Somm Note

Winemaker Notes

Bright, cherry aromas are supported by a palate of intense red fruit, crushed raspberry leaf and deep forest flavors. Elegant weight, balanced length and precise fruit definition means the wine finishes with clean minerality.

Ideal pairings include slow roasted duck, cannellini beans and rhubarb pickle or herb and pecorino stuffed portobello mushrooms.

Professional Ratings

    This has fresh and approachable style with aromas of fresh strawberries and cherries, as well as field flowers and a brambly edge. The palate is fresh and lively and offers a very vibrant and drinkable impression with plenty of strawberry flavor.

The d’Soumah range of wines are made with fruit sourced from their own and other premium vineyards throughout the Yarra Valley to produce wines of distinct character and finesse that the region has become famous for. Pinot Noir is the most famous red from the Yarra Valley and is one of the best regions in Australia for producing new age, linear fresh wines. This d’Soumah range is built to deliver an exceptional price for value proposition and we believe this wine certainly delivers on that promise.

Thin-skinned, finicky and temperamental, Pinot Noir is also one of the most rewarding grapes to grow and remains a labor of love for some of the greatest vignerons in Burgundy. Fairly adaptable but highly reflective of the environment in which it is grown, Pinot Noir prefers a cool climate and requires low yields to achieve high quality. Outside of France, outstanding examples come from in Oregon, California and throughout specific locations in wine-producing world. Somm Secret—André Tchelistcheff, California’s most influential post-Prohibition winemaker decidedly stayed away from the grape, claiming “God made Cabernet. The Devil made Pinot Noir.”

Yarra Valley Wine

Victoria, Australia

As the most important area of wine production in Victoria today, the Yarra Valley is most popular for Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, which account for over half of vineyard acreage. A gentle, rolling and rural region alongside the Margaret River, the Yarra Valley has a cool maritime climate with a lengthy growing season, perfect for these cool-climate varieties.

Two styles of Pinot Noir are possible here. The warmer Lower Yarra Valley with sandy, loam soils, produces plush and fruity Pinot Noir while the cooler, higher-elevation Upper Yarra Valley with soils of young red basalt, produces more angular and mineral-driven Pinot Noir.

Yarra Valley Chardonnay is among the best in Australia. To preserve the floral aromatics and fresh citrus flavors for which this area’s Chardonnay is so appreciated, time in barrel is restrained (though barrel fermentation is common). The best Yarra Valley Chardonnays display brilliant acidity, leesy characteristics, citrus, stone fruit and flavors of ginger and spice.

Shiraz and Cabernet find success in parts of this region as well.
