Dalrymple Vineyards Pinot Noir 2024

An elegant and expressive Tasmanian Pinot Noir, offering inviting aromas of fresh cranberry, ripe tamarillo and toasted spice, developing earthy notes and dark plum with time in the glass. The palate is beautifully balanced, with generous dark fruit, subtle herbal complexity and vibrant cool-climate acidity. Fine tannins and a gentle touch of oak spice provide structure and depth, leading to a long, lingering finish.

Winemaking: Crafted by winemaker Peter Caldwell from carefully selected parcels across Pipers River, Coal River Valley and Ouse, each contributing distinctive characteristics to the final blend. Fermentation included 5–20% whole bunches, depending on the vineyard site, with regular plunging to gently extract colour and tannin. The wine was matured for nine months in French oak barriques, including 20% new oak, with malolactic fermentation occurring in barrel.

Food Match: Baked gnocchi with wild mushrooms and parmesan béchamel, roast pork with pistachio stuffing, duck breast with plum sauce or herb-roasted chicken.
