Today, I’ll be reviewing “Victorian Pinot” by Australia Vape Co.
(This eliquid was supplied by the vendor for review.)
Flavour Description
If you love a quality Victorian Pinot Noir, you will be charmed this specially blended Pinot Noir e-juice that delivers a rich medium bodied aroma of cedar and ripe yellow peaches that make it a perfect all day vape e-liquid.
The Review
I’ve been itching to try this flavour all week, it’s been one of those that not only interest me, but a flavour profile that I know that I’ll love!
Good thing for me, that Australia Vape Co know what they are doing, because this one is an awesome tasty chilled flavour to add to your summer collection. With backnotes of sweet peach, this white grape flavour packs a punch with it’s bright, sharp flavour and chilled exhale. An all day vape, that you’ll find yourself filling up with until the very last drop!
Individual Notes
The main flavour here is obviously grape, it’s a white grape, very sweet and quite strong. It’s definitely realistic, a little like biting into a real green grape, less of a watery flavour, more impact.
The other main flavour here is peach. If you don’t pay attention you may just miss it, but that’s ok, as it’s one of those notes that doesn’t quite grab you, it’s a supporting note, and designed to add to the complexity, rather than take on it’s own flavour. Sweet, with a down to earth fullness, peach is a fantastic fruit to blend with grape, due to it’s sweetness, and body.
Inhale & Exhale
On the inhale you’ll be hit with sharp white grape tones as well as an underlying layer of peach. The grape is quite strong, and very concentrated, which is great, and the peach is light weight, more of a background note, simply providing a little extra body at this point.
As you inhale, everything intensifies, really intensifies. The strength of this flavour can’t be underestimated, its a concentrated strength that will hit you hard at first, but get used to the more you vape it. Very sweet a little limey, and a strong grape with a chill is probably the best you could describe it.
Once you hit that height of the inhale, the chill sets in with the cooling agent, providing a very cold mouth feel. It works really well with this profile and is a welcome addition. Not cold as ice, but very close to it!
On the exhale, you’ll notice while the grape is still quite strong, you’ll be able to notice the peach a little more, that unique sweet fleshy peach just seeps through into the grape, providing a little bit of a syrupy feel and extra depth. The chill is still here from the inhale, due to the cooling agent, and with the grape and the peach, really drives home that this is a fresh fruit vape designed for the summer months.
The end of the exhale is very much a strong grape/peach, and cooling agent, blend for the senses. No warm notes here, just sweet sweet fruit and a chill!
Final thoughts
I’m not so sure that this takes on much of a pinot noir feel, but the grape is definitely there, as is the underlying peach. If I were to best describe it, it would be a complex white grape, with a cooling agent chill.
Not really a wine base, but a concentrated fruit flavour that packs a punch as well as being a really great down to earth all day vape flavour.
I’ve really enjoyed this one, and it’s carried me well over the Christmas hot spell, with it’s chilled cooling agent, and sweet fruits.
Definitely one of the best of the bunch that I’ve tried! Well done guys!

Presentation:
Simple yet professional. I don’t know what it is about these labels, they are really clean looking, while being very minimalistic, and simple. The pastel colour coded label relates to the flavour inside, and there is mostly the standard amount of information provided on them. Company name, and juice name front and centre, with bottle size, PG/VG ratio, a little bit of info about the juice range, nicotine strength (which is zero), ingredients, warnings, manufactured by statement, and I’m not sure how accurate this is because it’s on the bottle itself between the seams of the label, a used by date. There is also a clear embossed sticker on the front, that I assume is to show that it’s the real deal.
The bottles are 60ml dark tinted Chubby Gorilla ‘type’ bottles with needle tips and screw cap lid that has a fresh seal, and child-proofing built in.
