Description
“Greg Melick has turned his attention to grapegrowing and winemaking, planting 2.9ha of riesling at his vineyard in the Coal River Valley. It is a perfect north- facing slope, and the Mosel- style Rieslings are sweeping all before them. His multi- clone 4.2ha pinot noir block is also striking gold”.
JAMES HALLIDAY
Pressing Matters was also awarded the ‘Most Successful Tasmanian Exhibitor’ at the recent Royal Hobart Wine Show with the current release Pinot Noir earning a Gold.
“With a light yellow-green hue, this lovely wine has spice, honey, vanilla nuances adding to its lemon-citrus bouquet. Juicy fruit and subtle sweetness are superbly balanced. It’s delicious now but will blossom given more time. It won two trophies including reserve champion wine of show, 2020 Tasmanian Wine Show.”
96/100 -Huon Hooke, The Real Review, 16 Jan 2020 “The pristine, fresh acidity is a given, and rather than merely sweetness from the 69g/l residual sugar, it has morphed this wine altogether, adding layers of flavour. Preserved ginger and oranges, lemon balm infused tea and cardamom rally together on the long finish. Beautiful balance.”
95 points – Gold – Jane Faulkner, Australian Wine Companion, 01 August 2018
