97+ Points - Philip Rich Giant Steps has forged a reputation as one of the Yarra Valley's leading wineries, with their Pinot Noir and Chardonnay consistently among the nation's finest examples. Named 'Winery Of The Year' in the 2025 Halliday Wine Companion, Giant Steps continues to produce some stunning cool-climate wines. The Giant Steps Primavera Vineyard Pinot Noir is a premium, single-vineyard Pinot Noir sourced from Lou Primavera’s vineyard in Woori Yallock in the Upper Yarra Valley. Known as one of the most floral, graceful, and fragrant Pinot Noir in the Giant Steps portfolio, it consistently stands out for its elegance and bright red-fruit character. "97+ Points. From Lou Primavera's '01-planted vineyard at 300m on red volcanic soils in Woori Yallock. A deep, bright crimson. A more concentrated and brooding Primavera. Aromas of damson plum, dark raspberry, lightly crushed violets and star anise. It's concentrated on the palate, too, with persistent and textured tannins that'll ensure this ages slowly and gracefully over a decade or more. Different from but equally as good as the Bastard Hill, which shares the same soil but is at higher elevation. $105. Drink: 2027 - 2037. Screwcap"- Philip Rich, Halliday Wine Companion.
