The 2021 Dawson James Pinot Noir was awarded the TROPHY for Best Tasmanian Pinot Noir in the 2024 International WINE Challenge London and 95 points in the 2025 Halliday Wine Companion.'

Deeply hued. This is a Pinot with a lot of character - dark, rich plum, violet, blood, earth, beetroot - all the best funky/umami pinot aspects.

Intensely flavoured dark fruit floods the palate and lingers deliciously. Texture is all, and the flowing sensation is sublime. This is THE Pinot for lovers of that 'earthier' style, while retaining a core of pure Tasmanian fruit.
