The 2024 Dalrymple Vineyards Coal River Valley Single Site Pinot Noir is a refined Tasmanian Pinot Noir presented in a 1500ml Magnum format. The nose is complex with spiced plum, ripe tamarillo and cranberry, layered with blue florals, dark spice and subtle savoury notes.
On the palate, it is medium-bodied with fresh plum fruit, bright natural acidity and smooth, finely structured tannins. Handpicked fruit was fermented with 20% whole bunches before spending 10 months in French oak barriques, including 30% new oak, adding spice and texture while maintaining freshness through a long, subtle finish.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a great choice for Pinot Noir drinkers who enjoy dark fruit, floral aromatics and savoury complexity with fine Tasmanian acidity, while the Magnum format supports slower development in bottle. Enjoy it now or cellar for 5+ years as further complexity develops. Ideal with roast duck, grilled lamb, mushroom ragù, roast chicken or five-spice roasted vegetables.
