Bass Phillip
Since 1979 Pinot Noir
The first wholly made vintage from the Jacques Fourrier team after the purchase from Phillip Jones. ( NB. I said this about the 2020 vintage but I now believe it was this 2021). Another wine maker we visited recently in Gippsland gave these wines from the new regime a glowing endorsement so I decided to have a bottle of the entry level Cuvée from 2021 to check the difference. More ripe and voluptuous than the previous owner’s entry level - more “drink now “ than previous but I will keep the next 2 bottles for a few years. Notes of black cherry and liquorice. Quite delicious.

Jan 11th, 2024Delectable: This is the new entry level Cuvée from Bass Phillip called “Since 1979 Pinot” not offered in your choices. This is the first vintage with Burgundian winemaker, Jacques Fourrier in charge. The first thing I noticed was how fresh and bursting with red fruits this was. Like raspberry, strawberry and cranberry leaping from the glass. No detectable oak influence - all about the fruit. Very approachable immediately - soft silky and delicious. While the other 3 Pinot Cuvées have increased in price this entry level has reduced to under $50 allowing more wine lovers to be introduced to the best producer of Pinot Noir in Australia IMO. Probably clever marketing.
