The 2024 Ninth Island Pinot Noir is a vibrant cool-climate red from Tasmania, showcasing freshness, purity and classic varietal charm. The nose is lifted and aromatic, offering red cherry, raspberry and boysenberry, layered with hints of earthy spice, dried herbs and a subtle savoury edge.
On the palate, it is light to medium-bodied with a silky, supple texture and fine-grained tannins. Juicy red berry flavours are supported by bright acidity and a gentle mineral note, leading to a smooth, fresh and savoury finish. The style is elegant, approachable and food-friendly, highlighting balance and drinkability.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a great everyday Pinot Noir for customers seeking a lighter, fresher red with cool-climate character. Perfect for casual drinking or versatile food pairing. Best enjoyed now or over the next 3–5 years. Ideal with duck, salmon, mushroom dishes or charcuterie.
