Tasmania

Tasmania’s cool climate specialises in wines that other parts of Australia are often too warm to produce. Tasmania shares the 42nd parallel of latitude with the northern part of New Zealand's South Island producing similarly complex and unique cool climate varietal wines. Premium sparkling wines, high quality Chardonnay, complex Pinot Noir, fashionable Pinot Gris, crystalline Sauvignon Blanc, and long-cellaring Riesling excel in Tasmania. The cold Antarctic air means the grapes ripen slowly, which increases the final complexity of the wines. Although vineyards in Tasmania are small, they have a big reputation for quality. From Pipers River to Tamar Valley, some of the most important boutique wineries, as well as big names with an interest in the quality wine Tasmania’s cool climate can produce. The Heemskerk label produces benchmark Tasmanian varieties and styles such as their Sparkling, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir.
