About the Wine

Vibrant, fresh plummy fruits lifted by a heady mix of florals, low tannin structure, make this a perfect chilled red option over the warmer months.

Winemaking

This 2025 Whitlands Pinot Meunier coming from Clare Burder’s family vineyard. Sitting at 800m above sea level, the elevation plays a huge role in this crunchy, vibrant style of Pinot Meunier. 100% de-stemmed fruit, wild yeast fermented for 22 days in open top fermenters. It was matured in neutral puncheons.

Tasting Notes

Vibrant purple with a perfume of cherry, red plum and sweet red rose. Subtle spice notes; white pepper, star anise and cinnamon quill add intrigue alongside cool herbal nuance.

The palate is light yet layered: juicy red fruits threaded by a fine silty tannin structure and piquant acidity. There’s an undercurrent of mineral, almost saline tension, bringing savoury dimension to the otherwise jubilant fruit. It finishes long, perfumed with red florals and a touch of spice.

A wine of finesse and charm; eminently drinkable at cellar temperature yet equally refreshing with a light chill through the warmer months.

About Fleet Wines

Lisa and Justin Jenkins bring a clear and dynamic vision to their winemaking, with refined palates shaped by over 30 years of combined experience at some of Melbourne’s most iconic wine bars and restaurants. With extensive experience tasting the world’s best wines, the couple have channeled that expertise into crafting wines that are charismatic and full of personality.

In 2016, the couple returned to South Gippsland, Justin’s childhood home, to pursue the winemaking dream and produce small, limited-release wines that capture a moment in time.

Each Fleet wine is a reflection of its origin and varietal, offering a snapshot of a fleeting moment, lovingly crafted by two seasoned professionals who are driven by flavour and vibrancy.
