About The Pack
The meteoric rise in popularity of Tasmanian Pinot Noir is one of the hottest trends in Australian wine right now.
Our most southern state can't produce enough to keep up with demand - as such we've seen prices for Tassie Pinot rise and rise over the last few years.
But there are a few dead-set bargains still available from the Apple Isle if you know where to look. This delicious mixed pack of six Pinot Noirs from all over the state is the perfect way to get a taste of Tassie with busting the bank!
2021 Hughes & Hughes Pinot Noir
As the demand for fruit in Tasmania increases, so too are the prices. The top value Pinot Noirs are becoming rare as hens' teeth, but here's one that you can fill your boots with if you want a stylish Tassie Pinot that won't bust the bank.
This is fruit from the Coal River, Derwent and Tamar Valleys fermented in small batches in a bunch of different ways. Some whole bunch, some whole berry, lots of experimenting from winemaker Jonathan Hughes to see what works, then finally a blend of the best parts.
It's a great drink and remarkable value. There just aren't many Pinots at this price from the Apple Isle that will deliver the interest and satisfaction of the Hughes & Hughes.
The perfect mid-week Tasmanian Pinot Noir.

Vintage after vintage, Holm Oak produces some of the best value for money Pinot Noirs in Australia. You simply cannot help but admire how much flavour and vivacity it packs in such a delicate number. It has moxie. It's the Little Engine That Could.
So, so pale in the glass. There is something about it which is just immediately enticing. Maybe it's the fragrance coming from the wine, maybe it's the knowledge that this is only the tip of the iceberg. But the second you taste it you're utterly whisked away. It's very much a dancer, with delicate flavours of berries, spice and herbs flitting hither and thither. You can't help but smile.

The STH (South) Pinot Noir is the final piece of the Two Tonne Tasmania sub-regional Pinot Noir puzzle.
Ricky sourced parcels of fruit from three different sites - Nocton and Brinktop in the Coal River Valley, and Kinvarra in the Derwent Valley. He uses 30% whole bunches, giving a lovely spice and balance to the ripe mature fruit from the Nocton vineyard.
Of the three excellent sub-regional Pinots in Ricky's range, this is the biggest, darkest and plushest of the bunch. It's also the most limited, so get in quick.

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.
