About this Wine

A single vineyard wine sourced from the Meadowbank vineyard in the Derwent Valley in southern Tasmania. I10V5 clone Chardonnay planted in 2000.

The growing season for the 2021 vintage was near perfect producing a moderate crop of Chardonnay with fully developed flavours and natural balance. Fruit was hand-picked on 30th March before the seasonal rainfall break.

The wine is bright with lifted lemon peel, spice and a background flinty aroma of natural fermentation on light grape juice solids. The palate is finely poised with juicy citrus flavours, stone fruits, and a mineral edge which is balanced by zesty natural acidity finishing with a gentle grip.

Tasmanian Wine

The Tasmanian wine region is a cool climate region, the most southerly of all wine regions in Australia. Due to the lower temperatures, the area grows primarily Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Sauvignon Blanc, with smaller plantings of Riesling, Pinot Gris and Cabernet Sauvignon.

“Having been to many wine tastings over the years, I can definitely say from a personal standpoint that Tasmanian Chardonnay and Pinot noir are always ones I look forward to trying if they are on the menu. They are almost always high calibre wines that can easily compete against what the rest of the world has to offer in these varietals.” Jason C. – World Wine.

While Tasmania makes great still wines, the exceptional Chardonnay and Pinot Noir also make for excellent sparkling wines.

More recent vintages since 2005 have been positively impacted by the effects of global warming. With slightly higher temperatures the grapes are ensured to ripen fully and produce more vibrant wine.

Critic reviews

Decanter – Steely and compact, varnished with lime and grapefruit zest which ripples over the cohesive structure. The bracing acidity keeps a brisk pace towards the oyster shell ending.
