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

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. 

2018 Sangiovese

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

Tasting Notes

Take the time to savour this wine: walk around the room or stroll outside, toast your friends, then revisit the aroma and note the change to dried cherries, figs, and maybe roses!!! This wine is aged in old oak barrels and is a ‘rustic’ flavoured (dark chocolate & smoky) wine version of a Sangiovese, the other is a fruit-forward style. Chill this wine in the fridge for extra depth.   

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.
