Description

Tasmania and Pinot Rosé go hand in hand, and Ricky Evans knows exactly how to get the best from both. This year’s release is 100% Pinot Noir, sourced from two standout sites: Glen Shian in Relbia (early-ripening fruit with soft acidity) and Ricky’s own Woodlawn Vineyard (Abel clone, bright acid, savoury edge).

The fruit from Glen Shian was pressed straight to a mix of tank and seasoned foudre, adding depth and silkiness, while the Woodlawn component fermented in steel, keeping things crisp and vibrant. Bone dry, beautifully pale and effortlessly elegant, it’s the kind of rosé that balances freshness with a little extra weight, making it perfect for both summer sipping and year-round drinking.

It’s all about wild strawberries, citrus zest and a savoury, saline twist, with a clean, thirst-quenching finish. Put it on ice and pair it with good food, good company, and plenty of sunshine.

This year’s Havilah’s 100% Pinot Noir rosé comprises fruit from two vineyards: Glen Shian in Relbia and Ricky’s Woodlawn Vineyard near Swan Bay in Tamar Valley. The Glen Shian fruit was pressed as whole bunches to a mix of steel tank and one seasoned 2000-litre foudre for fermentation, while the Woodlawn fruit fermented in a steel tank. Glen Shian tends to ripen early and give fruit with slightly less acidity than nearby sites. These qualities allow Ricky to ferment to bone dryness and give a super light, elegant style of rosé. This year, Ricky had the luxury of adding some of his homegrown fruit to the mix, specifically a batch of Woodlawn’s Abel clone that lends a spine of acidity, some bright berry pop, and a complexing savoury profile.

Woodlawn Tasmania

Woodlawn Tasmania is the umbrella under which Ricky Evans' three wine labels coalesce.

His three labels include the regional Two Tonne Tasmania series of Tamar Valley Riesling, Chardonnay and sub-regional Pinot Noirs, the experimental series of wines under the Havilah label made for his wine bar in Launceston of the same name and his Single Vineyard range of exceptional premium wines from his beloved Tamar Valley vineyards farmed by Ricky himself.

Evans is one of Tasmania's most dynamic winemakers. Over his time since serendipitously starting the Two Tonne Tasmania label in 2013, Ricky's approach to both farming grapes and making wine has matured dramatically. The young gun is now an established player in the upper echelon of the island and is set to be one of Tasmania's most influential voices in wine for many years to come.

Ordering

We want Different Drop customers to always be getting the best price. If you see a lower price elsewhere, just get in touch and we will sort it out for you. We handle all our price-matching on a case by case basis.

Some things to keep in mind: 

  • Retrospective price-matching is available for 30 days after you have purchased from us.
  • The price match cannot be used in conjunction with a coupon or one-off deal we are offering. The idea is for you to get the best price in the market so if that is already achieved through a coupon then we won't price match on top of that.
  • We don't price match clearance or fire sales.
  • We’ll match the listed price as long as it is a legitimate offer and the competing store is actually able to fulfil the order (they have stock or more stock is en route). Essentially we won't price match cheeky vendors listing wines they have no hope of actually getting for you...
  • It must be a publicly listed price. We won't match a price that has been achieved through a coupon/cash-back arrangement, or through a non-advertised offer over the phone or otherwise.  
  • It is limited to a reasonable retail quantity.

We'll treat each price match request on its merit and reserve the right to refuse where we deem fit. For example, particularly rare wines, from non-trust-worthy vendors, in circumstances we deem illegitimate or if we feel our policy is being unfairly taken advantage of.

At the end of the day, we'll look after you and use common sense to ensure you're getting the best price, please just don't take the p%$$!

No, feel free to mix it up! There is no minimum requirement. You can order wines in any quantity or combination, 1 or 50+ bottles.

We stock three different sized gift boxes (single, three bottle and six), all are available for purchase for a flat rate of $8. They look great and make an awesome impression.

To add a gift box to your order, simply add at checkout. The special requests box is your friend, please give us as many details of what you are looking for and we will try our best, or get in contact to discuss it with you. 

If you want to bulk order gifts or if you have any trouble please email hello@differentdrop.com or call and we can try and help.

 

If you can't add more wine to your cart it means we are low on stock of that wine. For example, if you are only able to 3 bottles and no more that means we only have 3 bottles left of that wine. If it's a must have, please contact us and we may be able to order more in for you.
