Tamar Ridge's NOIR dinner series

Tasmania’s pinot noir specialists Tamar Ridge have have taken its annual NOIR dining experience to the mainland with five intimate wine nights in five capital cities, showcasing the very best of Tasmanian pinot noir winemaking.

NOIR gives pinot noir fans the chance to learn the art and science behind how Tamar Ridge make their range of award-winning, cool climate wines in a ‘mini masterclass’ setting.

Over a four-course matched menu, Tamar Ridge Senior Winemaker Tom Wallace guides diners through several current and back pinot noir vintages; each one an elevation in taste, complexity and winemaking technique.

At each event, guests will taste a number of clones – unique to Tamar Ridge’s Tasmanian terroir – that display different attributes (think tannin, structure and complexity) and clonal traits (bunch and berry size, yield size and skin type).

NOIR kicked off in Melbourne at The George on Collins (12 October) before hitting the road at venues around the country in Adelaide (Apoteca, 2 November); Perth (Matilda Bay Restaurant, 22 November); Brisbane (Otto Sopra, 8 February); and Sydney (Bibo, 22 February).
