Quality Pinot at a Quaffing Price

Expressive, grounded, powerful, playful. This is an exceptional Pinot Noir sourced from a single vineyard in Charleston. Red and purple aromatics lead to a powerful yet aquiline palate offering roses, cherries, violets, spice, must and toastiness. The palate is long and the tannin finish fine. The acidity elevates the fruit. Exceptional.

This is high altitude, cool climate Pinot made in the Burgundian tradition. It is estate grown, hand harvested. whole bunch fermented and foot stomped, then spends 6 months in new French oak. It's superb already and will unleash layers of complexity as it ages. Our average score on the tasting panel was nudging 96, which is pretty unusual.

Mid-weight, easy drinking and varietal, this offers spice, cherries, violet, red fruits, beetroot, savoury characters and plenty of relatively fine tannins. It is super easy to drink but could be cellared for 5 years we reckon.

The Sabre is always an excellent wine, but as UK wine writer Matthew Jukes says of the '24, 'one of the finest value Pinots on Earth'. There is an expressive red fruited perfume here, spice and red fruits, black cherry, smoke and more on the palate and exceptional length.

Tassie Pinot- yay! Pricetag - groan! Not this time! $35 a bottle for this lovely Tassie Pinot, and we can do mate's rates too. Lots going on here from redcurrants and cherry, spice, herbs and cedar. Slightly bigger and riper than the average Tassie Pinot, this is a generous and seductive mouthful that definitely inspires a second glass..
