2022 Bass Phillip Premium Pinot Noir Magnum 1500ml

97 Points - Jane Faulkner, Wine Companion

“All up, this spends 14 months in French oak (36% new) and the outcome is an impressive wine. No wallflower as it's rich, ripe, full-bodied and laden with aromas and flavours of dark cherries, florals, joss sticks, chinotto, baking spices and garrigue. Raw silk tannins flood the palate, so too the sweet fruit; concentrated and powerful, yet there's a succulence and vitality within. A lot to consider, including cellaring for a few years before drinking. And yet, for hedonists, there's an innate beauty making this irresistible now.”

97 Points - Huon Hooke, The Real Review

“Very deep and bright red-purple hues, the bouquet deep and latent with dark cherry/blackberry and violet nuances, while the fruit is very intense on the palate, deep and concentrated with sumptuous ripe flavours of dark fruits backed by masses of fine-grained, drying tannins that refresh the finish and help extend the very long aftertaste. Impressive concentration and power: very ripe but also vibrant. It will richly reward cellaring. This has some wow factor.”

97 Points - James Suckling, JamesSuckling.com

“Pure and sophisticated aromas of dark cherries, raspberries, cassia bark and wet earth. The palate is medium-bodied with finely integrated tannins and bright acidity, giving notes of blackberries, tobacco leaves and graphite. Very tightly wound and focused. Opens up in the glass and shows its purity. Excellent. Drink or hold.”
