Aroma

A beautifully aromatic Pinot Noir with a balance of fresh red fruit, floral finesse and savoury complexity, leading into a silky and elegant palate.

Palette

The Blacksmith Pinot Noir is the jewel in the Eastford Creek crown. It is the most reflective of our local terroir: our chocolatey soil leads to a complex and earthy Pinot with generous length and depth. There are plentiful autumnal notes of spice and cassis, hand in hand with dark cherry, figs and cedar.

Pairings

Pairs beautifully with duck, roast chicken, pork, mushroom dishes, salmon, charcuterie and soft cheeses. Its freshness and savoury character also complement earthy dishes with herbs and spice.

Wine Making

We mature this wine in our finest barrels, a combination of new and old French oak, including custom barrels coopered in Nuits-Saint-Georges in Burgundy. It is a blend of several component clones: 777, MV6 and D4V2, each lending their own unique flavours: boysenberry, spice, blackcurrant.
However, they are expertly brought together to create a wine that is greater than the sum of its parts. This is a defining Pinot Noir and one that showcases what the North West Coast is truly capable of.

Meet the owners

Eastford Creek came about almost by accident. Rob and Sue Nichols, better known for their poultry farming, planted their first vines on the North West Coast back in 2018 after a passing bottle of wine sparked an idea. The vineyard sits on a rocky outcrop overlooking the North West Coast, one of Tasmania's smallest and least-known wine subregions, and the family-run cellar door now welcomes visitors into restored 140-year-old agricultural sheds. Small in scale, but full of character.

West Coast

About the region

Wild wilderness, ancient rainforests, rugged mountains and windswept coasts, this is Tasmania's West Coast. It's the smallest and newest wine region on the island, home to just a handful of producers making cool climate wines of genuine character. Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Riesling and Pinot Gris are the varieties that thrive here, shaped by one of the most dramatic landscapes on earth.
