Glaetzer-Dixon Family Winemakers Rêveur Tasmania Pinot Noir

Nick Glaetzer may have made headlines by winning the Jimmy Watson with Tasmanian shiraz, but pinot noir is where his real passion lies, and his flagship is the proof. An alluring fragrance of berry compote, violet perfume, sarsaparilla and mixed spice carries through a tangy and spice-laden palate of impressive red cherry and mixed berry fruit. Tannins are beautifully poised, finely structured and silky, yet firm and confident. A wine of youthful vitality, grace, seamlessness and considerable promise. $43 at Cracka.
