Aroma

Delicate and pale in the glass, with fine red fruit aromatics, redcurrant and wild strawberry ,layered with subtle florals from the fine lees ageing.

Palette

Bone dry and elegant, with the Glen Shian fruit giving weight and roundness while the East Coast component adds a touch of textural grip. Fine, savoury, and food-friendly rather than fruit-driven or sweet.

Pairings

The dry, textured style suits charcuterie, grilled prawns, or a simple salmon dish, anything that wants a wine with a bit of structure behind it, not just easy sipping.

Wine Making

The Glen Shian site produces fruit with low acidity, so picked early its ideal for a dry, elegant style of rose, of which we love to make. That fruit is whole bunch pressed, treated like a sparkling base, this was split between tank and a seasoned 2000L foudre for wild ferment. Happily we see the colour fall out of the juice during ferment, this patch seems to have a lovely fruit weight/sweetness when completely dry.

The other component is from our farm, with healthy yields for the first time in ages, we allocated some of our abel clone pinot noir to this wine. This was also whole bunch pressed, but all went to tank, the clone has great acidity on our site, we picked it when the flavour was still in a savoury spectrum, with the intention of keeping the end product super fresh, crunchy, and true to style.

Meet the owners

Two Tonne Tasmania takes its name from its very first vintage, when winemaker Ricky Evans was given two tonnes of Pinot Noir fruit in exchange for a temporary winemaking gig back in 2013. After honing his craft under Ed Carr at Bay of Fires, Ricky launched his own label with a philosophy he still holds to today, small parcels, big love. Centred on his own Woodlawn Park vineyard in the Tamar Valley, with fruit also drawn from the East, South and North coasts, the range is all about capturing Tasmania's subregional diversity with precision and restraint.

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.
