About The Wine
Shy Susan has come out of the blocks all guns blazing with a suite of impeccable Tasmanian wines that are garnering huge critical acclaim.
Winemakers Jo Marsh and Glenn James have crafted a beautiful Pinot Noir here, from a blend of Tasman Peninsula, Coal River Valley and Derwent Valley fruit.
It's silky, seductive and poised. A class act Pinot Noir that will drink wonderfully now and for the next decade plus.
About Shy Susan
Glenn James is the Chief Winemaker at Winemaking Tasmania. He is charged with making the wines of many different Tasmanian labels who are two small to process their own fruit.
In this position he comes across some excellent fruit. In 2016, he and winemaker wife Jo Marsh liked the look of a couple particular parcels of fruit and ear-marked them for their own release. That was a very good call.
Shy Susan (Tetratheca gunnii) is a critically endangered wildflower endemic to a tiny part of Tasmania.
