Grapes grown at Mewstone vineyard were hand picked on the 9th and 19th of April at an average of 12.5 baume. They were naturally fermented with 25 percent whole bunch (this varied across the ferments, from zero to 55%). They received minimal pumpovers before being pressed after 21 days. They were matured in french oak (35% new) for ten months.

About the region

Tasmania

Tasmania is Australia's coolest wine state, and its growers trade warmth for length of season. Grapes ripen slowly and hold their acidity, which is why so much of the country's best sparkling wine is grown here, and why Tasmanian Pinot Noir is lighter-framed and more savoury than mainland examples. Riesling and Chardonnay do well for the same reason. The Tamar Valley, Pipers River and the Coal River Valley are the main pockets.
