2023 Home Hill Estate Landslide Pinot Noir

Home Hill is one of your classic Australian vineyard retreats that functions as both a serious winery and a charming getaway with restaurant included. The focus here is primarily on Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Sylvaner and Sparkling wine, but their track record really shines with Pinot. Over recent years they have clearly established themselves as one of Tasmania’s best and most consistent producers of the varietal, culminating in their 2014 Home Hill Reserve Pinot Noir taking out the Jimmy Watson Trophy.

Deliciously fruited, supple and expansive - In a word ‘Moreish’

The Landslide Pinot Noir is sourced from newer plantings and is fermented and raised in mostly old French barriques for 9 months. Deep dark red core with black toned edges and a vibrant red hue. Perfumed violet like top notes stream out of the glass trailed by some red cherry, strawberry and red liquorice scents. Infusions of fresh herbs, flashes of rhubarb, forest floor and spicy cedar ensue. Delicious red to dark cherry, strawberry and red liquorice fruits power across the palate and deliver an expansive feel. Notions of forest floor, fresh herbs and delicate spicy cedar lie underneath. Delightfully fresh and supple in its feel it has very polished tannins, the conclusion long and moreish.
Drink over the next 5-6 years.
