The Pinot Gris comes from a couple of vineyards in Rowella and Rosevears in the western Tamar Valley. Ricky picks his Gris in two waves. The first parcel comes in as soon as the fruit reaches ripeness, then soaks on skins for a spell to extract texture and flavour. This portion then ferments and matures on lees in seasoned barrels to build weight.
The later pick ferments and matures on lees in steel tank at cool temperatures, preserving bright fruit character and purity. After blending, the wines mature for a little longer on lees before bottling. It’s a Gris rich in texture and flavour, great for the dinner table.
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.
