Yet another first for Puddleduck – Our first vintage of Cabernet Sauvignon was produced from fruit sourced in the Coal River Valley. 2006 was a very early ripening year, and our driest in 80 years and that combination of factors plus low yielding vines has produced a stunning Tasmanian Cabernet. Big silky tannins from 14 months spent in French oak barriques, a heady mix of spice and sweet fruit flavours mingle to create a sophisticated and complex wine. Although youthful at the moment this wine will age beautifully over the next 8 -10 years.

Our eagerly awaited 5th vintage of Sauvignon Blanc has created a stunning combination of gooseberry with tropical fruit overtones and a lingering citrusy finish. Serve chilled with spicy Asian foods. For anyone wanting to secure stocks for next year please join our mailing list.

In honour of Bazil our vineyard dog who won the prestigious title of “Vineyard Dog of the Year” for Tasmania, this wine has been made from younger Pinot Noir vines, and is a refreshing combination of smokiness from 8 months in French oak barriques, mint and violets.
Enjoy with rare roast beef or lamb dishes. Cellar for up to 5 years if you wish.
