The 2024 growing season in Tasmania was near perfect, with just a few isolated frost events. The season featured good winter and spring rainfalls, followed by warm, clear days and cool nights that allowed the grapes to develop perfectly. The Pinot Gris fruit from this vintage was free from disease and had clean, ripe fruit, resulting in expressive varietal flavour profiles that shine through in the wine.
In the glass, the Eddystone Point Tasmania Pinot Gris 2024 has a pale straw colour with a green hue. The nose is lifted with spiced nashi pear and a subtle hint of rosewater, offering an aromatic experience. On the palate, the wine is lively, with melon and sweet Bosc pear flavours upfront, followed by a juicy mid-palate and a fresh, crunchy pear finish that leaves a refreshing aftertaste.
This wine pairs beautifully with a local Tasmanian cheese platter, particularly with quince paste and caramelized walnuts, making it an ideal choice for light meals or as an aperitif. The Eddystone Point Tasmania Pinot Gris 2024 has already earned 95 points from James Halliday, reinforcing its reputation for excellence in Tasmanian winemaking.
Produced by Bay of Fires Wines, the Eddystone Point range is a testament to the region’s exceptional winemaking potential, with a Trophy-winning winemaker recognized at the Tasmanian Wine Show. Whether enjoyed now or cellared for a few years, this cool climate Pinot Gris offers a perfect balance of fruit, freshness, and complexity, making it a standout wine from one of Australia’s premier cool-climate regions.
