Andrew Jefford

Tasting: Tasmania & Victoria Pinot Noir

Deep, almost meaty aromas, but still Pinot in terms of its lighter red-fruit spectrum. Vivid, searching, pungent wine with plenty of redcurrant fruit. There’s a faintly dry, grassy edge to the finish.

Roger Jones

Tasting: Tasmania & Victoria Pinot Noir

Soft rose petals on nose, savoury truffles, clean precise fruit, well balanced and drinking well now, with delicate aromas.

Alessandro Marchesan

Tasting: Tasmania & Victoria Pinot Noir

Developed and slightly oxidised with notes of farmyard and very pronounced alcohol level. Round and juicy but at the peak of its enjoyment. A structured wine with developed red fruit character.
