$198.00 GST Included

AUSTRALIA WIDE SHIPPING INCLUDED

Beginning just south of Launceston, the Tamar Valley winds 50km north to its meeting point with ass Strait. An amalgamation of three different sites, the intention of TMV Riesling is to reflect the various aspects and mesoclimates that influence the variety in the Tamar Valley.

The Three Wishes vineyard in Hillwood, a site Ricky has worked with for many years, is warm and located just a few hundred metres from the river, a half-hour’s drive north of Launceston. Two other sites in Relbia―Chartley Estate and Glen Shian― contribute zesty acid profiles to complement Three Wishes’ lush fruit and lifted aromatics.

From five- to 25-year-old vines on various soil types (silty loam, rocky ironstone and black clay), the TMV fruit fermented mostly in tank (95%) at cool temperatures with a small portion in barrel. The wine spent four months on lees in tank before being bottled.

“Very pale lemon colour, touch of lime at the core. Lime curd tart and jasmine on the nose. Sits towards the off-dry spectrum with bright lime fruit and pastry notes at the core.

It is well framed by nervy acidity and as it flows a seaside note builds into a finish that offers a drying fuzz of grip to balance the sweetness well.” 93 points, Stuart Knox, The Real Review

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.

Fine Wine Cellars

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.
