Winemaker Tom Wallace is urging Australian wine lovers to give local sparkling wines a go over the festive season.
With cool-climate sparkling wines from Tasmania earning global attention, Wallace is encouraging drinkers to sample wines like his Pirie range.
Wallace is marketing “a truly Australian celebration” as an alternative to Champagne.
"Pirie is made from 100% Tasmanian grapes from our vineyard in the Tamar Valley,” Wallace says. “Our cool climate produces grapes with incredible acidity, giving the wines a unique tension and persistence that forms the backbone for excellent sparkling wine."
Wallace is passionate about crafting exceptional sparkling wines that showcase the unique terroir of Tasmania.
“What excites me most about making Pirie is the opportunity to capture the essence of Tasmania in every bottle. The cool climate and pristine environment contribute to the distinctive character of our wines."
The Pirie range includes Pirie NV ($35), above, and Pirie 2020 Vintage ($55).
“Forget Champagne this Christmas and do yourself a favour and celebrate with award-winning Tasmanian sparkling that everyone will enjoy,” Wallace says.
The Pirie range is named after regional wine icon Dr Andrew Pirie. See pirietasmania.com.au
