Managed by the Quealy team, the Tussie Mussie vineyard was planted on the site of a former rose farm in 2007 (hence the name—tussie mussie is an old term for a flower bouquet). Located in Merricks North, the vineyard’s three hectares of Pinot Noir and Gris vines are rooted in the Peninsula’s most prized soil: deep, red volcanic clays. Combined with the site’s northern location and north-facing aspect, these soils allow for slow ripening—key to developing complexity while maintaining bright natural acidity.
“A plush and seemingly riper offering, yet still totally delicious. Smells of pear drops and poached apples/pears topped with jasmine and baking spices. The palate is luscious with creamed honey and nutty lees, fruit sweetness coming through. It finishes all savoury and moreish.” 93pts | Jane Faulkner | Halliday Wine Companion
