Dalrymple Pinot Noir 2019
This Pinot Noir is a blend of different parcels of fruit, from vineyards across the Pipers River region in the northern part of Tasmania. An easterly aspect, red basalt soils, natural flora and cool sea breezes combine to encourage slow and even ripening of the grapes allowing their natural flavours to shine through. Itโs a great wine for any occasion, and goes well with most food styles particularly game, spicy foods and cured meats.
