The 2024 Two Tonne Tasmania TMV Chardonnay is a finely tuned cool-climate Chardonnay from Ricky Evans, showcasing the purity and precision that have made Tasmania one of Australia’s most exciting regions for Chardonnay. Sourced from select vineyard sites across the island and made with a thoughtful minimal-intervention approach, the wine balances freshness, texture and mineral drive beautifully. The nose opens with white peach, lemon zest and grapefruit layered with subtle flinty reduction, crushed oyster shell, cashew and delicate citrus blossom. There’s an elegant saline edge and lifted mineral freshness that gives the wine impressive detail and energy.
On the palate, it is medium-bodied with vibrant acidity, fine creamy texture and beautifully restrained fruit concentration. Bright citrus and stone fruit flavours are supported by subtle lees complexity, gentle oak spice and a taut mineral line that carries through the long, focused finish. Fresh and precise in style, the wine combines tension and texture effortlessly while remaining highly approachable.
Ben’s Recommendation:
The 2024 Two Tonne Tasmania TMV Chardonnay is an outstanding modern Tasmanian Chardonnay — mineral, refined and beautifully expressive with excellent balance and drive. Perfect with fresh seafood, grilled fish, roast chicken, creamy pasta dishes or soft cheeses. Enjoy now through 2034+.
