Description

Ricky Evans has spent the last decade establishing himself as one of Tasmania’s most exciting winemakers, with his Woodlawn label marking the next step in that journey.

Best known for his work under Two Tonne Tasmania, Ricky has expanded his focus to crafting single-vineyard expressions that showcase the unique personality of Tasmanian terroir. This Cuvée 231 is his take on premium Tasmanian sparkling, blending multiple vintages from across his vineyard sites to create a wine of complexity, elegance, and pure drinkability.

Crafted using the traditional method, this sparkling is a blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, sourced from Ricky’s carefully managed vineyards in the Tamar Valley. Aged on lees for extended time before release, it brings layers of texture and depth while retaining the cool-climate acidity that makes Tasmanian sparkling so exciting.

On the nose, brioche, citrus zest, and fresh green apple leap from the glass, supported by a fine bead of bubbles. The palate is crisp yet creamy, with flavours of lemon curd, white peach, and roasted almonds, leading into a long, mineral-driven finish.

For those chasing top-quality Tasmanian fizz without the hefty price tag, this is a brilliantly crafted, versatile sparkling that will elevate any occasion.

The fruit is sourced from a handful of sites in the Tamar Valley. It was picked between 11-11.5% potential alcohol, capturing plenty of ripe flavours for this aperitif-style first release. This is the first disgorgement from the 2023 vintage (hence the name 231), with a later disgorgement to come in a few months. Pinot Noir accounts for 80% of the blend, with the balance comprising Chardonnay that went through full malolactic conversion, lending texture and weight to the Pinot’s fresh-berry profile. The fruit was pressed as bunches to tank for a slow, cool ferment and maturation on lees for six months. The wine was then blended and spent a further 14 months on lees in bottle before disgorgement with 6g/L dosage.

Woodlawn Tasmania

Woodlawn Tasmania is the umbrella under which Ricky Evans' three wine labels coalesce.

His three labels include the regional Two Tonne Tasmania series of Tamar Valley Riesling, Chardonnay and sub-regional Pinot Noirs, the experimental series of wines under the Havilah label made for his wine bar in Launceston of the same name and his Single Vineyard range of exceptional premium wines from his beloved Tamar Valley vineyards farmed by Ricky himself.

Evans is one of Tasmania's most dynamic winemakers. Over his time since serendipitously starting the Two Tonne Tasmania label in 2013, Ricky's approach to both farming grapes and making wine has matured dramatically. The young gun is now an established player in the upper echelon of the island and is set to be one of Tasmania's most influential voices in wine for many years to come.
