2018 Tamar Ridge Devil's Corner Resolution Pinot Noir Tasmania Australia

Winery Notes

With cherry, red berry and spice, this Resolution wine has all the striking intensity and length of very cool grown pinot. A full bodied style of Pinot Noir showing blackberry, sour cherry and hints of cedar from the quality French oak.The wine displays a juicy fruit driven middle palate with a crisp savoury texture and fine grained tannins.

The fruit was cold soaked and plunged twice a day until ferment was started to gain lengthy tannins. The wild yeast ferment was completed with partial whole bunches to add texture and complexity. Hand plunged in open top fermenters up to 6 times a day at temperatures bordering 30ºC. Basket pressed and settled for 48 hours then transferred to French oak of which 19% was new. It was bottled with an alcohol of 13.8% a T.A. of 6.0g/l and a pH of 3.55.
