From the gamut of the estate’s organically farmed Pinot Noir blocks planted in 1976, 1997 and 2004 to MV6, 114 and 115 clones, 1314 is a bona fide mini–Bannockburn Pinot. As is always the case, this wine sees a healthy slug of fruit from the iconic close-planted blocks (Serré and De La Terre) and comprises a selection of barrels chosen for their freshness and early-drinking appeal. The fruit fermented with 25% bunches, and a small portion was handled carbonically. The wine matured in hogsheads (20% new) for eight months. The savoury depth and pure, potent flavour so characteristic of this estate are writ large. It’s jam-packed with berries and spice, with earthy depth and some dusty rose mingling in the background. Punchy and silky in equal measure, this is classic Bannockburn Pinot with drink-me-now appeal.

Reviews

“A blend of estate fruit planted in 1976, 1997 and 2004. 25% whole bunches and 20% new oak. A pleasing crimson red. The whole bunches announce themselves the moment you pick up the glass. Aromas of tea rose and bramble together with some spiced cherries and raspberries lead onto the moreish and flavourful palate. This also has the structure to see this become softer and more complex over the next 3–4 years.”

“There’s plenty of interest here but then, that’s always the case with the wines of Bannockburn. This is a twiggy, autumnal Pinot Noir with spice, earth, ash, snapped twig and cola characters running through pure, sweet red cherry fruit flavour. It’s light-ish but there’s enough to satisfy, and the drinkability factor is high enough for me to polish off a bottle solo over the course of two nights. It’s a wine that isn’t too taxing, but still has plenty going on.”
