The flagship Pinot Noir from one of Western Australia’s most acclaimed producers, the 2022 Tête de Cuvée is a wine of rare poise and depth. Handcrafted from the Picardy estate’s best parcels, it’s a brooding, structured release that will reward serious time in the cellar.
Aromatically, the wine is layered and restrained — notes of blood plum, dark cherry, forest berries and woodsy spice unfold gradually. Beneath that lies earthy complexity: black tea, petrichor, graphite and brown spice.
On the palate, it’s coiled and concentrated, with a mineral core of dark cherry giving drive and lift. Fine, tightly wound tannins support a long finish, with acidity that brings freshness and balance.

Boccaccio Cellars offers real time shipping rates at checkout. These are heavily subsidised rates directly from Australia Post and will vary depending on your postcode.
Unfortunately, due to the ever increasing costs of postage we are unable to offer free shipping any longer. Postal increases have seen the average box of wine range from $30-$60, which can represent up to 500% of the cost of the average bottle of wine.
Your postal costs are calculated on the following factors:
- Where in Australia you are shipping to (Where rural postcodes obviously attract a higher charge)
- What in Australia you are shipping (Beer and water for example, are calculated in real time without any additional subsidy. This is because the margins for these products are minimal). Dry goods attract a discounted flat fee of $12 per carton (Calculated by gross weight).
Pickups on all items are encouraged.
