Dalrymple Single Site Coal River Tasmania Pinot Noir

Savoury, earthy notes are subtle and lift after moments in the glass to reveal lively fruit characters of red cherry, blackcurrant and fresh-cut plums. The bouquet is further complexed by clove and Asian five spice. Vibrant, textured dark cherries give richness to the palate and finish. Complexity is added through savoury notes with hints of dried herbs framing the fruit, complemented by vibrant acidity and fine tannins.

Dalrymple Single Site Coal River Valley is the result of our tireless search for Tasmania's finest Pinot Noir. While low rainfall and drying winds are characteristics of the Coal River Valley, the sunshine provides the wines with a naturally deeper colour and fruit concentration with fine acidity.

Tasmania, Australia

Tasmania is Australia’s southernmost wine region. Its commercial vineyards date back to 1823, when Bartholomew Broughton planted the first vines. Incidentally, the very first vines in Victoria and South Australia also originated from Tasmania. The Tasmanian wine industry then lay dormant for nearly 100 years due to the gold rush, with commercial winemaking only resuming in the 1950s. After 70 years of development, Tasmania has become synonymous with premium wines, especially Pinot Noir. The island is divided into several sub‑regions—Tamar Valley, Pipers River, Derwent Valley, Coal River Valley, Huon Valley, and the East Coast. Among these, Coal River Valley is the most sought‑after: the winner of the 2024 Australian Pinot Noir Challenge hails from there, as does the highly coveted Tolpuddle Vineyard Pinot Noir. For a Pinot Noir enthusiast, this is a region not to be overlooked.
