“Meadowbank’s vineyard is one of the most important in Tasmanian wine; a whole host of the best quality and most interesting Tasmanian wine brands source fruit from it. The label and winery itself has had a bit of a hiatus but renowned winemaker Peter Dredge has teamed up with the Ellis family to kick things back into life.” Campbell Mattinson
The 2024 season saw a return to “normal” yields after a string of lean Chardonnay seasons at Meadowbank. Sunshine and warm days were a feature in summer, offset by cool nighttime temperatures, ensuring fresh natural acidity and vibrant fruit character. The fruit comes off the property’s oldest vines, which are P58 clone and well into their 30s. Peter Dredge describes the vineyard as a “beautiful little spot” with loose sand and sandstone overlaying dark brown coffee rock rich in iron oxides.
In the classic Meadowbank mould, it’s focused and chiselled with a rocky palate layered with citrus, white flowers and crunchy stone fruits. Partial malolactic fermentation allows the signature cool-climate acidity to pull everything together, leading to a tapered peak summer and ripening phase, offset by cooler nights that helped to maintain natural acidity.
