Tolpuddle Chardonnay 2020
* Across any 6 bottles of wine, when purchased in store.
Tolpuddle Vineyard in Tasmania Coal River Valley was planted 1988. The climate is cool and dry - ideal conditions to grow Chardonnay of exceptional quality. We believe Tolpuddle is one of Australia's great single vineyards.
It took its name from the Tolpuddle Martyrs: English convicts transported to Tasmania for forming an agricultural union. The leader of the Martyrs, George Loveless, served some of his sentence working on a property near Richmond, part of which is now Tolpuddle Vineyard.
The vineyard is planted with mature Chardonnay and Pinot Noir vines, facing north-east, and sloping gently up from Back Tea Tree Road. The soil is light silica over sandstone and of moderate vigour, ensuring well-balanced vines producing grapes of great flavour and intensity.
