The 2022 Lowestoft Estate Pinot Noir is a premium Tasmanian Pinot Noir that reflects the cool-climate character and meticulous vineyard practices of the Lowestoft estate in the Coal River Valley. Sourced from low-yielding vines and crafted with a focus on elegance and site expression, it opens with aromas of red cherry, wild strawberry and raspberry, layered with notes of rose petal, spice, forest floor and subtle oak. The wine captures the purity and finesse that have established Tasmania as one of Australia's leading Pinot Noir regions.
On the palate, it is medium-bodied with silky tannins, vibrant natural acidity and a beautifully balanced structure. Flavours of red berries, cranberry and dark cherry are complemented by savoury undertones, gentle spice and finely integrated oak, creating depth without sacrificing freshness. The texture is smooth and refined, leading to a long, persistent finish marked by bright fruit, earthy complexity and impressive precision.
Ben's Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent Pinot Noir for those who appreciate elegant, cool-climate styles with both immediate appeal and aging potential. Drinking beautifully now, it will continue to develop additional complexity over the next 8–12 years. Pair with roast duck, grilled salmon, mushroom risotto, game bird dishes or soft-ripened cheeses for a classic Tasmanian Pinot Noir experience.
