95 Points - Philip Rich
Rob Hall was a winemaker at the esteemed Mount Mary vineyard for over 10 vintages, and during that time it's safe to assume he gained great insight into how to make top class Yarra Valley wine. After departing Mount Mary, Rob Hall launched his eponymous label, with a focus on making Yarra Valley varietals to be enjoyed in their youth at a very reasonable price point.
The 2025 Rob Hall Pinot Noir is produced from a blend of five Yarra Valley vineyards; Harriet’s Vineyard, Full Moon, Boat O’Craigo, Nenagh Park and Willowlake. Displaying lovely aromatics and intensity with plenty of cherry, cranberry, and a touch of spice. The palate is fresh, very approachable and excellent concentration of fruit. Another high quality Yarra Valley Pinot from Rob Hall that offers super value-for-money at this price.
"95 Points. Mainly destemmed with a small number of whole bunches. Light bright crimson. Delicate and perfumed with strawberry, rose and lavender. The palate is equally delicate, with lovely persistence and balanced, svelte tannins. Finishes silky and long. A lovely and well-priced wine to drink now and over the next two to three years. 13.5% alc. Drink: 2026 - 2030. Screwcap"- Philip Rich, Halliday Wine Companion.
