The Wine:
Dr Edge Tasmania Pinot Noir is a blend of Derwent Valley (60%) & Tamar Valley (40%) fruit. Its the Dr's secret recipe across 13 different batches separated by clone, vineyard and varied wholebunch inclusion blended to the house style. Natural yeast (Pied de Cuve method) ferments the grapes which are pressed to old oak casks and concrete tanks to lay low for 9 months before bottling without the use of fining agents.
The Review:
Gary Walsh, The Wine Front - 94pts
"Cherry, raspberry, nice and aromatic, with a dried flower perfume, plus a little sap and spice, and an undercurrent of something a bit earthy or clay-like. It’s medium-bodied, again the violet and rose perfume amongst juicy cherry and blue fruit, toasted hazelnuts, a light dusty grain and grip to tannin, cranberry acidity, a little blood orange tang, with a bright finish of excellent length. Delightful wine. Lovely energy and sense of purity here."
