Pressing Matters has been producing premium Tasmanian wine since 2006.  They focus on two varieties, Pinot Noir and Riesling, which are extremely well suited to the cool climate of the Coal River Valley. 

This unique Pinot has over 18 different clone and rootstock combinations in the vineyard. Each combination has subtle but noticeable differences both in growth and flavours. Some will have larger bunches, some smaller, some grow upright, some like to flop. Some rootstocks are more tolerant of drought, others are not. Each combination has a different way of expressing the terroir of the vineyard; therefore each is picked by hand, and processed separately from the others. The wine is then stored in 100% French oak for 9-10 months before being bottled. This gives 18 different wines that we taste individually and blend into our final wine.
