100% hand-harvested and rigorously hand-selected in the vineyard. Upon arrival at the winery, the specific processing method for each batch is determined based on the cultivar, vineyard, vineyard maturity, and flavor profile. Whole-cluster fermentation batches are carried out under warm conditions with minimal agitation, lasting 14 days. Destemmed whole-grain batches undergo a 3-day cold maceration, followed by warming to initiate fermentation naturally. All cap management employs gravity draining and backwashing for gentle extraction, followed by pressing.

Each batch is then transferred by gravity to French oak barrels for malolactic fermentation, with lees retained for aging. After eight months (10% new barrels, 90% old barrels), the batches are blended in the spring, and then bottled by gravity in December without clarification or filtration.

The Circle of Fifths series blends grapes from individual vineyards in roughly equal proportions—comprised of batches not selected for the single-vineyard wines that year. These batches combine the strengths of each unique vineyard to tell a new story. "If the single-vineyard wines are the pure notes of each vineyard, then Circle of Fifths is the chord that strings them together." — Melanie Chester

The aroma is bursting with wild black cherry, raspberry, blackberry, and blueberry, accompanied by spicy and floral notes of star anise, licorice, violet, hibiscus, rose petals, and cherry blossom, with hints of leather, tobacco, and olive oil. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied with firm yet smooth tannins, bright and lively acidity, and a significantly higher concentration of fruit than its Pinot Noir counterparts. The finish offers complexity through the interplay of acidity and tannins, resulting in a solid overall structure.

【Halliday Wine Companion 96】

Gently brooding with aromas of wild black cherries and raspberries along with some whole-bunch–derived fennel seed spice and a touch of violets. Concentrated, with far more stuffing that the Yarra Pinot. Ripe, suave tannins ensure this will be worth cellaring for at least five to eight years.

【James Suckling 95】

This delicate and perfumed pinot is a blend of equal parts from five single-vineyard bottlings. Aromas of maraschino cherries, crushed stones, hibiscus, violets and flowers. The palate is mid-weighted with tightly wound tannins and bright acidity, giving notes of blackberry bushes, blueberries, red apple skins and spices.

【Wine Advocate 92】

TThe wine leads with rose petal perfume, cherry blossom, red apple, star anise, pomegranate, licorice and dried sage, with leather, tobacco and tapenade to close. In the mouth, there is a lot going on, yet I find the intersection of acidity and tannin through the finish to skew and occlude the flow of both thought and flavor.

In Australia's Yarra Valley, a region renowned as one of the world's best wine-producing areas for cool-climate climates, lies a winery named after a jazz melody—Giant Steps. Not only a legend in the Australian wine world, it also garnered significant attention in 2025, winning both the "Winery of the Year" and "Best Pinot Noir" awards at the Halliday Wine Companion.

Giant Steps' story began in 1997 when founder Phil Sexton, a brewing pioneer from Margaret River, was drawn to the Yarra Valley by his passion for wine, seeking the ideal place to cultivate pure and elegant Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.

Phil is not only a winemaker but also a passionate jazz enthusiast. He named the winery after John Coltrane's classic album *Giant Steps*, hoping it would emulate the album's revolutionary "giant steps" in the world of wine.

In 2003, winemaker Steve Flamsteed joined Phil, initiating a single-vineyard winemaking project focused on expressing the terroir of different plots in the Yarra Valley. In 2021, the talented Mel Chester took over as Director of Winemaking and Viticulture, leading the winery to new heights. With a focus on grape selection and a commitment to restoring Château Haut-Brion wines to the quality and image of the early 20th century, he has established new milestones for the winery's style and reputation.

The Yarra Valley boasts the oldest viticultural history in Victoria, with a cool climate and diverse geology. Giant Steps currently owns and manages several top single vineyards within the Yarra Valley, each piece of land contributing a unique character to its wines.

Giant Steps' winemaking philosophy can be summarized in two words: Purity and Finesse. The winery adheres to sustainable development and organic farming, respecting the natural growth of the grapes.

In the winemaking process, the winery employs a low-intervention approach:

· 100% hand-harvested: ensuring the quality of every single grape.

· Local yeast fermentation: utilizing a natural microbial ecosystem to promote fermentation by local yeasts, adding complexity.

· Gravity Flow: in a modern gravity-flow winery, using physical principles to gently treat the wine, avoiding rough pumping.

· Minimal clarification and filtration: preserving the wine's most original flavors and textures.
