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.

    2nd bottle.

    First bottle I think we got carried away by the hype

    2nd bottle - well good but not great. Not great body or acid

    Halliday score way over the top per usual

FaQs

Do I have to order in dozens? No, please mix it up! You can order wines in any quantity and variation you like. You can order 1 bottle or 50. We challenge you to make the ultimate mixed pack of wine!

Are there volume discounts? No, our pricing is designed to be the best in market already - no marking up and then discounting down! For very large orders (weddings, etc) we are open to negotiating though. Just give us a call.

Do we price match? Yes, within reason. Everyday low & consistent pricing is something we strongly believe in. We want our customers to feel confident they are always getting the best price. If you see a price lower somewhere else let us know and we'll consider matching it. We'll even retrospectively issue you store credit if you have already purchased from us but you see a lower price somewhere later on. Our price match policy can be seen here.

Can coupons and discounts be stacked? No, only one discount or coupon can be applied to an order at once.

I am trying to add more of a wine to my cart but it won’t let me? This means we are running low on stock of that wine. So for example, if the website will only allow you to add 3 bottles and no more, then that is all we have of that particular wine. The good news is we may be able to order more for you. Just contact us on 02 8376 8775 or hello@differentdrop.com and we'll organise the additional quantity for you.

Does Different Drop have a physical store? No. Just an a warehouse/office. We occasionally do events however, so sign up to our newsletter or follow us on instagram to stay in the loop.

Can I special order a wine you do not sell? If it’s doable, then we’ll make it happen. Just contact us directly via phone, chat or email and we’ll find out for you right away. Please note that in most cases special orders such as these will need to be in full case lots (6 or 12 bottles).
