The 2021 Barringwood Graziers Pinot Noir is a cool-climate Tasmanian Pinot Noir produced from selected vineyard parcels in north-west Tasmania, where extended growing conditions support slow ripening and detailed flavour development. This wine reflects a more structured and savoury expression of Pinot Noir, balancing bright fruit purity with earthy complexity and refined oak integration. The nose opens with aromas of dark cherry, wild strawberry and plum layered alongside subtle spice, dried herbs and forest-floor notes.
On the palate, it is light to medium-bodied with fine tannins and vibrant acidity that provide freshness and structure. Flavours of red cherry, cranberry and raspberry are supported by savoury undertones, soft spice and delicate oak-derived complexity. Careful maturation adds texture and depth without overwhelming the fruit, allowing the cool-climate character and natural elegance of the wine to remain central. The finish is dry, balanced and persistent with lingering red fruit and gentle earthy nuances.
Ben’s Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent Pinot Noir for customers who appreciate a more savoury and structured cool-climate style with fine detail and balance. The 2021 vintage is drinking well now while continuing to develop additional complexity over the next 4–6 years. Best served slightly below room temperature with roast duck, grilled salmon, mushroom risotto, charcuterie or herb-roasted poultry.
