Dalrymple estate in Tasmania is owned by Robert Hill-Smith of the Yalumba family. Robert, who also owns Jansz, saw huge potential in Tasmania a decade ago and purchased it to increase his plantings of premium Chardonnay and Pinot Noir there.
Pinot Noir 2013
Pale in the
glass, Burgundian nose with complex oaky spice; pure and long, with ripe
red fruits, freshness and an assertive muscular core. A very
adept wine that doesn't have to try too hard, it is Rudolph Nureyev in a glass.
Very Good.
Match with Burgundian foods - escargots, darker game, beef bourguignon.
£26.99 from Negociants UK - provided for review.
