Barringwood Estate Pinot Noir 2025

This comes from some seriously well-regarded sites sitting on basalt soils - the kind of terroir that gives Tassie Pinot serious depth and character. Wild fermented with a portion of whole bunches, then aged in older French oak. Just enough timber to add shape without smothering the fruit. What's in the glass is medium-bodied and beautifully balanced. Red plum and rhubarb lead the charge, backed by clove spice, floral notes and an earthy, savoury edge that keeps things interesting. The tannins are fine and integrated, the fruit layered and expressive and the finish is long and memorable. Just get this thing in your glass, that's all we can say.
