Pooley Wines 2021 Release + Free Tasting!

Published by The Wine Emporium on 11th Aug 2022

The great people at Pooley remain some of our very favourite winemakers coming out of Tasmania - their Chardonnay, Riesling, and Pinot Noir releases continually impress us with their depth of quality while maintaining a refreshing easy-drinking style. On top of it all, they have recently been honoured with James Halliday's Winery of the Year at the 2023 Wine Companion Awards!

To celebrate these new 2021 bottlings, we're very happy to have them on tasting at our usual time this Saturday (13th) from 11am to 1pm - come see why these drops have become favourites among many of our customers!


2021 Pooley Pinot Noir - $43 per bottle; $49 RRP

"Scintillating notes of redcurrant, cherries and raspberry compote on the nose with an underlying layer of mineral, cacao and dried rose petal. On the palate, it's pristine and persistent with bright red fruits, cedar, subtle game, and a dusting of black pepper. It's intricately balanced with finely boned tannin and brilliant acidity. Drink now through to 2032" – Winemaker


2021 Pooley Butcher's Hill Riesling - $57 per bottle; $65 RRP

"A weighted, resplendent riesling with aromas of citrus blossom, yuzu, desert lime, and mineral on the nose. Preserved lemon, grapefruit pith, under-ripened nashi pear follow on the palate. A slight note of talc, reminiscent of the Mosel-Saar, persists with a full mouth-feel and persistent acid profile." - Winemaker

"Pale and vibrant lemon-yellow tints the glass. Lemon blossom and karkalla aromatics. Serious concentration and intensity of fruit here, it's melded onto a taut saline-mineral acid line that drives it very long. A suppleness of fruit brings some middle-palate texture then tapers to a fine rapier finish." - 96 Points, Stuart Knox, The Real Review


2021 Pooley Butcher's Hill Chardonnay - $57 per bottle; $65 RRP

"Rich and weighted with unfurling notes of bruised golden apple, wet wool, grapefruit peel, and key-lime tart on the nose, with further developing notes of salted butter, flint and orchard fruits as the wine opens up in the glass. There's a lovely balance with superlative texture and knife-edge tension." – Winemaker


2021 Pooley Cooinda Vale Chardonnay - $57 per bottle; $65 RRP

"Purity and persistence with crystalline acidity and sensational length. Glimmering notes of toasted hazelnuts, nashi pear, lime sorbet, and sea spray on the nose with subtle smoke, chalk, green apple, and yellow stone fruits persisting on the palate. It’s ethereal and lean with a more than optimistic future ahead. It’s a certain prodigy in the making." – Winemaker


2021 Pooley Butcher's Hill Pinot Noir - $61 per bottle; $69 RRP

"A wine embodied with notes of brooding fruits, delicate spice, and underlying umami. There’s a savoury impression to the nose with aromas of foraged truffle, dense undergrowth, and tobacco leaf. The palate is splendorous and laden with dried herbs, allspice, dark cherry compote and dark plum. There’s an intrinsic vigour with finely etched tannin and generous weight on the finish." – Winemaker


2021 Pooley Cooinda Vale Pinot Noir - $61 per bottle; $69 RRP

"Abounding complexity and energy in the glass. An intricate display of autumnal aromas with oud perfume, port royal tobacco, orange rind and sour cherry. The palate is lifted with continuing notes of sour cherry, red currants and poached strawberry underscored by dried herbs, amaro and a wisp of smoked white pepper. Caressing tannin, delicate weight, and an elating length on the finish." – Winemaker
