Where are Pressing Matters wines made?

Located just outside of Hobart, the Coal River Valley is known for its cool climate, which is ideal for producing high-quality Riesling and Pinot Noir. The region benefits from long, sunny days and cool nights, allowing grapes to ripen slowly and develop intense flavours while maintaining fresh acidity. The soils in the Coal River Valley are predominantly sandy loam over clay, which provides excellent drainage and contributes to the mineral character often found in Pressing Matters wines. The winery itself is dedicated to sustainable viticulture practices, ensuring that the vineyards are managed with respect for the environment, which in turn helps to produce wines that are a true reflection of their terroir. Pressing Matters’ commitment to quality winemaking and the unique conditions of the Coal River Valley combine to create wines that are both distinctive and expressive.
