A cool vintage for Tasmania with little summer to speak of and wind and rain extending the cool weather into February. The months leading into harvest were ideal with a long ripening season enabling harvest for Apsley to continue into May enabling perfectly ripe fruit with intense flavours and ideal balance resulting in a typical intensely rich Apsley style of Pinot Noir. Incorporating a small percentage of whole-bunch in the ferment (less than 15%) has resulted in a wine with a little more finesse and lift in this vintage. As always decanting is recommended.
