Description

Up in northern Tassie, Strelley Farm turns out Pinots that are all about fragrance, freshness and easy charm. The 2023 is no exception – fruit from their own vines, picked nice and bright, and made with a gentle hand so it stays light on its feet.

It’s got juicy red berries, a sprinkle of spice and soft tannins that make it dangerously easy to keep topping up your glass. There’s enough structure if you want to pair it with food, but honestly, it’s just as happy being passed around at a long lunch or opened on a Tuesday night.

No fuss, no overthinking – just a fresh, lively Tassie Pinot that’s here for a good time.

90 points - "A bright and light, ginger-spiced rendition of pinot noir that shows fruit characters of raspberry, red cherry and cranberry along with hints of fine spice, charcuterie, a whiff of undergrowth and char siu. Sour cherry appears on the palate, fine, sandy tannins and plenty of pinosity for the price." - Dave Brookes (Halliday Wine Companion)

Colour
Light garnet.

Aroma
Perfumed aromas of ripe plum, raspberry and dark cherry supported by subtle oak spice.

Palate
Bright and juicy red fruit flavours upfront are underscored by a dense core of dark cherry and supple oak tannin.

Cellaring
Exceptional drinking over the next five to seven years.

Vintage
2023 saw a cool, wet spring but without the intense rainfall of the mainland. La Niña impacted significantly; cool and wet summer conditions delayed flowering and led to poor fruit-set, causing low yields. Quality was high with superb fruit concentration and pristine acidity.

Winemaking
A blend of 31% East Coast, 28% Coal River Valley, 20% Tamar Valley, 14% Tasman Peninsula, 4% Derwent Valley and 4% Huon Valley fruit. Small parcels were fermented separately in open top fermenters with twice daily cap management. Ten months maturation in new (20%) and seasoned French oak prior to blending and bottling.
