A gorgeous savoury red fruited extravaganza. Herbal notes from whole bunches in the fermentation (50%). This certainly has become an instant hit as a top quality Pinot Noir from the Coal River Tasmania but owned by Shaw + Smith from the Adelaide Hills. Interesting to try 2 quality Pinots from the same vintage (2015) on successive nights. The Tolpuddle won over Yarra Yering in this bout, marginally.

second time trying this vintage. after being able to brace myself for that signature lardot acidity, which verges on violent, i came to enjoy this a lot more. herbal stuff starts jumping out after about 45 min or so. texturally very exciting as well. miles away from classic but that's the real beauty here. — 7 months ago
