Wine Making

The Chartley Estate Sparkling Rosé 2020 is made using the Methode Traditionelle, with the secondary fermentation occurring in the bottle.

The wine is crafted from 60% Pinot Noir and 40% Chardonnay, which lends the wine its bright fruit character and fine structure. After spending 3 years on lees, the wine develops additional layers of complexity and a creamy mouthfeel.

The cool-climate conditions of the Tamar River region allow for slow ripening, ensuring the vibrant acidity and fruit purity that define this elegant sparkling rosé.

Meet the owners

Chartley Estate carries a distinctly maritime story into its wines. Before turning to grapes, the family behind Chartley made their living diving for abalone, and that connection to the sea has followed them to their 12-hectare vineyard overlooking the Tamar River in the West Tamar region. Now under the guidance of respected winemaker Peter Dredge, Chartley produces cool climate Riesling, Pinot Gris, Pinot Noir and sparkling wine, with a Riesling that's picked up trophies at the Canberra International Riesling Challenge for Best Tasmanian, Best Australian and Best World Dry Riesling all at once.

Tamar Valley

About the region

The Tamar Valley is Tasmania's oldest wine region, stretching from Launceston to the Bass Strait in the state's north. Its cool maritime climate and iron-rich soils create ideal growing conditions, and the numbers speak for themselves, home to over 30 family-owned wineries, the Tamar Valley accounts for more than a third of Tasmania's total wine production. Viticulture here goes back a long way too, with the first commercial vineyard established in the mid-1800s at Windermere, its cuttings even helping establish some of South Australia's earliest vineyards. Today, the Tamar Valley is celebrated for its Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Riesling and sparkling wines, each one reflecting the region's exceptional terroir and winemaking heritage.
