The 2023 Moppity Atrius Pinot Noir is a refined cool-climate Pinot Noir sourced from the high-altitude vineyards of Tumbarumba in New South Wales. Crafted in a modern Australian style, the wine combines bright red fruit, savoury complexity and silky texture, reflecting the freshness and elegance that make Tumbarumba one of Australia’s leading Pinot Noir regions. A portion of whole bunch fermentation and maturation in French oak add depth and structure while preserving varietal purity.
On the palate, it is light to medium-bodied with fine tannins and vibrant acidity, delivering flavours of strawberry, red cherry and cranberry layered with subtle forest floor, spice and floral notes. The texture is supple and polished, with gentle oak influence supporting a long, savoury finish without overpowering the fruit.
Ben’s Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent Pinot Noir for customers who enjoy elegant cool-climate reds with bright fruit, silky texture and savoury detail. The Tumbarumba fruit gives the wine freshness and finesse while maintaining excellent depth and drinkability. Drinking beautifully now and best enjoyed over the next 3–5 years. Ideal with grilled salmon, roast duck, mushroom dishes or charcuterie.
