Tolpuddle Pinot Noir 2014
A fine cool climate pinot thatÕs likely to build with time. Its floral, heady perfume of sweet red cherries, raspberries and strawberries is underpinned by tight-grained and faintly toasty vanilla/cedar oak, revealing some faintly herbal whole bunch notes but remaining profoundly fruit-focused. Supple and smooth, itÕs long and gentle, with a vibrant sweetly-fruited presence of juicy berry and cherry flavour supported by fine, dusty tannins and wrapped in a lively acidity.

Tolpuddle
Tolpuddle was planted in 1988. It's a small vineyard in the Coal River Valley in Tasmania, a region with limitless possibilities. Planted to pinot noir and chardonnay, it was purchased in early 2011 by the team that owns Shaw & Smith in the Adelaide Hills. From my perspective, the wines have shown a steady development and improvement as the new owners have come to understand the site and its potential. While it has collected a number of significant awards, I firmly believe that Tolpuddle's best days lie ahead.
