This year’s Havilah’s 100% Pinot Noir rosé comprises fruit from two vineyards: Glen Shian in Relbia and Ricky’s Woodlawn Vineyard near Swan Bay in Tamar Valley.
The Glen Shian fruit was pressed as whole bunches to a mix of steel tank and one seasoned 2000-litre foudre for fermentation, while the Woodlawn fruit fermented in steel tank. Glen Shian tends to ripen early and give fruit with slightly less acidity than nearby sites.
These qualities allow Ricky to ferment to bone dryness and give a super light, elegant style of rosé. This year, Ricky had the luxury of adding some of his homegrown fruit to the mix, specifically a batch of Woodlawn’s Abel clone that lends a spine of acidity, some bright berry pop and a complexing savoury profile.
About Two Tonne Tasmania
Two Tonne Tasmania began in early 2013 when a young local winemaker, Ricky Evans, managed to nudge into the tightly held tamar valley, yep, with two tonnes of pinot noir.
Fast forward, Two Tonne Tasmania now farms from four diverse sites throughout the Tamar Valley and works with growers on the Freycinet coast and southern Tasmania, producing a range of wines that represent the unique sub regions of Tasmania.
On the one hand, our role as a merchant of all things wine & spirits could not be simpler. We aim to source the most delicious, the most authentic, and the highest quality products possible from Australia and around the world in order to offer them to our clients. We live or die by how well we perform this task. Of course things are rarely as simple or as easy as they seem. Hunting for wines & spirits is no different. Apart from the months spent travelling, countless days and evenings spent tasting and the outrageous wine expenditure in the name of ‘research’, sourcing quality wine and spirits requires expertise and experience. Understanding the potential of a producer and their products is much more than just a slurp and a spit.
