Leads with tart red and black fruits in the Tassie Pinot way, opens up to show some forest floor and warm spice. Subtle oak. With fruit up front and some complexity evolving this is good and I can see why it did well at shows. I'm not convinced it's 97pts and National Show champion trophy good, but it is good.

Really liked this wine. Cigar box unexpectedly on first nose. Rich but light red in colour. Low tannins and a sweet acidic but strangely sweet aromatic aftertaste. Had with some pasta with bolognese beef sauce.

Nice. Light to Medium bodied. Nicely structured. Dark cherry, fine tannins and balanced acidity. Overall a good package.

Wine Selectors 50 Best Tasting (Wharf 2 13 Hickson Road Millers Point): Again struck match reductiveness over savoury black fruits showing predominantly cherry and plum. Sourly juicy acidity lends the fruit a more red hued quality on the palate, wetly dilute, textured burr. Meh

Tassie regional blend. Fruit forward, oak not dominant. Very drinkable but I would expect a few extra years should provide some extra complexity.

Grape, Grain and Graze Festival (Sydney showgrounds, Sydney): Struck match, black over red berry, savoury spice notes and a smidge of gameyness. Juicy, tannins are slightly high for the fruit, a little tangy underpin. Hmm.
