(2024) From Tasmania's Pipers River region in the north of the island, soils are red basalt and this wine was matured in French oak barriques (24% new). The estate was purchased by the Hill-Smith Family who also own Jansz, one of Tasmania's top sparkling wine producers. Garnet in colour, it has real Pinosity with a sappy, autumnal truffly character over cherry and raspberry fruit. Some chocolate and spicy oak notes add complexity. In the mouth it walks a line between fresh, raspberry-like keen fruit and something more luxurious and dark, soft, sweet and plush tannins and cherry acidity keeping it fresh into a moderately long and spicy finish.
(2017) An undergrowth and truffle quality, lots of incense like exoticism grip, violet and a touch of rich Manuka honey, a lovely racing acidity and savoury.
(2017) 10% whole bunch-pressed and 15% new oak used for maturation. A bit closed and slightly bound sulphur character, though really sweet fruit beneath, with lovely texture and breadth on the palate, nice bit of grip but good fruit sweetness to the end.
(2017) Lovely creaminess and fudge like layer of oak and sweet fruit, with the palate ripe and creamy, with a sweet berry and milk chocolate texture, a fairly abrupt acid and tannin core, but fine.
