Harvest Market Launches Christmas Wine Packs!

Launceston's Harvest Market is launching some Summer wine packs, and we are really thrilled to be included in them!

Winsor's Pick 6 Pack


This summer / Christmas pack includes a Sharmans' 2008 Sparkling and 2012 Sauvignon Blanc, a Humbug Reach 2009 Chardonnay, our One Bunch Chardonnay 2011, a Humbug Reach 2010 Pinot Noir and our gold medal One Bunch Pinot 2011.


Gold Medal 3 Pack


This three pack is exciting because Harvest's three wine producers all won gold medals over the previous few months! Sharmans' 2011 Pinot won a gold and a trophy at the International Cool Climate Wine Show in Mornington Peninsula, the same show where our One Bunch Pinot 2011 won a bronze. Our 2011 then won a gold medal, the only in its class, at Bathurst's National Cool Climate Wine Show. The sister wine to this one won a gold at the Hobart Wine Show under Guy Wagner's Bass Fine Wines label! The third wine is Humbug Reach's stunning 2011 Chardonnay - the only gold in it's class at the Hobart wine show.

We are all really proud of these wines, and I'm sure you'd find them a worthy Christmas to give someone...or give to yourself!

OBP2009 now available through The Trig!

We are pretty excited to see our 2009 OBP has been taken on by a boutique accommodation in Lilydale - The Trig, on Mt Arthur.

Susie and Gordon have created a new eco-friendly place to stay with stunning views over the surrounding region. It is a perfect spot to relax and share a bottle of red.

At the same time, through Susie's work with the Launceston Polytechnic, our 2010 Pinot is being used there at the Bistro, and is featuring as this week's featured wine!

2011 Pinot Review

Our OBP2011 has been reviewed by Winsor Dobbin in the Sunday Examiner, noting the 2011 as "by far the best to date" of our Pinots.

He says this is "a wine that is drinking delightfully well in its youth with bright, forward fruit, spicy/savoury notes and some delicious softness on the palate".

Many thanks to Winsor for that one!
