Bass Phillip Pinot Noir Premium 2016
Red
Gippsland, Australia
7.7
WineSaint
Dark berry compote and dried violets emerge with striking purity. The texture is all silk and precision. Taut acidity frames concentrated raspberry and rose petal flavors that build through the mid-palate. There's serious structure beneath the elegance, with fine-grained tannins and a mineral backbone that promises decades of evolution. The finish resonates with bitter cherry and warm spice. A masterclass in Gippsland terroir.
