2025 Basket Range Wine 'Banksia' Pinot Noir

About the Wine

Banksia is named after the Banksia trees that line the headland of the two Pinot Noir blocks at the Broderick's estate, both of which receive a gorgeous bathing of afternoon sun.

Sholto destemmed around 90% of the fruit this vintage, leaving approx 10% for whole bunch fermentation with approximately two weeks maceration on skins. The wine was matured for 11 months in French oak.

The 2025 is an elegant expression, with violets and earthiness interlaced with savoury notes and bright red fruits. The sites always yield the earthy, forest floor qualities typical of the Adelaide Hills. Excellent fruit density and bright acidity give it a lovely drinkability.

About Basket Range Wines

Basket Range Wine is a family-run winery and vineyard in the heart of the Adelaide Hills.

Led by second-generation winemaker Sholto Broderick, and alongside his parents Phillip and Mary, they’ve been nurturing this land and crafting wines here since the 1980s. Every bottle tells the story of their land, reflecting the uniquely steep and rugged Basket Range hillsides they call home.

Phillip’s sons Louis and Sholto grew up in the vineyard, working alongside their father from a young age. After formally studying viticulture and oenology, Sholto Broderick took over in 2016. He now manages manages the vineyard and winery.

Despite its small size, the 13.5-acre Basket Range vineyard undulates across multiple hillsides, creating varied aspects and diverse soils that develop interesting flavours and winemaking.

The entire vineyard is farmed using sustainable practices, preserving healthy soil microbiology and allowing a diversity of plants and insects. The focus is vineyard longevity and sustainable viticulture.
