The 2024 Stoney Rise Pinot Noir is a vibrant Tasmanian Pinot Noir from the Tamar Valley, a region renowned for producing elegant, cool-climate expressions of the variety. Aromas of red cherry, wild strawberry and raspberry are complemented by hints of rose petal, baking spice and subtle forest floor notes. Bright fruit character and regional freshness are at the forefront, creating a wine that is both expressive and approachable.
On the palate, it is medium-bodied with silky tannins, lively acidity and a finely textured mouthfeel. Flavours of red berries, cherry and cranberry are layered with gentle savoury notes and subtle spice, providing depth without sacrificing freshness. The wine is balanced and energetic, finishing long and smooth with lingering red fruit and delicate earthy complexity.
Ben's Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this is a fantastic Pinot Noir for those who enjoy bright fruit, freshness and classic cool-climate character. Drinking beautifully now, it will continue to show well over the next 4–6 years. Pair with roast duck, grilled salmon, mushroom risotto, charcuterie or herb-roasted chicken for a versatile and rewarding food match.
