Description
Helen's Hill is a 150 acre property in Coldstream with some of the finest views of the Yarra Valley. The Long Walk Pinot Noir is made primarily from carefully selected rows in the largest block of Pinot Noir on the property. Each of the 120 rows is 520 meters long, so when tending the vines one is in for a long walk!
The last nine vintages of the Long Walk Pinot Noir (vintages 2012 to 2021) have all received a Special Value Star ★ in the Halliday Wine Companion. The Long Walk must surely rival the Hoddles Creek Estate Pinot Noir as the best value Pinot Noir to come out of the Yarra Valley.
"Estate-grown MV6, 113 and 114 clone grapes have come together in a top vintage to provide a pinot that has both depth and length to its display of dark plum and cherry fruit, French oak having its say, as do fine tannins - all in tune with each other." James Halliday

Victoria
Victoria is home to more than 800 wineries across 21 wine regions. The regions are Alpine Valley, Beechworth, Bendigo, Geelong, Gippsland, Glenrowan, Goulburn Valley, Grampians, Heathcote, Henty, King Valley, Macedon Ranges, Mornington Peninsula, Murray Darling, Pyrenees, Rutherglen, Strathbogie Ranges, Sunbury, Swan Hill, Upper Goulburn and Yarra Valley.
Victoria's first vines were planted at Yering in the Yarra Valley in 1838. By 1868 over 3,000 acres had been planted in Victoria, establishing Victoria as the premier wine State of the day. Today, the original vineyards planted at Best's Wines are among the oldest and rarest pre-phylloxera plantings in the world.
Victoria's climate varies from hot and dry in the north to cool in the south and each wine region specialises in different varietals. For example, Rutherglen in the north is famous for its opulent Muscats and Topaque and bold reds, while the many cooler climate regions near Melbourne produce world class Chardonnay and pinot Noir. Victoria is truly a wine lover's playground.
