may be able to order more in for you.
