Sourced from the outstanding Cooinda Vale vineyard in Campania, Coal River Valley; 10% whole bunch, 10 months' maturation in French oak, 30% new. Bright ruby with aromas of dark cherry, wild strawberry and red plum cut with hints of brown spice, amaro herbs, rocky facets, undergrowth, roast game meats, vanillin oak and earth. Dark, richer fruits this year, methinks, with dark cherry and plum tones. Some fine, toothsome tannins provide support and there's a dark-fruited textural flow on the extended finish.

Dark cherry, violet, baking spice, an earthy very ‘mineral’ thing is apparent to smell, and to taste, and in particular the graphite tannin is something of a highlight. It’s dark and spicy, firm and well-structured, but also sports quite some perfume and a sort of dark raspberry and orange succulence. The finish is stony and long. Here’s a beautiful expression of Pinot Noir.

This Pinot Noir offers an inviting bouquet of red cherries, raspberries, and earthy spice, with subtle oak notes. The palate is elegant and structured, with a silky texture and flavours of red fruit. Fine-grained tannins and balanced acidity (6.2g/L) lead to a long, graceful finish.

Pooley

Pooley is one of the leading family-owned wineries in Tasmania, renowned for their exquisite Single Vineyard examples of Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Riesling from the Coal River region, less than an hour north of Hobart.

The family vineyard was planted in 1985 by Margaret and Denis Pooley. Today it is in the hands of the third generation of Pooleys, with award-winning winemaker Anna Pooley heading up the cellar and her brother Matt as viticulturalist. They make a killer team and the family business is going from strength to strength.

Anna's wines are pure, refined and eminently cellar-worthy. A class-act producer setting a cracking pace for all of Tasmania to follow.
