Producer Information
Situated just north of Hillwood on the eastern bank of the Tamar River, this is a beautiful and unique site, planted in 2000. Protected from the northerly winds of bass strait, the vineyard sits in a small valley, facing north/north east, it is a warm site, also influenced by the river which lies a few hundred metres to the south. There is two clones of pinot in this vineyard. One of the upright clones occupy the majority of the block, very common in the Tamar, and a small section of MV6, which has much smaller berries and compact bunches.. Vine age and yield management allow us to find the greatest potential in the upright clone, whilst MV6 is super low yielding and packs a heap of flavour and structure. In 2021 these were both picked and fermented together, the MV6 provided the 30% whole bunches that give this wine structure and spice. It was matured in mostly second use barriques for 11 months, bottled without fining or filtration. 2021 is the first individual release from this site since we took over farming this site in 2016. This is the wilder component of our previous flagship wine, the dog & wolf All of our single vineyard releases are 100% farmed, vinified & bottled by Ricky Evans and our small team at Woodlawn, our family farm – where we make our wine, and is home to our largest vineyard.
