93 / 100"No one loses with this in the glass. What an engaging and super tasty Pinot Noir we have here from Dalrymple. A blend of fruit from Pipers River, Coal River and Ouse, this is a wonderfully varietal wine. Red cherries, blackberry leaf and a lick of plum fold into autumnal things - tilled earth, undergrowth, dried leaves and twigs. Fine spices are pinned to the edges with a flash of blood orange late. It's a great wine to kick back with as the afternoon shadows get longer. Drink to five years."

"Good depth of red-purple colour; sweet ripe black-cherry aromas, a subtle herbal/bunchy note, the palate intense and firm with a pleasant hint of grip in the tannins, and a harmonious finish. Wild berries galore: this is quite delicious, aromatic and detailed lighter bodied pinot noir."
- Huon Hooke
Tasting Notes
Grapes for this 2022 Dalrymple Pipers River Pinot Noir were sourced from within Dalrymple's own vineyards in Pipers River as well as from a selected growers from the Coal Valley; all of whom having a proven track records of attention to detail in the vineyard.
The 2022 Dalrymple Pinot Noir showcases a deep garnet color with purple hues. Aromas of blackberry, dark cherry, and ripe plum take center stage, complemented by nuanced spices and dried herbs that evolve into complexity with extended aeration. The palate offers juicy plum and dark fruits, a result of a low-yielding, lengthy growing season. Bold yet rounded tannins harmonize with fine natural acidity, leading to a long finish highlighted by blue fruits and hints of five spice.
