There really is a Devil's Corner and it's a section of Tamar River, very near Kayena Vineyard. The lee is a calm area of refuge for sailors away from the potentially wild waters of Whirlpool Reach to the south, it has been used as such for over two hundred years. Devils Corner are Tasmanian wines of the highest order, reflecting the natural variations engendered by climate and soil. Crafted from East Coast and Tamar Valley fruit, a Chardonnay wine of beautifully preserved Tasmanian bucolic charm, to accompany creamy risotto and the freshest fishes.
The Devil's Corner vines are closely managed to encourage optimal ripening, characterised by excellent flavour profile, judicious acids and exemplary retention of aromatics. The winemaking team's goal is to harness the pristine fruit characters of the Apple Isle, into distinctive styles of wine that speak of their provenance. Following harvest, grapes are immediately pressed, juices are run off skins and cold settled to remove solids. Some parcels remain unsettled to retain a measure of solid elements. Components are sent to fermenters for vinification under strict temperature controls, maximisizing the integrity and impact of vibrant fruit characters.
TASTING NOTES
Bright, pale straw with green tinges. Zesty lemon/ citrus aromas alongside banana and ripe yellow peach. Crisp, clean and refreshing mouthfeel, lemon and grapefruit, nectarines and a hint of nutmeg spice, flavours linger, satisfying and long. A dry finish with subdued astringency, adding definition to the refreshing palate.

About Tamar Ridge Wines
Great wines are made in the vineyard and it is the exceptional fruit grown at the Kayena Vineyard that forms the cornerstone of the Tamar Ridge and Devil’s Corner range of wines
Located on the western banks of the Tamar River, 40 kilometres north of Launceston, the Kayena Vineyard is planted to a range of cool climate varieties including Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Gris, Riesling, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. Employing state-of-the-art winemaking techniques, but with more than a few concessions to the traditional techniques that have served winemakers for centuries, our winemaking goal is to harness the pristine fruit characters the Kayena Vineyard produces, fashioning them into individual wine styles that speak of their cool origins.
