$348.00 GST Included

SHIPPING AUSTRALIA WIDE

This Tasmanian pinot noir is full of bright red fruit, delicate but with plenty of finesse. Elegant aromas of raspberry, rose petal and subtle savoury notes. Intense upfront raspberry, with a balanced acidity and tannin structure guiding flavours of savoury cherry and oak spice to a long, driven finish.

Hand-picked in mid-April, a late year it was, fruit was crushed and destemmed to press and only the free-run juice was collected and cold settled for this wine. Juice pH was 3.14, the year was cold, and acids were high. Settled juice was warmed an inoculated and once fermentation started was transferred to new French oak hogs heads.

During fermentation a Malo culture was started and added to barrels at the end of primary fermentation. By the end of Malo lactic fermentation, wine pH was up to 3.40, barrels topped and kept on minimal Sulphur until October, being stirred monthly.

About Us

Pipers River & Tamar Valley | Tasmania

It is a little known fact that Tasmania is the oldest wine producing region in Australia. Pipers River is Tasmania’s northernmost wine region, with the river flowing from Mount Arthur northwards into the Bass Strait, with the more fertile Tamar Valley neighbouring it to the west. Pipers River is often grouped in with Tamar Valley – nevertheless, Tasmanian wine connoisseurs hold the Pipers River name independently in high regard.

The climate here is a huge factor in the quality of the wines and Pipers River has high sunshine hours, making it excellent for viticulture. Cool winds from the Bass Strait keep temperatures moderated in the sunny vineyards, providing a long, reasonably cool growing season that ensures that the grapes retain their acidity as they ripen.
