Nikau Pinot Noir 2024 is a natural wine from Nikau Farm, the home estate of Dane and Hannah Johns of Momento Mori, in the Baw Baw area of Gippsland, Victoria, Australia. This (incredible) RARE red wine is made with 100% Pinot Noir grapes from their Home Block.

About Nikau Farm by Dane and Hannah Johns

Nikau Farm is where Dane and Hannah live and grow their own vines. The soils are compacted sandstone from ancient seabeds, under a layer of fertile loam.

Production Process of Nikau Pinot Noir 2024

We hear the grapes were hand sorted and destemmed, given a 48 hour cold soak and then 10 days on skins with one light pump over a day. The wine was pressed to stainless steel, where it rested for 9 months, and was bottled by hand with 10ppm SO2 added.

Tasting Notes for Nikau Pinot Noir 2024

Oh my lord... what a wine!!! Firstly, this has an incredible and rather insane nose! Think Homemade Tomato Ketchup, freshly cut raw potato, balsamic pops and herbs too. On the palate, it retains its unique profile with super concentrated berry fruit, tar, black cherry, pomegranate, chocolate, liquorice, thyme and more. This is an amazing wine to share for a totally unique experience. REALLY GREAT!!!

We ship every Wednesday. Order by Tuesday 10am.

NATURAL WINES BY NIKAU

Nikau is the other half of Momento Mori. Same winemaker, different fruit: Momento Mori is made from grapes Dane Johns buys in from growers across Victoria, while Nikau is what comes off his own land. He and his wife Hannah own around 95 acres in the Baw Baw country of Gippsland, on ranges known to the Indigenous people of the area as Tolone, where fertile loam sits over compacted sandstone formed from ancient sea beds.

Only two small plots are planted, both around 27 years old. The Home Block is Pinot Noir at about 350 metres, on its own roots with roughly seven clones interplanted through it. The Tolone block sits on the highest hill, west-facing, on thinner loam that drains faster, planted mainly to Riesling with a few Chardonnay vines among it. Yields have run under 250 grams of fruit per vine, which makes fewer than 500 bottles from each site. In the cellar no sulphur goes in, and neither does anything else. No oak, no pumps, long cool wild ferments in stainless steel, and bottling by hand straight off the tank.

I never had a problem with one of their orders, the packaging was always perfect and they always added something as a surprise that was always welcoming (I'm still using the wine cloth).
