2021 | Dr. Edge | Pinot Noir

Floral and spicy, quite pretty, also a bit meaty, with bright red fruit and almond. Light to medium-bodied, frisky and fresh, clear and precise, raspberry, cranberry flavour and crunch to acidity, fine but firm graphite tannin, and a tight and vibrant finish of excellent length.

Producer Information

Dr Edge is one of the most highly sought after Tasmanian brands getting around, with pinot noir specialist winemaker Peter Dredge at the helm. After a stint at Petaluma and Ashton Hills, he made the move to Tasmania where he was the senior winemaker at Bay of Fires, gaining invaluable local knowledge from industry stalwarts like Paul Lapsley, Tom Newton and Ed Carr. His eponymous brand Dr Edge is his own love project, his passion, where he gets to play around and experiment. Pete sources fruit from 3 single vineyard sites across Tasmania, ’North’ is from Tamar Valley, ‘East’ from the East Coast, and ’South’ from the Derwent Valley. He also makes a 4th pinot which is a blend of all three vineyards. Needs to say they are all extremely limited with only 50 dozen of the Single Vineyard pinots made, and 300 of the blend. Pete says it best though; “I’m not telling you one is better than the other but the soil type and or micro-climate is the biggest difference between the three wines, you’ve got gravel soils from Joe Holyman’s vineyard, volcanic from the east coast, and mostly sandy from Meadowbank in the Derwent Valley.” The three Pinots are made exactly the same way, same clone, minimal oak. I’m trying to make a wine that’s as close as I can get to expressing that site."
