Overview
The 2014 vintage saw a return to healthy yields on the grapevines and warm, dry conditions through the ripening period. With low disease risk the fruit was in pristine condition and flavour ripeness developed steadily. The fruit was brought in over a busy two week spell and the grapes were fermented in open pots with plunging to gently extract tannins.

Winery Tasting Notes
Colour
Medium brick red in colour.
Aroma
This Pinot Noir has powerful aromas of dark cherry complimented by charred oak and hints of vanilla.
Palate
The palate has lively sour cherry and strawberry flavours nicely balanced by savoury oak and persistent fine grained tannin. An elegant and delicate Pinot Noir but with a myriad of flavours and great length that will allow careful cellaring.

Winery Profile
Spring Vale is situated at Cranbrook, north of Swansea on Tasmania's Freycinet Coast. The Freycinet Coast could otherwise be described as the mid East Coast, and Spring Vale is about in the middle of that.Continuing in the tradition of hard work and innovation established by William Lyne in 1826, Rodney and Lyn Lyne have planted 6.6 hectares of wine grapes at Spring Vale, principally Pinot Noir. The vineyard began in 1986, when a small area of two acres was planted to Pinot Noir. Further plantings were made in the following years: firstly, more Pinot Noir, then Chardonnay and Gewürztraminer, followed by Pinot Gris in 1996. In 2000, more Pinot Noir and a splash of Pinot Meunier was planted.In June 2007, Spring Vale purchased a neighbouring farm, "Melrose". The purpose of this purchase was to enable decent amounts of a lighter red to be produced, with the first "Melrose" Pinot Noir being the 2008 Vintage.
