The 2021 Estate Pinot Noir is a quintessential expression of the Huon Valley’s cool-climate prowess, emerging from a vintage that provided ideal ripening conditions without extreme heat. In the glass, it reveals a vibrant ruby hue, leading into a highly aromatic profile where pure wild strawberry and dark cherry fruits are layered with complex notes of exotic spice, bramble, and forest floor.

On the palate, the wine is plush and mouth-filling, balancing its natural concentration with a "bright line of natural acidity" (Dave Brookes) that provides remarkable verve and cadence. Sourced from estate-grown fruit with a subtle 3% whole-bunch inclusion and ten months in French oak, the structure is defined by fine, chalky tannins and a sophisticated, savoury depth that carries through to a long, elegant finish.
