2022 Lowestoft Estate Pinot Noir

Lowestoft’s rise to the top tier of Tasmanian Pinot has been nothing short of meteoric and this excellent estate wine shows exactly why. Sourced predominantly from their mature 1986-planted Derwent Valley vineyard, this is an exercise in Tassie Pinot polish and precision.

Think dark cherries laced with black plum, exotic spice and anise, underpinned by pomegranate acidity and silken tannins. It’s supple and complex, but with a firm spine that promises 7-10 years of graceful ageing.

For a young label, Lowestoft is already playing in the big leagues. If you want to see just how serious modern Tassie Pinot can be, this is the bottle.

"I remember a winemaker friend telling me to keep an eye on these guys a while back. In recent years, Lowestoft has become one of the high flyers on the Tassie wine scene. I owe that man a beer."
