About this bottle

Product Description: 
Enticing aromas of ripe plum, red cherry and Christmas cake spice. Dried fruit aromas build with some savoury notes after the wine has been opened for several hours. The aromas continue through onto the palate accompanied with the softness of silky tannins, fine acidity and spiced fruit cake, matched with clove and ripe plum. The finish lingers with enduring acidity.

House style for their entry level Pinot Noirs is as follows - Each of the parcels were picked based on their merit. Fermentation started after two to three days and continued for four to five days. The cap was plunged several times a day to extract colour and tannin from the skins. The wine was then pressed and settled before being placed into French oak barriques, some malolactic fermentation took place prior to filtration and bottling.

Maker:
Since the first black cluster vines were available for purchase from Tasmania in 1827, Tasmania has been recognised as a producer of quality Pinot Noir. It was the sloping hills overlooking Bass Strait that made the site unique and inspired the Hill-Smith family to purchase the vineyard, along with distinct single sites around Tasmania in their pursuit to produce the perfect single site Pinot. Dalrymple Pinot Noir is a blend of parcels from our own vineyards at Pipers River and Coal River Valley, and our growers at Swansea and Ouse. Each site is unique with distinctive individual terroirs, building complexity into the final blend.
 
Vineyard:
The 2018 vintage growing season began with above average temperatures and low rainfall throughout spring. This resulted in early flowering and good grape set. The warm, dry conditions continued to the end of February before a week of cool weather and welcomed rainfall. The weather then returned to warm, dry conditions that continued beyond harvest into May.
