Westella is the side hustle of well-known Tasmanian wine identity Willy Adkins and his wife Jacq. They grow pinot noir, and only pinot, at their small family vineyard at Rowella at the northern end of the Tamar Valley, producing sparkling wines, rosé and this very impressive table pinot that is singing in its youth. It is beautifully poised, impressively balanced and definitely varietal. So think quality cool-climate pinot at optimum ripeness. Three different clones are co-fermented and given a short time in French oak barriques. This paired impressively with rabbit cacciatore and is great value at around $45. https://westellavineyard.com.au/
