Tasmania Pinot Noir 2022

Stunning pinot and testament to how Tasmania has benefitted from climate change and now taken its place at the top of Australian pinot, along with Yarra, Geelong, and Mornington. The nose is all dusty cherry and deep savoury spice. The palate is elegant, but the impact and concentration of dark cherry fruit is what makes this special. A hint of herbal/vegetal whole bunch. Then the savoury sandalwood kicks in and does not give up. One of the longest finishes i can remember. Cracking. — a year ago

Perli Vineyard Syrah 2018

Assume that’s the vineyard in the inked drawing on the label. Fancy stuff at $48 per bottle…
Lovely deep red to purple color. Smells like musk, woods, campfire on your clothes. Maybe a cranberry or elderberry tone under it all. Interesting smell to it for sure. Flavors are also interesting. Old time tonics and herbal extractions. More elderberry stuff. Absinthe. Or is that Jegermister? The fruit is there too, but it’s under the savory and strange stuff. This is a wine to age. But it’s good now too if you are into the strange and earthy side of Syrah. A true terroir driven drinking experience. I can see the coast valleys of Mendo in the flavors.

Walla Walla Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2014

This was an awesome wine! Currant, mulberry, dark blueberry and tart strawberry fruit red soaked in course tannins, which transformed into a soft pleasant landing during a 3 minute lingering finish. Drew came through! Go COUGS!! — 5 years ago

Drew Bledsoe was not only a great player but also great winemaker! I knew he like this when he poured more generously in his glass than mine 🤪

Morning Dew Vineyard Pinot Noir

Where am I? Somewhere in Quarantini. Who are you drinking with? My sweetie & listening to the Mamas & the Papas. All this is a metaphor for Molly Drew’s 2018 Morning Dew Pinot Noir. Lovely. Even before the pandemic. Much better now. Cheers! — 6 years ago

Domaine A

Cabernet Sauvignon 2013

An excellent aged Cabernet to go with a Scotch Fillet at the local pub in Sorrento on Boxing Day night. Domaine A is living proof that Tasmania does get enough sunshine to ripen Cabernet Sauvignon. All the classic Cabernet descriptors - Cassis Tomato bush, and Tobacco leaf to the fore here. Medium weight with resolving tannins. — 2 years ago

Petit a Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2014

The 2nd wine of Domain A. Been anticipating to try this langton classification and it turned out good. It has that high quality wine nose and palate. Good mineral and balance. Quite enjoyable — 3 years ago

Pepik Tasmania Pinot Noir 2020

Our final lunch in Cairns last Sunday for the boys weekend away. A wonderful lunch at the Salt House on the Cairns waterfront. No formal notes. Pepik is the 2nd label of Josef Chromy from the East coast of Tasmania. Red fruits on nose and palate with a little white pepper. A good match with the superb seafood curry. — 4 years ago

Valenti Ranch Syrah 2015

At a Mendocino wedding stumbled on this tasting room a few years back. Brought this home and last night, well, WOW. More of a Grenache gestalt than Syrah after 90 minute decant, pure and layered red bright berry, some bay leaf. Wish I had another bottle to see how this ages. — 6 years ago

Sailor Seeks Horse

Tasmania Pinot Noir 2015

This has got to be the top Pinot Noir from the Southern Hemisphere. Who else is fighting for the podium?! Chacra in Patigonia has a shot. Burn Cottage from NZ I like. Ochota from Oz is worthy of a podium. But yeah, Sailor is winning gold in my book. — 6 years ago

House of Arras

Grand Vintage Champagne Blend 2008

Tuesday the 26th of January was Australia Day and a public holiday. What better way to celebrate than Australia’s best fizz Arras Grand Vintage from Tasmania. Quite light lemon in colour. Very citrussy and mineral on the nose. 7 years on Lees showing in the complexity of the palate which still shows tension and refreshment. See previous notes for the 2007 which was slightly better and Champion Wine of the Royal Brisbane Show. — 5 years ago
