Description
The Premium Pinot Noir sits right at the core of Bass Phillip – serious wine, but made without fuss. The 2021 vintage was the first crafted fully under Jean-Marie Fourrier and Adam Francis, who’ve kept the focus where it’s always been: careful farming, low yields and a light hand in the cellar.
It was a cool, drawn-out season in South Gippsland, perfect for building flavour slowly. The fruit was hand-picked, fermented wild in small open vats and aged in fine French oak. Nothing forced, just patient, detailed work.
In the glass it’s all red cherry, rose, spice and a bit of earthy grip. The texture is fine, the finish long and clean. It’s a little tighter and more focused than past vintages, showing the clarity and discipline that define this new era at Bass Phillip.

"My, my, what a wine with its depth and structure as much as its beauty and ethereal qualities."
