Lowestoft Woodlands Single Vineyard Pinot Noir 2021

Experience the timeless allure of Lowestoft Homestead, an historic Tasmanian gem constructed between 1839 and 1850. Nestled along the serene banks of the Derwent River, this captivating estate offers panoramic views of the iconic Mona museum, the artistic haven, and the Moorilla Winery.

The heart of Lowestoft lies in its intimate 3-hectare vineyard, a tapestry of ancient Pinot Noir vines first planted in 1986. This vineyard, densely packed with 8,300 vines per hectare, boasts some of Tasmania's oldest and most coveted grape varieties.

With a dedication to excellence, our approach extends beyond our own vineyard's capacity. We meticulously curate grapes from premier growers across diverse subregions like the Huon Valley, Derwent Valley, Coal River Valley, and Tamar Valley. This enables us to craft wines that showcase the distinct character of each unique terroir.

In a testament to our commitment, we've expanded our influence by establishing two new vineyards: Strelley Farm in Richmond, adjacent to the Coal River Valley, and Gilling Brook in Forcett to the east of Strelley Farm. These vineyards boast optimal north and north-east facing slopes, enriched by superior soil profiles and abundant water sources – a crucial advantage in the arid Coal River Valley, where rainfall averages just 300–500mm annually.

From the 2023 vintage onwards, the fruits of these new vineyards will grace our collection, enhancing the Lowestoft legacy. The finest selections from each year will converge under the guidance of chief winemaker Liam McElhinney at Tasmanian Vintners, wholly owned by the esteemed Fogarty Wine Group. Embrace the symphony of history, terroir, and expertise in every bottle of Lowestoft wine.
