Freycinet Vineyard

Tasmania Pinot Noir 2009

After decanting initial notes of honeycomb. A good combination of root vegetable notes and savoury red fruits. Great palate intensity without weight. An excellent example of a 10 year old Tasmanian Pinot. Freycinet is on the East Coast of Tasmania and their Pinot Noir is a regular purchase for me. Capable of ageing for 15 years plus. — 7 years ago

Moss Wood

Moss Wood Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2002

One of life's great Food/Wine matches is a Tasmanian Grass fed Rib Fillet matched with an aged top quality Margaret River Cabernet Sauvignon. Very herbaceous. If you like a bit more Blackberry fruit in your Cabernets one should have drunk this about 8 years ago. This is savoury and showing its 14 years of age. Very classy but needs more fruit for more points. — 9 years ago

Avance Tasmania Pinot Noir

Wonderful Tasmanian Pinot Noir. Light gorgeous colour, wonderful fruit on the nose (strawberries, cherries, blackberry, black currant) with a wonderful sweet and spicy medium bodied taste - very silky tannins. Extraordinary value — 7 years ago

Bourgogne Hautes Côtes de Nuits Pinot Noir

Vive la France! Red wine with fish? Hell yes... This nailed it with organic Tasmanian salmon. Darker looking than it taste... Which was an as it should be medium light Bourgogne. — 9 years ago

Bream Creek

Riesling 2012

Fantastic example of Tasmanian Riesling. With three years of bottle age, this has mellowed out into a more sophisticated and interesting wine. Fresh on the nose and smooth on the finish. At this price point, nothing else comes close and thankfully is devoid of some of the overpowering citrus that comes with younger Rieslings. — 10 years ago

Tolpuddle Vineyard

Tasmania Pinot Noir 2013

At a recent tasting at Berry Bros London of MWs this wine received a lot of praise. Initial toffee oak notes with a hint of cinnamon. A spotlessly clean palate reflecting the purity of Tasmanian wines. Light to medium weight palate yet good concentration. A delicious wine to be admired. 18. #aussiewine — 10 years ago

Clemens Hill Vineyard

Cellar Release Pinot Noir 2015

This is just the Pinot Noir but that choice not available from Delectable. Quite dense in colour. Notes of beetroot and rhubarb on nose and palate. Full lush and delicious. A great discovery from the annual Tasmanian Pinot expo at the Pinot Shop in Launceston which we visited a few months ago. Exceptional QPR at $35. Some savoury aspects - suspect a % of whole bunch. Soft and flavoursome from a good vintage. Similar notes to a 2nd bottle 171 weeks later on 2/2/22. Quite a rich Pinot and thoroughly delicious. Luckily I have 4 left. — 7 years ago

Ca' Rugate

Amarone della Valpolicella Corvina Blend 2014

Deep rich Crimson. Touch of vanilla after decanting which blew off. Notes of Pipe Tobacco Baking spices and mineral. Was worried about the 2014 vintage which was poor in many parts of Italy but the process of Passito and the added concentration turned this into a wonderful wine. Perfect with Linguini Reggiano and fresh Tasmanian fine Truffle slices in the finest Olive Oil Bellissimo!! — 8 years ago
