Trying to order Mulled Wine Mix?

Wednesday, 06 July 2011 00:00

Many people have been asking why our popular Mulled Wine Mix packs aren't available to order online.

Unfortunately, we've been experiencing problems with applying postal charges to Mulled Wine Mix with our online shopping facility so unfortunately have had to remove it from the website shopping cart until we can get it resolved.

Currently, the easiest method of ordering Mulled Wine Mix packs is by contacting us at the cellar door. We will take your order details, confirm the price and request your preferred method of payment.

When Mulled Wine Mix packs are ordered with cases of wine there is no additional charge for postage. Postal charges do apply when packs are supplied separately to wine orders.

If you would like to include a pack or two of Mulled Wine Mix with your online wine order, please include a message in the "Special Instructions" field which you will find on the Order Confirmation page (last page) of the secure shopping cart process. We will then contact you to confirm the order and additional Mulled Wine payment details.

Alternatively, you can email or phone us at any time to arrange an order with or without any wine purchase.

Hope this helps and our apologies for any inconvenience which may be experienced until we can get Mulled Wine Mix packs back online.

Outstanding Wine Industry Honour!

Monday, 15 November 2010 21:36

Tassell Park Wine's commitment to producing outstanding quality premium boutique wines was again rewarded with high praise and recognition by its peers at the 2010 West Australian Wine Industry Awards announced at the Perth Parmelia Hilton Hotel on Friday night 12th November.

For the second year in a row they were awarded the trophy for the "Best Estate Grown Red" wine - this year for the Tassell Park Wines 2008 Shiraz. Their 2008 "Private Bin" label Shiraz was also a finalist in the same category and was awarded a "Commendation" as a runner up wine.

Tassell Park also impressed the judges with two other wines featured as finalists in the "Best Estate Grown White" category - the yet to be released 2010 Sauvignon Blanc and 2010 Sauvignon Blanc Semillon.

The 2010 results show that these boutique styles of wine production do result in excellence, with Tassell Park Wines from Margaret River, a producer of just 5,000 cases per year, taking out not only Best Estate-Grown Red, but having three other wines among the finalists in entered categories, one of which won a commendation. Aymee Mastaglia, General Manager, WIAWA.

At the same event in 2009 Tassell Park received trophies in the two categories "Best Estate Grown Red" - 2007 "Private Bin" Shiraz and "Best Estate Grown White" - 2008 Chardonnay. The first time the same winery had won both at the one event.

A Trio of Trophy Wins!

Friday, 24 September 2010 13:36

Tassell Park Wines Margaret River has again re-affirmed its position as a premium, estate grown boutique wine producer by winning three top wine awards at a national and state level.

At the 2010 Australian Boutique Wine Awards announced in Sydney on Friday 13 August, 2010 , we were awarded not one but two trophies for the 2008 Cabernet Merlot. It was awarded the Best Red Blend trophy plus the honour of being judged the overall Best Boutique Estate Grown & Produced Wine of the show. Tricia Tassell and winemaker, Peter Stanlake, were in Sydney to accept both awards. “Genuinely, estate grown and produced is what we are all about. To now be recognised at a national - actually international - level is so rewarding. We don’t take it for granted and thank every member of our small team in continuing to produce the very best grapes and wines we can.” said Tricia. The Australian Boutique Wine Awards are judged from wines entered by boutique wineries throughout Australia and New Zealand.

A few days later in Perth at the 2010 Sheraton WA Wine Awards dinner Tassell Park was awarded the Silver trophy for the Best Dry White in the Sauvignon Blanc class for their 2010 Sauvignon Blanc. Tricia Tassell said: “Our Sauvignon Blanc has consistently been rated as one of Margaret River’s best. It is the wine variety which first put us on the map and we are thrilled to receive this honour amongst our peers at such a prestigious event.”

Winning Wines at Winewise!

Wednesday, 14 July 2010 09:14

The 2010 Winewise Small Vigneron Awards have just been announced and Tassell Park Wines Margaret River is thrilled to have received six major medals from this national event.

Here are the award-winning wines:

SILVER	2008 Cabernet Sauvignon
SILVER	2008 "Private Bin" Shiraz (not yet released)
BRONZE	2009 "Private Bin" Chardonnay
BRONZE	2009 Sauvignon Blanc Semillon
BRONZE	2008 Shiraz
BRONZE	2008 Cabernet Merlot

Now in its twenty-first year, the Awards were judged in Canberra on 1-3 July 2010 by one of Australia's most experienced panels, including respected wine critic and wine writer James Halliday AM, and chaired by prominent Australian wine judge Lester Jesberg (WinewiseMagazine editor).

The Awards recognize excellence in boutique winemaking, the heart and soul of the Australian wine industry. The Awards are open only to producers who crushed 250 tonnes or less in 2010 - here at Tassell Park Wines we produce less than 50 tonnes so our wonderful Margaret River wines are really proving their quality on the national stage. The Awards pioneered judging wines in small regional groupings so that distinct regional styles are encouraged.

This year's event attracted a record 1500 entries.

All the results for the 2010 Winewise Small Vigneron Awards are available on the Winewise Magazine website at: www.winewise.net.au/svaresults.htm.
