Home Hill is one of the most celebrated and most highly awarded pinot noir producer's in Australia, hands down. Almost every year, one of their wines does something extraordinary. I won't roll out the mile long complete list of golds or the many trophies, but here's a snippet of trophies the winery collects each year. You will not find another pinot noir producer in Australia with this much success.
Best Pinot Australia - Winestate Magazine 2016
Champion Wine of the Show - Tasmanian Wine Show 2017
Jimmy Watson Trophy - Royal Melbourne Wine Show 2015
Best Pinot Noir of the Show - Cool Climate Wine Show 2015
Best Pinot Noir of Show - Australian & NZ Boutique Wine Show 2019
The winery doesn't usually sell to retailers, they simply most of their wine to high end restaurants with retail always playing second fiddle with access to stock. This is a pinot noir made by one of the very best producers in Australia and this year it's delivered the goods again. We have super limited stocks.
Excellent value for money at this price, but I wouldn’t pay full fare for it.
As climate change takes it's inevitable toll, the sites which once were marginal, are now producing some of their finest wines. Burgundy is nervous, Bordeaux a little less so. Pinot Noir in Tasmania is benefiting from this. All along the East Coast, the Coal River Valley, are all producing superb wines.
