The Heemskerk Vineyard was established in 1975 at the heart of the Pipers River district, the birthplace of Jansz Tasmania. The diligence of the team that tends the vines is rewarded by parcels of the highest quality fruit. Attention to detail in the vineyard, with crop thinning and disease monitoring, are essential to great winemaking. Every block of the Jansz vineyard is individually harvested by hand and treated to a gentle vinification, batch by batch, before a well considered assemblage. Four years ageing in bottle on yeast lees achieves classical yeast complexity in the final wine. Much of the finished wine is fermented and aged in French oak hogsheads for nine months.
