2021 Cabernet Franc 

The Cabernet Franc 2021 has a smooth rounded palate with a juicy centre, finishing with a mineral acid freshness. Tasting of fruity red berries and pronounced aromas of red cherry, wild raspberries and fresh cut herbs, this is a magnificent single vineyard example of a Hunter grown Cabernet Franc.

2018 Reserve Shiraz (Thomas Charles)

Region: Lovedale Hunter Valley

Variety: Shiraz

Alc: 14%

Tasting Notes

Our Reserve Shiraz is made from Shiraz grapes grown on our Estate. When we make our Shiraz we take into consideration how much oak the fruit can handle; because of the exceptional  nature of the 2018 harvest, the time on oak imparted additional tannins that contributed to the wine's natural stability. This strong tannin structure ensures this wine will age nicely for many years.

It is soft & smooth on the palate with intense flavours.   

2019 Sangiovese

Pronounced San jo vay zay;a famous Italian wine grape.

Tasting Notes

New in to our cellar door is our 2019 Sangiovese, made from grapes grown on our property. Aged in old oak barrels this wine is typical of the rustic-styled Sangiovese. It has the earthiness of berries, dark chocolate and plums. Infused with just a nice touch of Cabernet producing a wine that reflects the Hunter Valley terroir. Chill in the fridge in Summer for a further depth of flavour.   

2018 Late Harvest Botrytis Semillon

Dolce d’Oro means “Sweet Gold”

Tasting Notes

A late-harvest dessert wine that packs a punch. Botrytis, or Noble Rot, is a fungus that shrivels and decays the grapes; this wine is made from Sémillon grapes affected by this fungus. A good thing as the fungus adds complexity, and intensifies sweetness which makes the wine more viscous. This is a luscious after-dinner wine that is fresh and fruity; it is full of lemon, pineapple, honey and marmalade aromas and flavours. The finish is sweet, fresh and clean. For lovers of sweet wines it is perfect paired with desserts or cheese platters. 

This is a very appealing indulgence.
