2022 Hughes + Hughes Pinot Noir, Southern Tasmania

Juicy and concentrated with generous blue fruits adding to crunchy red foundations with subtle reductive edges. Rich tannins support full flavours and ripe acidity.

These wines seek to champion varietal expression. We seek to add texture and complexity but not at the expense of enjoyment and purity. The winemaking can be a little experimental and playful. We hope these wines are enjoyed over and over again from day one.

Fruit from vineyards in the Coal River, Derwent and Tamar Valleys, the North West and the d’Entrecasteaux Channel. Predominantly whole berry, 12% whole bunch including a carbonic component, natural yeast, held on skins for 16-21 days. Pressed directly to and matured in oak (5% new). Bottled unfined and unfiltered.
