As Australia's first PhD in viticulture, founder of Pipers Brook Vineyard and Pirie Estate, recipient of the Australia Medal for his services to Tasmanian tourism and wine, Andrew Pirie's contribution to the industry is almost without peer. Pirie Sparkling is the latest instalment of a project that began with the inaugural launch in 1995, it was received with immense international acclaim. Matthew Jukes declared it the greatest sparkling wine ever produced outside of Champagne! Pirie endures as one of the nation's most pre eminent, luxury level effervescent wines, its vigorous mousse persisting on a fine mineral finish.

More About Pirie Wines
Pirie Tasmania is the latest evolution of one man's belief that Tasmania can be one of the truly great wine regions of the world
The Tamar Valley is situated in the north of Tasmania at a latitude of around 41-42° south. Approximately the same length as the Cote d'Or in Burgundy (90km) and with a similar cool, humid climate, vineyards occupy favoured N/NE facing sites predominantly along the west bank of the river. Chardonnay, Riesling, Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Gris and Gewurztraminer are all grown here, producing fresh, extremely elegant whites. But for red wines, Pinot Noir is king. From the bright cherry and raspberry scented wines from Kayena in the Lower Tamar, to the heady truffle and black cherry aromas from the Upper Tamar vineyards at Relbia and White Hills, the variety of styles from this small region prove that the French do not have a monopoly on terroir.
