The Wine
Halliday awarded the Yarra icon Giant Steps both Winery of the Year 2025 and Best Pinot Noir 2025. Phil Sexton is the founder – he moved from Margaret River to the Yarra Valley to find the perfect climate for Burgundian varieties Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. A mad jazz fan, he named his estate after John Coltrane’s album, a fitting tribute to the great leap he’d made. He planted vines in six areas and makes both single vineyard and Yarra Valley wines showing off the best of the region. Long time a fan of this great estate, Mel Chester joined as winemaker in 2021. This is a 50/50 split of Upper and Lower Yarra handpicked fruit, part whole bunch fermented, and all aged in French oak (10% new) for 8 months. A very fine, silky, elegant red.
