[SOLD-OUT] Bass Phillip Since 1979 Pinot Noir 2021

 

"A juicy, riper style of Pinot with loads of sweet personality made for immediate enjoyment and plenty of upfront appeal. A lovely, layered palate of black cherry and anise flavours with a lush and textural feel.

Our ‘Since 1979’ Pinot is a selection of barrels from our Leongatha vineyard which were judged for stylistic reasons to not make the standard for Estate Pinot blend. No new oak
is used, but all barrels are light toasted and extra tight grain oak. No fining of any sort, or filtration before bottling in July 2022. A natural deposit may become present over time in the bottle.

The story of Bass Phillip starts back in the early 1970’s when the first vineyard site, located 15 kilometres south of Leongatha, was selected to plant vines based on climatic and topographical observations which when combined with South Gippsland’s moderating influences of the mountains to the north and ocean to the south, produces the perfect conditions for long, slow ripening of grapes." - Bass Phillip
