Smoky, heady and floral, with deep aromas of dark cherries blood plums and redcurrants, this richly flavoured, fleshy and generous pinot delivers plushness and roundness, length and drive over a fine, drying and slatey spine. It's bordering opulent, with a rich, sumptuous core of fruit and excellent length.

Winery

Shane Holloway and Fran Austin are a young couple who have turned up in Northern Tasmania from the Adelaide Hills and Kalgoorlie (WA) respectively. Their combined experience and the track record they have already assembled at Delamere suggests that this will be a label worth watching, potential already realised from the 2012 vintage onwards. While the non-vintage sparkling wines are well worthy of attention, I have a very soft spot for the very stylish and savoury vintage Blanc de Blanc, even if the 2012 edition was perhaps a little heavily worked for its depth of fruit and forward nature.
