Description

When Peter Dredge and his wife are drinking at home, more often than not, they're drinking low-dosage Champagne (usually from a grower). But drinking these beautiful, piercing, dry sparklings on the regular can be an expensive business. 

Enter the Dr. Edge Brut Nature...

This is a non-vintage Tasmanian sparkling - with zero dosage - and just a couple of years in bottle. The fruit - a blend of Pinot Noir, Chardonnay & Pinot Meunier - hails from premium sites in Tamar Valley in the north of Tasmania. Dredge has a wealth of experience making traditional method sparkling, from years working at Bay of Fires adn House of Arras and more recently for Meadowbank - now those expertise come to the fore under the Dr. Edge label.

If you imagine biting into a crisp, fresh granny smith apple while facing the bracing Tasmanian wind and sea spray on the coast of the Apple Isle you'll get a mental picture of what drinking this is like.

It's fresh, it's racy, it would go beautifully with a plate of oysters. A fantastic, frisky fizz from our favourite Tassie Doctor.

"Dr Edge 'Brut Nature' is a Traditional Method Sparkling blend of Tamar Valley Pinot Noir, Chardonnay & Pinot Meunier.

Predominantly 2022 and 2021 base material, the wine is left to develop in bottle on tirage for 2 years. - Disgorged 'Brut Nature' or 'Bone Dry' - July 2024."

Dr. Edge

Peter Dredge is Dr. Edge. He is one of the most intuitive and talented winemakers on the Apple Isle.

With a wealth of experience garnered at wineries such as Bay of Fires, he has revitalised the Meadowbank label and returned it to its place as one of the must-watch vineyards in Tasmania.

Dr. Edge is his passion project where he can take risks and make Pinot Noir, Chardonnay & Riesling that truly excites him. His creativity can fly under the Dr. Edge banner and wines that walk a fine line of tension, funk and freshness invariably arise.

Only small batches of wine is produced, all made by hand, and typically they sell out in short order. Playful, pleasurable and remarkably thoughtful, the Dr. Edge creations are riveting things to drink and have rightfully earned cult status among collectors of Tasmania's finest.

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.
