Description
Another stellar release from Peter Dredge, the 2019 Dr Edge Pinot Noir is really quite remarkable given the challenges of the vintage, particularly smoke taint from the bushfires.
It’s light and fresh but with more than enough length to satisfy.
Drink young and drink often.
“Tannin is light and fine-grained, just tugging away gently through the palate, a coolness of acidity, almost an alpine freshness here, with some dried leaf and mulch layering in some complexity.
Finish is more autumn leaf stuff, but pure of fruit underneath, ripe raspberries, and quite long.
Oak is not a feature of the wine.
It’s a very good thing to drink” 94 points Gary Walsh, The Wine Front The Finer Details Style – Red Wine Varietal – Pinot Noir Country – Australia Region – Hobart, TAS Vintage – 2019 Bottle Size – 750ml ABV – 12.5%
