Brilliant medium red color.Fragrant strawberry, floral, licorice aromatics. Vibrant character and near its peak. Stylistically, somewhere between Oregon and Burgundy for Pinot Noir. Mid-weight with medium length. Light tannins. Will easily hold and improve for 2 years. This is the first Tasmanian Pinot Noir that I can remember tasting. I’m impressed! Bought this at a wine store in Richmond, Tasmania while on a cruise to New Zealand and Australia. Packed in my suit case for my trip back to the U.S. it was worth the trouble! If I had tasted this blind I would have guessed it was a village Cote de Nuits.

The colour is medium ruby. The intensity is medium (+). The aromas are rose, red cherry, red currant, strawberries, forest floor, mushrooms, meat. The wine developing. The wine has medium (+) acidity, medium tannins, the body is medium, the alcohol is medium. The intensity is pronounced with a medoum(+) finish. The flavours are rose, red cherry, red currant, strawberries, forest floor, mushrooms, meat and pepper. The wine is outstanding. Drink now but has potential for aging.

3 hour decant and hugely benefited from it. Sour cherry. Wonderfully elegant, complex, Burgundian.
