 8 Ranges 'Tussock Ridge' Pinot Noir 2014

 

Deep black-hued ruby red in colour.  Black cherry, herb and liquorice aromas.  Full bodied, concentrated flavours - black berry-fruits and dark cherries entwined with spices, dark herbs and liquorice notes.  Deep smokey and oaky notes.  Fine-grained tannins, excellent length and a tight finish.  

A deep, rish, fine-textured Pino from an excellent vintage.  Cellar with confidence to 2019 and beyond.

8 Ranges 'Tussock Ridge' Pinot Rose 2017

 

Crafted from only premium Pinot Noir grapes, made in a refreshing off-dry style. The bouquet is bright with cherries and raspberry with hints of stonefruit. Its a fresh and bright style Rose with the palate showing bright berryfruit support by fine acidity and a great length of finish.

8 Ranges 'Tussock Ridge' Pinot Gris 2017

 

  This luscious, refreshing, off-dry wine is bright and clear with a pale golden hue. The bouquet had lifted aromas of melon and pear. The palate is layered with white peach and citrus flavours and finishes with a great length and richness of flavour.

8 Ranges Barrel Selection Pinot Noir 2013

Deep red/magenta colour with a smokey red-fruit bouquet that leaps out of the glass.  Full and rounded with a gorgeous texture and a great balance of savoury, herbal and berry fruit flavours.  Although still young for one of our premium wines, it already has intensity and length - a wine you can drink now but will develop well for the next 5-8 years with cellaring.

Only 10 barrels were selected from this outstanding vintage to make this limited edition wine.

 

 

Dark ruby red in colour.  Black cherry, herb and liquorice aromas.  Complex flavours - black berry-fruits and dark cherries entwined with dried herbs.  Deep smokey and oaky tones.  Very fine-grained tannins with a tight finish and excellent length.  Cellar with confidence to 2018 and beyond.

 

 

This is a superb wine which is just starting to show its true potential.  Burgandian in style.
