Product Description:
From Tasmania’s rugged east coast, the 2022 Apsley Gorge Pinot Noir in magnum captures both site and season with striking clarity. Sourced from vines tucked near the entrance to Apsley Gorge National Park, this vineyard benefits from cooling afternoon breezes that temper ripening and extend the growing season. The cooler, wetter conditions of 2022 brought restraint and freshness, while still allowing depth and character to develop in the fruit.

On release, the wine shows the signature Apsley Pinot perfume alongside charcuterie, earth and spice, layered with intrigue and detail. The palate delivers rich, ripe fruit with a textural tannin frame, balanced by natural acidity that keeps the wine taut and focused. In magnum, the expression takes on greater poise and longevity, offering an evolving drinking experience that rewards patience. It is a Pinot Noir that reflects nearly four decades of Brian Franklin’s Burgundian-influenced craft, complex, savoury, and built to age gracefully.
