Mattinson's independent review of Small Wonder Auburn Pinot Noir 2023.

Small Wonder Auburn Pinot Noir 2023
$52, 13.5% alcohol, screwcap, Tasmania.

I loved the Small Wonder Auburn Chardonnay 2023 a great deal and I’m a fan of this 2023 Pinot Noir as well. It’s both complex and delicious, a great duo, and it boasts both sinewy tannin structure and good persistence too. From all angles it’s a quality wine. It tastes of sweet-sour cherries, undergrowth, mint and roasted nuts, and has a gentle balsamic character layered over the finish. A lovely drink, is what it is. 92 points.
