Martin Shaw and Michael Hill Smith MW purchased the vineyard in 2011 and now make two wines – Tolpuddle Vineyard Chardonnay and Tolpuddle Vineyard Pinot Noir. They believe Tolpuddle is one of Australia’s great single vineyards, with plantings of 50% Chardonnay and 50% Pinot Noir.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLOCATION OF VINEYARD\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eLocated about 20 minutes drive from Hobart, in Tasmania’s southeast, the Coal River Valley has established a reputation for growing exceptional quality grapes. With a climate at the cool extremes for viticulture in Australia, it is no surprise that Chardonnay and Pinot Noir perform so splendidly. An anomaly for such a cool climate, the rainfall is significantly lower than many of Australia’s other cool climate regions, with an average of approximately 500mm of rain per year. This cool but relatively dry climate allows the grapes to ripen slowly in autumn, without the disease pressure that heavy rainfall can bring. The vineyard is planted with mature Chardonnay and Pinot Noir vines, facing northeast and sloping gently up from Back Tea Tree Road. The soil is light silica over sandstone and of moderate vigor, ensuring well-balanced vines producing grapes of great flavor and intensity.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWINEMAKING PHILOSOPHY\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTolpuddle Vineyard has a unique, strong, and expressive character. Commitment in the vineyard, with an emphasis on working by hand, augments the site’s natural character at its best, while also ensuring that the best from each set of vintage conditions are captured in the wines. The wines are made in a respectful way, using traditional, low intervention winemaking methods.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"tolpuddle-pinot-noir-gift-hamper-includes-2-premium-wine-glass","title":"Tolpuddle Pinot Noir 2024 Gift Hamper includes 2 Premium Wine Glasses","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"extract\" id=\"phmain_0_phcontent_1_KKWineItem_ExtractWrapper\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTolpuddle Vineyard Pinot Noir 13.5% Gift Hamper includes 2 Premium Wine Glasses\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\"\u003eIncludes\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\"\u003e• Tolpuddle Pinot Noir 13.5% 750ML\u003cbr\u003e• \u003cspan\u003e2 Luigi Bormioli Italian Crystal Stemless Wine Glass Gift Boxed\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e• Beautifully presented in a Hamper Box\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"extract\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTolpuddle Vineyard:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFirst Planted:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e1988 to Chardonnay and Pinot Noir\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWinemakers\u003c\/strong\u003e: Martin Shaw and Adam Wadewitz\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Tolpuddle Vineyard","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46215733903593,"sku":"TVPN-2022-13.5%-ham","price":199.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2435\/3999\/files\/TolpuddlePinotNoirGiftHamperTheWineProvidore_2.jpg?v=1703316637"},{"product_id":"personalised-tolpuddle-vineyard-chardonnay-2024","title":"Personalised Tolpuddle Vineyard Chardonnay 2024","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePersonalised \u003c\/span\u003eTolpuddle Vineyard Chardonnay 2024\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLifted aromas of orange blossom and white jasmine are hallmarks of a cooler season.
