Riposte 'The Dagger' Pinot Noir has been a long-time favourite of ours as the personal project of the highly credentialed Tim Knappstein, who has now completed over 60 vintages.
The 2025 Riposte The Dagger Pinot Noir is another vibrant, flavoursome Adelaide Hills Pinot Noir brimming with dark cherry, berry fruit, exotic spice and soft, subtle tannin. Ready to be enjoyed now, you'd be hard pressed to find a better value Australian Pinot Noir on the market.
"There’s a bit more stuffing to this Pinot Noir than is customary for this variety, so it will suit those looking for a lighter red that isn’t too light. Stewed red cherry flavours edge into black cherry, peppercorn, spearmint and violets. It’s an easy wine to drink, and to like. 90 points."- Campbell Mattinson, campbellmattinson.com
