Pipers Brook Estate Pinot Noir 2023 is a selection of only the best parcels across five Pinot Noir vineyards — each adding a layer of complexity and character to a wine of genuine depth and distinction. Sourced from sites at Pipers Brook and Strathlynn on the west bank of the Tamar River, with pioneering clonal and mass selection vines ageing up to 40 years, this is a Tasmanian Pinot Noir of lifted aromatics, concentrated red and dark cherry fruit, fine velvety tannins, and lasting intensity. Bottled under screwcap to preserve the intensely perfumed aromatics and expressive fruit character.

Appearance

Bright, clear ruby — the vivid, youthful colour of a Tasmanian Pinot Noir of genuine freshness and concentration.

Aroma

Lifted and perfumed — red fruits and dark cherry lead a bouquet of real elegance and intrigue, with delicate floral notes, earthiness, and exotic spice weaving through in layers of genuine complexity.

Palate

Concentrated layers of red berries and dark cherry fruits with hints of subtle spice open a palate of wonderful texture and depth. The mid-palate is rich and satisfying, with fine velvety tannins and a lasting intensity that speaks of old vines, careful site selection, and nine months of lees ageing in French oak.

Pairs With

Duck breast, salmon, roast chicken, mushroom risotto, and pinot-friendly charcuterie. A Tasmanian Pinot Noir of genuine versatility and elegance that suits the table as much as the occasion.

Winemaking Notes

Whole bunches were carefully de-stemmed with berries remaining intact, then fermented in small open vats using a combination of wild and inoculated yeast, with 10% whole bunch included in the ferment. A combination of hand plunging and pumping over was employed throughout fermentation. The wine was gently pressed in a state-of-the-art basket press and aged on lees in French oak barrels in cool underground cellars for nine months before bottling under screwcap to preserve the intensely perfumed aromatics and expressive fruit.

Vineyard Notes

Sourced from two distinct growing areas — Pipers Brook, with its Ferrosol (volcanic) soils close to Bass Strait and subject to strong maritime influences, and Strathlynn on the west bank of the Tamar River, 70 km away, where Vertosol (black cracking clay) soils on hillside slopes offer protection from prevailing westerly winds and warm, settled, relatively dry growing conditions. Both soil types have excellent water-holding capacity, providing a steady supply of moisture and nourishment throughout the growing season. Pioneering clonal and mass selection vines ageing up to 40 years consistently deliver the concentration and depth of character that define the Pipers Brook Estate Pinot Noir. All fruit is hand-picked and hand-sorted. Vines are grown on VSP trellising to maximise sun exposure and achieve full ripeness with well-balanced flavours and fine, ripe tannins.
