2017 Domaine A Pinot Noir 750ml

Overview The 2017 Domaine A Pinot Noir is a finely sculpted expression of Tasmanian cool-climate winemaking, combining purity, structure, and understated power. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, this vintage reflects Domaine A’s reputation for producing wines of depth, longevity, and classical restraint. Vineyard and Winemaking Fruit is sourced from Domaine A’s low-yielding vineyards in northern Tasmania, where cool temperatures and long ripening periods preserve natural acidity and aromatic precision. Hand-harvested grapes were fermented with indigenous yeasts, with a measured proportion of whole bunches to enhance complexity and structure. Gentle extraction and maturation in fine French oak barriques over an extended period built texture and integration without masking varietal clarity. Tasting Notes Aromas of red cherry, cranberry, and wild strawberry are layered with rose petal, subtle spice, and forest floor. The palate is poised and finely textured, revealing pure red fruit, savoury undertones, and fine-grained tannins. Bright acidity provides drive and balance, leading to a long, elegant finish marked by mineral clarity and restraint. Style and Character This Pinot Noir captures Domaine A’s hallmark style — serious, precise, and age-worthy. It balances elegance with quiet intensity, offering a transparent expression of Tasmanian terroir and classical Pinot Noir structure. Cellaring and Pairing Drinking well now with decanting, yet capable of graceful evolution over 10–15 years. Ideal with roast duck, mushroom dishes, lamb loin, or refined game cuisine that complements its savoury depth and finesse.
