23.01.2022 Getting some sun

20.01.2022 Hi all, weve been out in the sun shine finishing off the pruning for the year. Still some more mulching to do in the top block but we are pretty much set to go for the coming growth period ahead. Its all pretty quiet in the winery at the moment . The Pinot noir is sitting on lees, the Gamay waiting to get go through malolactic ferm. I happened to come across a review of our 16 Pinot a few weeks back that I hadnt seen. For those interested in reading it, prepare your se...lves. 16 Pinot Review: Liffey Valley must be one of the tiniest producers in Tasmania, if not Australia. It proved impossible to track them down for a visit, much to my disappointment along with being organic since 1991, they seem to shun any form of technology (no website, no email address, no phone numbers) along with communication from the outside world. Liffey Valley has only one hectare (2.5 acres) of vineyard, planted solely to Pinot Noir. The vineyard is in the foothills of the Great Western Tiers at an elevation of 300 m. It is totally surrounded by native forests and completely uncontaminated by any pollutants from traffic, farming or industry. Compost grown, hand tended, hand picked, and vinified with minimal intervention. I found one bottle of this in a tiny independent wine shop in Tasmania. Screwcap. Black cherries and the scent of gingerbread just baked and at the very edges beginning to turn sugar-burnt brown. The smell of dark humus-rich earth. It tastes of rain and dried cranberries, of wet forest floor and mushrooms and autumn. A wine that reminds me of a spiders web in early morning a kind of fragile strength, catching milky sunlight in spell-bound dew drops, close to the ground, taut from one blade of grass to another, lace and snowflake and precision and so fine you hardly notice it. I can taste Darjeeling tea leaves, sifting through tannins as translucent and silky as dragonfly wings. Maya Angelou once wrote about a singer that she carried the music in her body as if it were a private thing, given into her care and protection. That would make a better tasting note than anything I could write. I would go to great lengths to find another bottle of Liffey Valley Pinot Noir. (TC) By tamlyn currin All the best, Adam

Organic, minimal-intervention, hand-picked and small-batch are all current buzz phrases in the wine industry the new-release 2018 pinot noir is right in the zone, with crisp nights and a long ripening period resulting in a wine of style and elegance with red berry flavours augmented by deli aromas, truffle notes and a clean, bright finish.

02.01.2022 6 pack cases delivered for $150. tasorganicwines.com.au Winsor Dobbins review: Organic, minimal-intervention, hand-picked and small-batch are all current buzz phrases in the wine industry, but the team at Tasmanian Organic Wines has been right across the current fashion for close to two decades, crafting tiny quantities of high-quality pinot noir in the Liffey Valley, down the road from Deloraine. The vineyard was planted by Ian Cairns in 1999 and has been farmed organically ...ever since. Now a gamay has been added to the range. The new-release 2018 pinot noir is right in the zone, with crisp nights and a long ripening period resulting in a wine of style and elegance with red berry flavours augmented by deli aromas, truffle notes and a clean, bright acid finish. The classic match for this delightfully structured pinot would be roast duck, but this would also pair brilliantly with stuffed mushrooms See more
