Bogong Estate consists of 25 acres of pinot noir – nothing else. At Bogong Estate they love to share their passion for pinot noir and the beautiful vineyard setting with the valued guests who visit them. The usual cellar door experiences such as wine tastings, french style platters, a glass or two of pinot under a shady tree and a not so vigorous game of petanque are on offer.
They really take pride and enjoy running their Pinot Program. They spend the day with you walking the vineyard, sampling the wine in progress and finally blending and bottling a couple of dozen of your unique blend of pinot noir. The Pinot Program is great for one or more couples and small groups and it can be tailored to suit your needs. The Pinot Program makes a fantastic and unique gift for the wine enthusiasts.
This is a great opportunity to indulge in your winemaking fantasies.
The Tynan family produces a wide range of premium, handmade cool climate Pinot Noirs. The wines are all grown and made on site at Bogong Estate located high in the Kiewa Valley near Mt Beauty and the Falls Creek Ski Resort.
The wine region, Alpine Valleys, has a strong continental climate and is a classic cool climate region. The pinots are hand-picked, crushed, and fermented in small open vats. Since they mainly use wild/natural yeast ferments, it results in full flavours and great character in the wine. In order to gently extract the essence of the cool climate pinot, each batch is hand plunged many times daily and then softly basket pressed. The winemaking is labour intensive, gentle and hopefully, true to the traditions of Burgundy.
