Tasting Notes:

Ninth Island Pinot Noir showcases our cool climate vineyard sites in the North of Tasmania. Expressive aromas of raspberries, boysenberry with red cherries and hints of earthy spice. Flavours of cherry and mixed berries with hints of mulberry and lasting concentration. Abundant berry fruit and fine supple structure, perfectly suited for early enjoyment.

Technical:

Harvested during the cool early morning temperatures, the grapes were destemmed and crushed without delay. The crushed fruit was allowed to soak at cool temperatures for 2-3 days, then inoculated and fermented at between 25-30°C in stainless vessels. The wine was gently pressed off skins prior to full malolactic fermentation. Bottled early under screw cap to preserve intensely perfumed aromas and rich, vibrant fruit with soft velvety tannins.


Produced from grapes grown at Pipers Brook and at Strathlynn on the west bank of the Tamar River, 70km away. Northeast sites are close to Bass Strait and are subject to strong maritime influences. The Tamar Valley’s hillside slopes offer vines some protection from prevailing westerly winds, promoting warm, settled conditions for much of the growing season. The West Tamar also has surprisingly low rainfall. Sites around Pipers Brook feature Ferrosol (volcanic) soils, while those in the Tamar Valley are Vertosol (black cracking clay) soils. Both soil types have excellent water holding capacity, offering a steady supply of moisture and nourishment to the vines throughout the growing season. Pioneering clonal selection gives consistency of up front fruit and palate balance from old vine material. These 30 Year old vines give low yields with increase concentration and flavour. Predominantly Vertical Shoot Positioned (VSP) trellises, which expose bunches to the sun, thus achieving full maturity with well-balanced flavours and fine, ripe tannins.

Accolades & Awards:

Huon Hooke The Real Review

"Ninth Island is the entry-level of Pipers Brook Vineyard. This level of quality at this price tells us a lot about how outstanding the 2021 vintage was in Tasmania.

Deep-ish red colour with purple tints, the bouquet meaty and smoky notes overlying cherries, the palate tense and lean, with appealing bite and tang. It’s more than simple primary fruit. It finishes a little hard, but it’s a very decent pinot at a great price. (Screwcap)"
