Capturing the essence of our unique amphitheatre site, the low yields of this vintage have delivered superb concentration and layers of glorious fragrance which unfurl with time in the glass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFreycinet Vineyard’s good name and reputation for Pinot Noir has developed over more than 40 years of producing fine Pinot Noir from our distinguished site. We are proud of the many accolades, awards and recognition Freycinet Pinot Noir has received over the decades. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt gives us immense joy to hear from customers about their magnified drinking pleasure experienced after opening special bottles of Freycinet Pinot Noir from their cellars. Our relatively warmer, drier amphitheatre site creates a more structured, robust style of Pinot Noir that lends itself very well to cellaring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2024 season on the east coast of Tasmania saw the return of warmer, drier conditions after three cooler, wetter, La Nina influenced seasons. The winter preceding the growing season set the scene with mild above average temperatures throughout and close to normal rainfall. Spring and summer continued this warmer than average temperature pattern and low rain fall. Budburst was early as a result and settled flowering conditions provided a return to long-term average yields with perfect, well-formed bunches. Given the extra warmth throughout the season all varieties ripened beautifully and up to three weeks earlier than normal. Fruit quality was exceptional with concentrated flavours and ripe, juicy acidity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFully ripened fruit is handpicked for this wine from our original 1979 plantings of  predominately own rooted G5V15 clone. 100% whole berry fermentation provides impressive fruit weight and elegant, supple tannins. Matured in French oak barriques (25% new) for 10 months on fine lees.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe hallmarks of power, concentration, complexity and length feature in this wine. Alluring aromas of spice and macerated cherries, ripe raspberries and plums combine with a subtle floral perfume of rosehip, truffle and undergrowth. The vibrant palate is silken and detailed, offering an abundance of exotic spice,  pomegranate and sour cherry flavours intermingled with subtle oak nuances, svelte mineral tannins and a satiny mouthfeel. Silky texture and gamey, intriguing forest floor characteristics will further develop with careful cellaring over 10 to 15 years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA magnificent wine reflecting the unique terroir of a very special site.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDRINK: Now to 2044\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Freycinet Vineyard","offers":[{"title":"1500ml","offer_id":52068186390839,"sku":"24 FPN MAG","price":200.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/5422\/4695\/files\/PinotNoir1000x1000_766e8862-1b0e-493d-89f3-6c80a8427798.png?v=1717047116","url":"https:\/\/freycinetvineyard.com.au\/products\/2024-freycinet-vineyard-pinot-noir-magnum-1500ml","provider":"Freycinet Vineyard","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
