Wellington & Wolfe is committed to producing high-quality wines that reflect the distinctive characteristics of Tasmania’s diverse landscapes. The winery emphasizes sustainability and minimal intervention in winemaking, allowing the natural attributes of the grapes to shine through.
Vintage Notes:
The 2023 vintage in Tasmania had ideal conditions for viticulture, with a warm growing season and cooler nights that allowed the grapes to achieve optimal ripeness while retaining their natural acidity, essential for crafting an off-dry style wine.

Pipers River is known for its cool climate, which is excellent for producing aromatic and expressive white wines. The diverse soil profiles in the region contribute to the development of fresh, vibrant flavors and a balanced acidity in the wines.
Winemaking Notes:
After hand harvesting, the grapes are gently pressed, with the juice fermented in stainless steel to preserve freshness and character. The off-dry style typically involves leaving a small amount of residual sugar, balanced by the wine's natural acidity, creating a pleasing mouthfeel and enhanced fruit expression.
