Fragrant, fresh and full of vibrant fruit, the Ninth Island label perfectly captures the distinctive charm of the Tamar Valley wine region. Ninth Island is named after a tiny island that sits alone in the Bass Strait, just offshore from the Pipers Brook Estate where these wines are crafted. The island's windswept, pristine environment is the inspiration behind this modern range of wines that capture the wild flavours of Tasmania. The Ninth Island vineyard is one of Tasmania’s most spectacular vineyard sites, set in the beautiful Tamar Valley, with mountain backdrops and avenues of 100 year old oak trees. The manicured vineyard enjoys both the morning and afternoon sun as well as black cracking clay soils which offer a steady supply of moisture and nourishment to the vines.
