The 2023 Ossa Pinot Noir is an elegant Australian red wine from Tasmania, produced by Ossa Wines. Reflecting Tasmania's cool-climate conditions, this Pinot Noir offers a refined balance of vibrant red fruit, delicate florals and savoury complexity. Its anticipated aromas reveal ripe cherry, wild strawberry and raspberry, complemented by notes of rose petals, forest floor, dried herbs and subtle baking spice.
On the palate, it is expected to be medium-bodied with silky tannins and refreshing acidity. Flavours of juicy red cherry, cranberry and ripe plum unfold alongside hints of earthy mushroom, gentle spice and delicate oak. Its expressive fruit character is balanced by savoury depth and a finely textured structure, creating an elegant Pinot Noir with freshness and finesse. The finish is long and graceful, leaving lingering impressions of red berries and subtle earthy notes.
