The 2023 La Maison Pinot Noir is the latest triumph in this journey, following in the footsteps of the 2019, 2020, and 2021 vintages, which swept up pretty much every award going at our nation's wine shows. This was followed by the 2022 bottling clinching the prestigious Jimmy Watson Memorial Trophy in 2023.
"The 2023 La Maison Pinot Noir offers a complex nose of raspberry, pomegranate, and cherry blossom, with a palate of densely structured red fruits. Subtle notes of … more

"Single-vineyard pinot noir from the Lower Derwent Valley. Vibrant ruby with aromas of exotically-spiced red cherry, raspberry and red plum fruits. Hints of dried mountain herbs, citrus blossom, char siu, sandalwood, dried cranberry, amaro, undergrowth and Peking duck. Lithe and sapid on the palate with a touch of sour cherry, pillowy tannins and a spicy, complex finish that flows on for a pleasing amount of time." - Halliday Wine … more

"It's easy to see how the judges at the Australian Pinot Noir challenge fell in love with the inaugural release of Ossa's 2020 vintage and awarded it the trophy for 'Top Pinot Noir' of the year in 2021. The eagerly anticipated 2022 vintage release has just arrived and is everything you want Tasmanian Pinot Noir to be. It shows amazing depth of colour and richness in the glass yet offers beguilingly pretty notes of raspberry coulis, dried red flowers and … more
Pirie Non Vintage Northern Tasmania is widely recognised for the quality of sparkling wine produced in the true cool climate of 41-42°S. The first Pirie Sparkling (1995 Vintage) did much to establish this reputation. Today the story continues with Pirie Non Vintage, a full flavoured Cuvee from Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, boasting complexity from base wines produced in the unique sparkling terroirs of the region.
Producer notes "The nose is dominated by lime curd, crunchy stone fruits, cumquat, fennel fronds, lemon grass with hints of, cumin, coriander and roasted almond. The palate is an explosion of pink lady apple, nectarine, white peach, rounded out with notes of honey, freshly torched creme brulee finishing with kaffir lime, candied citrus peel, toasted almond driven by steely acidity.

'Another wonderful release from the Butchers Hill Vineyard at Richmond in the Coal River Valley. It sports pristine lime, green apple and lemon fruits, with a little more concentration this year, along with hints of crushed stone, wildflowers, clotted cream, soft spice, lemon curd and a whiff of clover blossom and lemon zest. I like the restraint and tension here. Minerally acidity brings everything into check, and there is serious length of flavour with this release, sailing lone, pure and … more

Bright, young, fresh and uncomplicated. The Spring Vale "Melrose" Pinot Noir is made for those who like to taste the fruit of the vines, not overly extracted, not too oaky, just beautiful fruit fermented into wine then put into bottle! Not too simple though with a mix of 8 different Pinot Noir clones plus some mushroomy Pinot Meunier the aroma is a mixed bag of game and earthy notes with uplifted, luscious strawberry and raspberry fruits. On the palate the … more

This wine teeters on the brink between 'dry' and 'off dry', but simply put it's just superbly balanced in terms of acid and fruit/RS.
All the grapes are sourced from a single vineyard in the Tea Tree subregion of Coal River,
planted in 2004 at a vineyard density 5000 vines per hectare. Soil type as described by Samantha is predominantly dark clay on Jurassic dolerite.
Hand picked, destemmed and left on skins for 8 hours before being pressed off to … more
The Blanc de Blanc spent 7 years on lees, promoting complexity and texture before being riddled, disgorged, and packaged onsite at our Granton estate winery. Made in a brut style, the dosage is low with approximately 5 grams per litre. Before release the wine spends over a year on cork, something that we know is vital for the wine to come together after disgorgement in September 2023.

"Steve Lubiana has almost 30 years of sparkling wine experience behind him and his current range of bubblies is the best I've tasted. This stunningly bright, pure, crystalline non-vintage fizz, with subtle hints of leatherwood honey, is a blend of 70 per cent chardonnay and 30 percent pinot noir, and spent two years on lees."

"West Tamar fruit, hand-picked, 20% whole bunch, cold soak before wild ferment, basket pressed before dryness into mainly old French oak barrels, unfined, unfiltered, screwcap. Medium burgundy red. Ripe cherry, plum and strawberry fruit with some warmer spice and underwood characters. Subtle oak influence." - Winemaker's note
Relatively soft attack, medium plus acidity, a few young tannins which will soften quickly. Medium to fuller bodied with a long finish. … more
