"Notes of dark cherry, red plum and mulberry with hints of undergrowth, spice, light amaro herbs, roasting meats and earth. Bright acidity drives things along nicely, the medium-length finish flush with red and dark berry fruits and spice." - Dave Brookes
"The nose filled with black & red cherry, mulberry, spice & earth. The palate is defined and intense fruits, texture and weight throughout, tannins are very present yet fine and integrated, which carry the flavour right to the back of the palate." - Derwent Estate Wines
"Derwent Estate, planted on the historic Mt Nassau property just north of Hobart, has been in the same family since 1913. With three generations involved in the family business today, this genuine cool climate site on north-facing, Calcareous soil slopes has gained a reputation for consistent, outstanding quality fruit, most notably Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Riesling. They approach the vineyard with a gentle management philosophy; and a purpose-built winery completed in 2013 made with straw bales cleverly retains the ideal natural ground temperature for the production and maturation of the wines." - Fesq & Company
