Kelvedon Estate
Pinot Noir
East Coast, Tasmania, Australia
See previous notes - this is a big flavoursome Pinot Noir. Red and Black cherries - a little toffee (oak) but largely integrated. Medium plus bodied palate with stewed fruits like rhubarb - medium minus acid. A mouthful of flavour and a great winter Pinot Noir. Tasted 24 weeks later on 3rd December 2021. Consistent notes - raspberry and rich cherry - medium plus bodied - a Shiraz drinkers Pinot - on the large size. Not being disparaging - I enjoyed this.

Jun 19th, 2021The 2nd of 2 Tasmanian Pinot Noirs. Dense Ruby in colour - much darker than the Tolpuddle. Rich aromatics of smoky oak and black fruits - Cherry and Plum which carry through to the full bodied palate. Generous flavours. Finishes dry. Incredibly youthful for 8 years of age. One of the bigger bodied Pinots I’ve had for a while.

Christmas spices and cherry on the nose, very flavourful on the palate. Delicious! Tart and soft tannins. Drank it first at a dego at Stillwater, bought a half case. 2012
