Bass Phillip Estate Pinot Noir 2021
Tasting Notes
Bass Phillip Estate Pinot Noir 2021 captures the elegance and cool-climate character of Gippsland, Victoria. Founded in 1979, Bass Phillip has earned its reputation as an Australian Pinot Noir icon through Phillip Jones’ uncompromising pursuit of Burgundian-style quality.
Fragrant aromas of red cherry, raspberry and earthy spice introduce a refined palate of silky tannins, vibrant freshness and graceful length. Elegant yet rewarding, this premium Gippsland Pinot Noir expresses the region’s distinctive maritime influence alongside Bass Phillip’s pioneering, small-scale approach to quality-focused winemaking.
The 2021 vintage offers a beautifully poised expression of cool-climate Australian Pinot Noir, balancing delicate red-fruit character with savoury complexity and refreshing acidity. Sourced from a premium private cellar, it is an outstanding choice for enjoying now or adding to a carefully curated wine collection.
Serve with duck, roast chicken, salmon or earthy mushroom dishes. A sophisticated Australian red wine with the finesse, freshness and distinctive regional character that have made Bass Phillip one of Australia’s most recognised Pinot Noir producers.
