The Bird in Hand Tasmanian Series is crafted to harness Tasmania’s cool-climate terroir and produce wines of distinct character and elegance. It is an ode to winemaking in the rugged wilderness of Australia’s final frontier.
The 2025 Sparkling is a vibrant, fruit-forward sparkling wine, crafted from single vineyard grapes sourced from our property in the Tamar Valley.
A blend of 50% Pinot Noir and 50% Chardonnay, grapes were handpicked and whole bunch pressed, followed by a slow, cool fermentation to maintain the freshness and aromatics. The wine was left to mature on light lees for six weeks, enhancing its complexity. With 100% malolactic fermentation, the acidity is beautifully softened, lending a roundness that balances the wine’s vibrant energy.
Bright and fresh, the bouquet shows red apple, citrus blossom, and lemon zest, with floral and mineral notes. The palate is crisp and vibrant, led by green apple and citrus, with hints of strawberry and fine bubbles. This wine is a lively expression of place and purity.
Perfectly suited to fresh oysters, prawns, sashimi, goats curd and Jamón.
Beautifully presented within a Gift Box.
