Pinot Noir
High acidity. Lightweight. Fragrant, an abundance of cherries, raspberries, gamey, spice and with age comes lots of complexity - vegetal, savory and mushroom characters
Great value magnum from a hugely influential winemaker in TAS.
With 7300 vines per ha, Tout Pres is a densely planted vineyard on the estate—hence its name, which translates as “very cosy”.
You can smash it, or contemplate it, but either way it’s a fine glass of Pinot Noir. - February 2018, Gary Walsh, The Wine Front, 93 points

Incredible wines from another cult vineyard in N.Z. These wines NEED to age. 2015 is just about ready but will age gracefully for a long time, so no rush.
One on NZ finest producers of Pinot Noir
This wine will age in the 2030's. Iconic winery from Mornington Peninsula. 97 Points JH.
2015 was a 10 out of 10 vintage on the Mornington Peninsula.
the 5th vintage of perhaps the most famous winemaker ever to make wine on the Peninsula. From James Halliday's personal cellar.
It has a soft entry with mid palate fruit sweetness and lovely texture. The finish is long with balanced acid and fine tannins. It should age very well.
From a great producer in the best Pinot Noir region in Canada.
It will continue to develop beautifully for another decade and beyond. Exceptional vintage. 99 Points JH. Wine Club Members Allocation Only.
