Merriworth Estate Pinot Noir
Summary Merriworth Estate is a family-owned, boutique winery in Tasmania's Coal River Valley, focusing on cool-climate elegance with low-intervention techniques. The Pinot Noir is hand-harvested from carefully managed vineyards, fermented with native yeasts in open vats, and matured in French oak (a mix of new and seasoned) for finesse and subtle spice. It captures Tasmania's signature brightness, silky texture, and vibrant acidity—medium-bodied yet intense, with excellent balance and approachability. Versatile and food-friendly, pair with duck, salmon, mushrooms, poultry, charcuterie, or earthy dishes.
