East Coast, Tasmania

Fruit for this wine is sourced from a single vineyard on Tasmania’s central east coast: Blackwood Estate in Cranbrook. Given the right growing conditions, Pinot Noir from the Freycinet Coast displays a more structured style: bold, savoury and terroir-driven. The vines at Blackwood range from five to 30 years old and lie in a mix of granite and hard, rocky, volcanic soils. The fruit fermented with 100% whole berries for seven days before being pressed to seasoned oak to finish. The wine then matured in barrique (15% new) for 10 months.
