The 2024 Back Beach by Portsea Estate Pinot Noir is a generous cool-climate red from Victoria’s Mornington Peninsula. The nose shows pure red cherry, raspberry and strawberry fruit, complemented by subtle savoury herbs, gentle spice and a restrained touch of oak.
On the palate, it is medium-bodied with fresh acidity and fine, supple tannins, delivering juicy cherry and red berry flavours with savoury complexity and gentle oak influence. The fruit has good depth while retaining the freshness expected of Mornington Peninsula Pinot Noir, leading to a balanced and persistent finish.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a great choice for Pinot Noir drinkers who enjoy generous red fruit balanced by freshness and savoury detail. Enjoy it now or over the next 3–5 years as further complexity develops. Ideal with roast pork, duck, spaghetti bolognese, mushroom risotto, grilled salmon or roast chicken.
