2015 Cabernet Franc

Tasting Notes

“Medium to full red colour with a purple tinge. The bouquet reveals herbal, vegetable and compost aromas possibly indicating whole-bunch fermentation. The wine is medium to full-bodied and admirably soft. There's a big centre of fruit-sweetness and the wine seems quite developed for its years… quite a good wine”. Huon Hooke

Huon Hooke: 88 points.

Sparkling Chardonnay/Pinot Noir

Introducing our stunning new-look labels! 

Huon Hooke: 90 out of 100

Tasting Notes

“Medium straw-yellow colour with a resiny, toasty, straw bouquet; the wine has substantial aged character and some complexity. Toasty, roasted hazelnut flavours, dry and savoury yet also soft and balanced, and easy-drinking. There is considerable richness and amplitude, but fades on the finish. It's more about Hunter terroir than anything”. Huon Hooke

2015 Sparkling Rosato

Rosato is Italian for pink

Tasting Notes

And pink it is! Have fun, celebrate and enjoy this rose-coloured wine by yourself or with some friends. A semi-sweet & lightly sparkling wine made from our Sangiovese grapes; tasting like strawberries and cream. A modern-day wine; sophisticated and luxurious made in the Prosecco style, that is, tank fermented.  

2020 Alicia Rosé

This wine has the alluring colour of pale rhubarb and is made from what our winemaker calls a 'field blend', Sangiovese, Tempranillo & Cabernet. It is a dry style of Rosé with citrus flavours, finishing with a toffee edge. For those of you who love a Rosé this is a WOW purchase. 

'Soft, fragrant and uplifting, reminiscent of my mother's soothing embrace'

2017 Estate Shiraz

Bright & cheerful with clear fruit flavours

Tasting Notes

Goodness me this is a delicious Shiraz. Made in the spirit of a true Hunter Valley Shiraz: meaning distinctly different from other Australian wine regions. This wine is medium bodied, fruity and lively, it is a drink-now wine but the longer it is in the cellar door it is really showing us how well this wine has been made and how well it is aging. 

2017 Verdelho

Pronounced Ver day hoh, or close to it.

This grape variety has its origins in Portugal. A deliciously fresh, clean and crisp wine; this drier style Verdelho is ready to drink now. This wine has tropical fruit flavours that typify a warmer climate Verdelho. Take that second sip for that more defining taste. Pair with food that has an Asian  kick to it such as chilli and lime. 

2018 Tempranillo

Pronounced Tempra nee yo

Tasting Notes

Spain’s favourite red wine and one of the world’s greatest grape varieties: smooth, fresh and fruity, simply gorgeous. Aging with the benefit of time spent on French and American oak, this wine has a velvety mouth feel with savoury and more earthy flavours. This wine will cellar for 10 plus years.

2018 Pinot Grigio

Full and fruity; the Italian way

Tasting Notes

“Light copper/brass colour, with an unusual aroma of nettles and dried herbs with some background passionfruit and lemon notes. It turns quite citrusy on the palate, with a gentle sweet-and-sour interplay. A left-field style, and nice”. Huon Hooke

Huon Hooke: 88 points. 

A drink-now wine and onwards to 2021
