We're not quite there yet but our 2020 harvest will be starting soon.
We've been very fortunate in Tasmania to have escaped the heat, bushfires and heavy rain that have impacted other wine regions in Australia.
Our early growing season was windy, cool and much drier than usual which meant the vines grew more slowly. But recent rain and warm conditions have seen the vines bounce back.
Yields will certainly be down on previous seasons and there is some 'hen & chicken'- where there are berries of different sizes in a bunch. But we're looking forward to some good, concentrated flavours from the 2020 Vintage.
If wine will help you get through these tough times, we offer free delivery within Australia, order online any time.
Thank you for your support, keep safe & drinking good wine.

Congratulations Magnum Winners
3 lucky people who visited us over the Summer and joined our email list will be receiving a magnum of Moores Hill Riesling. These elegant bottles contain 1.5L of wine. You'll need a tall fridge or a big esky to chill it down. And a few friends to help drink it. Enjoy!
Farewell Otto
