Note di degustazione
The 2018 Estate Pinot Noir shows a slightly smoky, cured-meat edge on the nose, no doubt from a substantial portion of new French oak, alongside hints of sous bois, cherries and beets. The fruit is sweeter and purer than in the Crown Prince bottling, more concentrated and medium-bodied, with ripe, tea-like tannins and bright acids on the lingering finish.

This has a strikingly complex, intense nose with a rich array of cherries and berries, grapefruit and pomegranate, plenty of fruit spice, light pepper and a gently creamy, baking-spice oak thread. The palate has a very rich, intense delivery of beautifully ripe red cherries, framed in fine yet sturdy tannins. Long, fresh and energetic finish. Drink or hold.
Informazioni sul produttore
Bass Phillip has been quietly making world-class Chardonnay and Pinot Noir in Leongatha, South Gippsland, since the 1990s. The estate’s wines were long sold almost exclusively in Australia, meaning that the producer remains relatively little-known beyond its native shores.
