This vineyard consistently produces \"masculine, powerful Pinot Noir\" each year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe vineyard is situated on a gentle, north-facing slope formed by ancient volcanic eruptions, receiving prolonged afternoon sunlight. The soil primarily consists of coarse schist gravel, providing excellent drainage, allowing the own-rooted old vines to establish deep root systems. No irrigation is used.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe name \"Tinker's\" is derived from \"Tink,\" the nickname of Rippon's founder, Rolfe Mills.
