Pimpernel Vineyards is a family business, and the realisation of our long held dream to develop an iconic Yarra Valley vineyard, capable of producing outstanding individual wines.
Our philosophy is simple – marry a great site with the best varieties and clones. Dry land cultivation techniques produce intensely flavoured wines which fully express our site and its climate. To ensure the best results viticulture is carried out by hand – cane pruning, shoot thinning, canopy management and selective harvesting allow us to respond optimally to the nuances of each vintage.
In the cellar, winemaking interventions are minimized to maximise expression of our terroir. Fruit is received in individual parcels and fermented in barrriques or small open topped vats allowing close attention to the subtleties of each lot’s journey. As the wines mature in barrel their progress is followed with a similar level of attention to detail. Taking the classic estate approach Pimpernel wines are bottled, labelled and packed in the cellar with our own hands.
