This website is both the home of the Whisson Lake Vineyard and a hub for the global Pinot Noir community. We invite you to find out more about our unique patch of land and to become involved with our work to promote Pinot Noir culture across the world. There are sections devoted to recent news from Burgundy, Oregon, Otago...and the Adelaide Hills, of course! and other sections for your tasting notes, Pinot Noir events and even a regularly updated list of Pinot Noir links. To your good health!

 


On our website at the moment...

Spring update, "Singing in the rain (and hail)!" (September 29 2009).

For all farmers - not just winegrowers - it is a blessing to start the new agricultural year with plenty of the wet stuff falling from above and squelching beneath your boots - and so it is in Spring 2009. It is the foundation of our vines' growth and brings the leaves that will make the grapes sweet as well as providing shade for this same fruit when the warmth of summer arrives. Even the odd shower of hail helps to top up the saturated ground - H20 is always welcome no matter what form it arrives in!
