Wine Australia Webinar – Tasmanian Pinot Noir

Tasmania is one of Australia’s finest cool climate wine regions. The climate is cool by latitude, not altitude, and the weather is highly variable. The island is buffeted by winds from all directions,
and battles with rain and frosts.

From third-generation stalwarts to first-generation pioneers, Tasmania’s winemakers are embracing the region’s cool climate and expressing the unique character and terroirs of the island
with some diverse and delicious wines. Many grape varieties are now found in Tasmania, with producers constantly innovating and experimenting. But Pinot Noir is the star, representing almost half
of the island’s plantings for both still and sparkling wine.

Dip your toes and taste buds into the wonderful world of Tassie Pinot Noir. Explore the island’s exciting Pinot Noir scene with winemakers Peter Caldwell (Dalrymple Vineyards), Jeremy Dineen (Josef Chromy Wines) and Rebecca Duffy (Holm Oak Vineyards). They’ll be beaming in live from Tasmania, whilst Wine Tasmania’s Chief Executive Officer Sheralee Davies leads the conversation and fields questions.

The winemakers will be sharing their experiences in the vineyard and winery as well as their perspectives on the region and the wines. Find out what’s special about Tasmania and why it’s such a hotspot (or rather cool spot!) for Pinot Noir. Discover the opportunities and challenges working with this grape variety, what the winemakers are learning and how they’re adapting.
