Tenuta Di Fessina

Formerly Two Tonne Tasmania, Woodlawn represents the full spectrum of wines crafted by Ricky Evans. It accounts for Two Tonne Tasmania, Havilah, and a slew of Single Vineyard wines which are made at the mercy of the Tamar’s seasonality.

While Two Tonne, the first of the brands originated in the Tamar, it now focuses on the sub-regionality of Tasmania. The core of Two Tonne is from the Tamar Valley (TMV) and grown by Ricky and his family while the wine produced from the East (EST) and South (STH) of the state are sourced from likeminded growers, who are more often than not, good mates as well. Winemaking here embraces fruit purity acting only as a frame for vintage and terroir.

Havilah, established in 2019, began as an outlet for Ricky’s creativity, exploring technique and varietal in equal measure. It offered an opportunity to handle fruit that otherwise didn’t fit with the concept of Two Tonne. While the wines still explore technique, experience with them means their style is more defined and a core range has emerged which includes Pinot Gris, Rose, an orange wine and a couple of reds.

The Single Vineyard wines, which could really fall under any of the three banners, have come through Ricky’s expansion of vineyard management and another level of care applied to several of the very best sites across the Tamar. The wines are terroir focused and lean into the longevity of the varietals when vinified at their best.

Woodlawn presents itself as one of the future greats of the Tamar Valley and we are ecstatic to be representing the breadth of Ricky’s talent.
