“EST is a special release sourced from the East Coast of Tasmania, with the intention of highlighting regionality within our island state.
Our EST (east) pinot noir is produced from a collection sites on the Freycinet Coast of Tasmania. Together, these sites typify what makes this sub region so exciting.
When picked on time, pinot noir from the Freycinet Coast displays a more structured style – bold and brave, savoury and soil driven. Also, typically more generous in style, with graphite-like tannin structure.”

“Fruit for this wine is sourced from a single vineyard on Tasmania’s central east coast: Blackwood Estate in Cranbrook. Given the right growing conditions, Pinot Noir from the Freycinet Coast displays a more structured style: bold, savoury and terroir-driven. The vines at Blackwood range from five to 30 years old and lie in a mix of granite and hard, rocky, volcanic soils. The fruit fermented with 100% whole berries for seven days before being pressed to seasoned oak to finish. The wine then matured in barrique (15% new) for 10 months.”
