2020 Bass Phillip Premium Pinot Noir 750ml

The distinctive and highly esteemed Bass Phillip Premium Pinot Noir, matured in French Allier barriques for 18 months, stands as a quintessential representation of Victorian pinot noir. This uplifting and memorable wine, characterized by multiple layers and subtle nuances, embodies a dedicated passion. It originates from a four-hectare vineyard site in Leongatha, Victoria, where a meticulous adherence to laissez-faire principles, coupled with precise alignment to nature’s rhythms through biodynamic practices, results in the creation of this extraordinary pinot noir. Exhibiting aromas of black cherry, floral notes, and game, with a supple viscosity and underlying toasty oak, its true essence emerges best after approximately five years of bottle aging.
