Tolpuddle Vineyard in the Coal River Valley region of Southern Tasmania was established in 1988; taking its name from the Tolpuddle Martyrs; English convicts transported to Tasmania for forming an agricultural union. Martin Shaw, Michael Hill Smith MW and Matthew Hill Smith purchased the vineyard in 2011 with a vision of making Tolpuddle one of Australia's great single vineyards.
When discussing Australia's best Pinot Noir, the name Tolpuddle is never far from the conversation. Over the past decade, Tolpuddle have released a string of spectacular Pinot Noir that has established it as one of Australia's most demanded red wines. The 2023 Tolpuddle Pinot Noir is another spectacular release from another small yet high quality vintage. A wine that always attracts plenty of attention, our limited stocks will sell out quickly.
