Kate Hill "Glen Point" Pinot Noir 2023
Summary Kate Hill "Glen Point" Pinot Noir 2023 is a single-vineyard expression from Kate Hill Wines in Tasmania's Huon Valley, Australia. Sourced from the Glen Point site (a cooler, sheltered block with well-drained soils), this Pinot Noir is hand-harvested, fermented with gentle extraction (often including some whole bunches), and matured in French oak for finesse and subtle spice. The 2023 vintage reflects Tasmania's cool, maritime climate with bright red fruit, floral lift, and elegant structure—vibrant, approachable, and reflective of the region's precision. Drink now (with light decanting) or cellar 5-8 years. Pairs beautifully with duck, salmon, mushrooms, charcuterie, or grilled poultry.
