Flaxmore's gentle north-facing slopes in the Moutere hills are perfectly suited to Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Pinot Gris. Planted in 2008, this family vineyard has an absolute focus on vineyard quality and launched the Flaxmore label in 2018, crafting wines from low-yielding, hand-picked vines. The combination of clay-gravels, climate and attention to detail has resulted in fine, balanced wines which fully express the vineyard's special character: elegant fruit notes with some restraint on the palate. Visit the cellar door; enjoy stunning views on a walk around the vineyard and experience the fascinating art gallery.
