Description

Ricky and Ben travelled to Tasmania, including the Tamar Valley near where Ricky spent his youth, to personally select the grapes for this wine.

The Tamar Valley is located in the north of Tasmania, a cool climate wine region synonymous with Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. A diverse region influenced by the Tamar River, with rich and fertile soil and gentle rains that arrive from the Southern Ocean. A renowned region for producing exceptional quality wine.

This Pinot Noir showcases typical Tasmanian Pinot Noir characteristics of savoury, spicy red cherries. An unctuous palate with bright, crunchy fruit, savouriness, and dripping with ripe strawberries. It’s a fine, elegant, structured wine that will have you salivating just thinking about it.

In the 2022 vintage, Tasmania enjoyed a refreshingly cool spring followed by a remarkably warm and consistently favorable growing season, culminating in exceptional ripening conditions and a moderate yield.

Review

This crowd pleasing Tasmanian Pinot Noir ticks all the boxes for this variety. It’s quite full flavoured for Pinot as it delivers lashings of dark cherry, mushroom and fruit compote flavours with toasty oak well integrated into the package. It’s also vibrant and juicy with a lovely soft mouthfeel before settling down to a lengthy, spice-scented finish. You could match it with classics such as duck and quail, but it also has the stuffing to move up into Chinese BBQ pork territory.
