Bangor Vineyard Shed

Bangor is in the Tasmanian climate sweet spot for Pinot Noir, with outstanding fruit flavour.

RESERVE PINOT NOIR
Our Rating 5/5

Bangor Reserve Pinot Noir is grown on the gentle northerly aspect of the Bangor property, overlooking the township of Dunalley. The vines are tended and harvested by hand.

The grapes are fermented as a mix of whole bunches and destemmed fruit with both wild and cultured yeasts. Once pressed, the wine matures on lees in new and seasoned French oak barrels. The best 10 barrels comprise the final blend.

Deep red, Bangor Reserve Pinot Noir has black cherry flavours, a fine tannin structure and a long finish. Cellaring potential is seven years.

Bangor Vineyard Shed

A stunning winter afternoon in Dunalley Southern Tasmania

Bangor are a small family vineyard with the vines hand-tended to ensure the grapes are of the highest quality. They have 4 hectares of vines, growing Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris and Chardonnay.

At a latitude of 42°53’ South, Bangor’s vineyard is one of the most southerly in Tasmania, and the world, making it a true cool climate site.

Bangor’s vineyard overlooks the seaside township of Dunalley. A well drained clay-loam soil over ancient dolerite rock, combined with a northerly aspect, provides perfect growing conditions for premium quality Tasmanian wine.

Being coastal, frost is not an issue, and the view over Dunalley and Blackman Bay makes working in the vineyard a joy!

The perfect seafood match

VINTAGE MÉTHODE TRADITIONELLE
Our Rating 4.5/5

Bangor Vintage Méthode Traditionelle is a classic sparkling blend of cool climate Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, handpicked from the estate vineyard in southern Tasmania.

The traditional French method – méthode traditionelle – is used. The base wine is bottled with a small amount of yeast and sugar, which triggers a secondary fermentation and creates natural effervescence.

The wine then matures on lees in bottle for five years before it is prepared for release.

Golden straw, Bangor Vintage Méthode Traditionelle is light bodied and fruity with crisp acidity and a gentle toasty finish. Cellaring potential is eight years from release.

Bangor Wine & Oyster Shed

Wine, food & views

In 1856 freed convict John Dunbabin purchased Bangor's first parcel of land, paving the way for five generations of farming. In 2010 Matt and Vanessa Dunbabin established the Bangor winery and oyster shed.

Overlooking Blackman's Bay and the seaside township of Dunalley, Bangor is located at one of the most southerly vineyard sites in Tasmania and so the world: a true cool climate site. The vineyard lies on well drained clay loam soils over ancient dolerite rock, with a gentle northerly aspect. It is perfect for producing premium Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris and Chardonnay. Hand tending, small batches and minimal intervention characterize the winemaking.

The Reserve wines lead, a Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Other highlights are Jimmy's Hill Barrel Aged Pinot Gris, Abel Tasman Pinot Noir and the Vintage Méthode Traditionnelle.
