A
Tasmanian pinot noir for under $20? Surely you jest? This is a really good buy: a vibrant young pinot “from a vineyard outside
Launceston” that is the result of
Hoddles Creek winemaker
Franco d’Anna snapping up some excess fruit at a bargain price - something we may see more of with increased plantings coming online in the island state. This bright, vivacious and immediately appealing pinot has aromas of
ripe strawberries and some spicy notes, while the palate has
berry compote fruit notes and some impressive structure. Fruit driven with some old oak influence; spent some time on skins and is unfined and unfiltered. One for enjoying over the short term, but a seriously good buy for
$20.
