Located in the heart of the Coal River Valley, Nocton produces award winning wine which truly reflects the regions cool climate. The 34ha Nocton Vineyard was planted in 1999 on gentle, north-east facing slopes of dolerite-based soils over a free-draining calcareous and Triassic sandstone subsoil. As in Burgundy, home to the great pinot and chardonnay vineyards of France, limestone also runs through the valley and was mined in the early days. It is the combination of these soils and substrata that imparts the great depth of colour and much of the character and texture typically displayed in Nocton wines.
