Tasmania is a mighty mouse of a region thats roaring so loud the whole world is hearing the tune. Pinot is the thing its most famed for, followed closely by the likes of Chardonnay and Riesling. Pressing Matters is located in the Coal River Valley, which is a mere 13% of the total 2000 hectares, making it by the very broadest definitions a micro- producer from a micro-region.
What makes this winery so interesting is that its not just all about the award-winning Pinot. Their rieslings are the source of much pride - all along the spectrum from the zero sugar Pressing Matters Riesling R Zero 2022 [JH 93] @ $40 and up the scale to the 139 grams of sugar heavyweight Pressing Matters Riesling R139 2022 @ $32. [JH 97, Wine Companion Sweet Wine of the Year]. - Both of which are included in the dinner lineup.
Join us for a detailed sit-down with owner Greg Melick AO SC over dinner at Patrick Heuberger's newly renovated Atout restaurant. Patrick is one of the finest wizards of French cuisine here in Singapore and the combination of talents will make for an extraordinary event.
