94 / 100"I’d guess a blend of North and East this year. Spicy, cherry and raspberry, hazelnut and earthy things. It’s bright, with a sappy and spicy edge, cranberry acidity and fine emery tannin, dark cherry and walnut, with a little blood orange zest on a finish of dried raspberry and spice. A lot of energy here, kind of nervy, but really good."

Tasting Notes
Dr Edge Tasmania Pinot Noir is a blend of Derwent Valley 80% & Tamar Valley 20% fruit. All manner of whole cluster inclusion, hand stomp, foot stomp and bum stomp maceration occurs across each parcel before blending to the Dr's house style.
Natural yeast (Pied de Cuve method) ferments the grapes which are pressed to old oak casks to lay low for 9 months before bottling without the use of fining agents.
