2024 Sailor Seeks Horse Pinot Noir Huldufolk

Sailor Seeks Horse is a tiny vineyard that's one of Australia’s most southerly, located in the Huon valley in southern Tasmania. Owners Paul and Gilli Lipscombe have brought considerable vineyard and winemaking experience to this venture, and they've been producing outstanding Pinot Noir and Chardonnay here for over a decade.

The Huldufolk label is reserved for exceptional parcels of Chardonnay and/or Pinot Noir, and the name means ‘hidden people’ in Icelandic having has its origins in 19th century folklore. 2024 Huldufolk is from a single one-year old barrel of 115 clone Pinot Noir.
Limit 1 bottle per customer.

Other Reviews....
The 2024 Huldufólk Pinot Noir leads with a deep nose of rose oil and cherry pip, sandalwood, star anise, licorice, red apple skin and wet chalk. It is ethereal, as all of these wines are, silky and svelte, with layers of red fruit atop a bed of mineral tannins. This is a beautiful wine; it's intellectually and cerebrally stimulating but delicious and pleasurable as well—the perfect interval at which to appreciate wine. Go far out of your way to seek out this producer in the cool and picturesque Huon Valley. This wine is made exclusively with Clone 115. A minuscule 300 bottles were filled. 13.5% alcohol, sealed under screw cap. Drink 2026-2036.
