Coombe Yarra Valley Tribute Lady Celia Pinot Noir 2021
Approximately 50% whole bunches and 3–4 days' pre-ferment cold soak. Matured in 1–3yo French puncheons and barriques for 7 months. A medium, very bright crimson. Fragrant, with lifted, freshly picked red cherries, raspberries, some floral notes and and a little cinnamon and nutmeg spice. Medium bodied, this is very composed and I really like the balance between the fruit, the use of whole bunches, oak and tannins, which are superfine and long. Lovely wine. Drink to: 2028; Price: $65.00; Date Tasted: Feb 2022; Alcohol: 12.5%; Rating: 96 Points & Special Value Star; Philip Rich; James Halliday Wine Companion

Bay of Fires Pinot Noir 2021
The Bay of Fires philosophy on Pinot Noir production is to preserve to bottle the essential characteristics of the vineyard and fruit and create the highest quality blend from sub regional Tasmania. Gentle handling of the fruit and the wine helps to achieve this, while restrained winemaking assists in developing the complexity of the final blend.

Sidewood Oberlin Pinot Noir 2020
Enticing aromas of ripe cherry, dried herb, game, clove and almond lead to a refined palate that's elegant and silky while offering outstanding concentration and drive. Wonderfully long and harmonious with a spicy undertone. Price: $40.00; At its best: 2023 to 2032; Rating: 95 Points; Sam Kim; Wine Orbit

Scotchmans Hill Pinot Noir 2021
Clones MV6, 114 and 115 (15% whole bunches); wild-yeast fermentation, matured in new and used French barriques for 12 months. The bright, clear colour sends a signal promptly picked up by the perfumed (roses, et al.) bouquet and elegant palate. Here the savoury notes from whole bunches provide the texture to underpin the red cherry and rhubarb fruits at its heart. Drink to: 2036; Price: $45.00; Date Tasted: August 2022; Alcohol: 13%; Rating: 96 Points & Special Value Star; James Halliday Wine Companion
