IronHouse Vineyard Pinot Noir
From the moment of bottling, this wine presents beauty and strength with delicacy. As a classically structured Tasmanian single block red, this wine is in no way to be taken lightly, albeit being a subtle and soft red. To start with, the magnificent ruby colour is a treat for the eye with delightful cherry and dark stone fruits, white flesh plum, soft black tea and white pepper present on tasting, possibly a larger nose than front palate yet delivering a great depth of the varietal.
Chatto Mania Pinot Noir
A classic Pinot Noir that's bright and lifted, with red and dark cherry fruit flavour laced with subtle cedar spice and a cool minerality.

Riversdale Estate Scorpio Pinot Noir
Freshness and an easy flow - red petals drifting down a slow-moving river, perhaps. There's a little whiff of umami on the first smell, vegemite maybe, but it quickly blows off. Black cherry, davidson plum, crushed pomegranate and cooking chocolate - there's a nice mix of bright and brooding fruit. Satiny tannins please the palate before turning savoury and some notes of tart red fruits spring up in the back palate with the acid to add complexity. Very much a Pinot to drink now. Drink: 2022-2024. Price: $35. Rating: 90/100.
