“Beautifully balanced and elegant, it glides through its arc to a long tail that ends on florals, strawberry and tea. Excellent” 4 Stars | Wine Worth Writing About – Tapanappa ‘DEFINITUS’ 2022 Pinot Noir

Review Date: Sep 2025

⚖️ – Fairly priced for such a unique and well made Aussie Pinot

🕰️ – Drinks beautifully now, but its complexities emerged with 12hrs of airtime. No issues holding this for 5yrs +

Clear ruby with a gentle orange hue and a complex nose of dried rose, violets and wattle with salted plum, strawberry, blackberry, dried orange, roasted peach, swede, hints of root beer, Chinese five spice and pepper, oolong tea, turned ferrous earth and duck-like meatiness.
In the mouth it’s silky, pure and effortless with a core of fresh, but savoury leaning red and black fruits, sweet beetroot, dried black olive, black tea, orange and complex, anise-rich spices that drive with intensity and ghostly transparency. A veil of fine tannins hold throughout, while deep and gently saline ferrous notes draw you in and speak of the terroir that this unique Pinot was born in. Beautifully balanced and elegant, it glides through its arc to a long tail that ends on florals, strawberry and tea. Excellent. Reviewed August 2025.

4 Stars – A one of a kind gem
