Pipers Brook Tasmania (Formerly Estate) Riesling 2024
$35.00Jeremy’s score 95/100A very fine, flavoursome and beautifully presented cool climate riesling whose musky, floral perfume of pear, white peach and green apple skin is lifted by a whiff of rose water. It’s generous, round and gentle, with a perfect length of translucently clear fruit artfully offset by an ultra-fine chalkiness and a mouthwatering acidity. Wonderfully ripe, with lingering nuances of mineral and spice.

Pipers Brook Tasmania Pinot Gris 2022
$29.00Jeremy’s score 92/100Musky scents of white Turkish delight, pear, apple and rose oil reveal a whiff of potpourri. It’s long and luscious, evenly paced and mouthfilling; delivering fresh, zesty varietal fruit down a bathpowdery spine before finishing with a lingering nuttiness and a refreshing acidity. Very stylish and expressive.

Pipers Brook Tasmania Pinot Noir 2021
$51.00Jeremy’s score 92/100A restrained, gentle pinot noir likely to build richness and texture with bottle-age. A very youthful, sweet and dusty bouquet of maraschino cherries, raspberries and rose petals reveals hints of citrus oil and tomato stalk. It’s long and presently quite linear, opening up more depth and weight as it breathes, revealing a faintly smoky presence of black and red forest fruits and cedar/vanila oak that extends down a fine, slatey backbone towards a lingering finish of red licorice. It’s a keeper, and I’d cellar it with confidence.

$51.00Jeremy’s score 93/100Heady, musky scents of rose petals, maraschino cherries and raspberries are deeply perfumed and floral. Medium in weight, it’s soft, luscious and mouthfilling, with a densely packed but vibrant expression of red berries and cherries that becomes darker down the palate. Supported by a powdery spine that’s likely to build in strength, it’s long and persistent, culminating in a refreshing acidity and lingering finish of musk and dark cherries.

Supported by fine, drying tannins, it’s soft and gentle, with plenty of flavour and a lively acidity to finish. Likely to build over the next year or so, and a wonderful red for an outside lunch.

Rochford Hill Road Syrah 2021
$42.00Jeremy’s score 92/100An elegant, medium-weight, sweetly fruited and textural Yarra shiraz with some powerful St Joseph-like qualities. It’s musky, meaty and spicy, with dark plum and dark berry aromas lifted by a whiff of cracked pepper. Backed by a fine, powdery spine, it’s long and savoury, fleshing out with more richness of fruit with extended time in the glass, finishing with suggestions of charcuterie meats and mineral. If you’re drinking it young, aerate it well.

There’s a fine chalkiness all down the palate and the wine comes together with shape and richness at the finish. If you’re chasing some real style and character in chardonnay but don’t want to pay through the nose…
