Riesling

Made in a dry style from vines planted in 1970. It typically has mineral flavours accompanying the characteristic Riesling citrus notes. It is made to deliberately have some yeast characters, but botrytis is avoided. Ages well in good storage conditions for up to ten years

 

 

Pinot Noir

Made from a section of our "new" vines planted in 2000> It is assembled from a blend of clones,.all of which are severely crop thinned to lower yields and increase fruit intensity. Our first vintage was released in 2004

 

 

 

Black Cabernet

Again made from our "new" vines planted in 2000. A fresh early maturing style full of flavour and character, which should age well for five years

 

 

Black Shiraz

The last of the trio of wines made from our new vineyard. It is typically full of ripe Shiraz pepper and spice, with balancing French oak

 

 

Cabernet Merlot

This wine was first made in 1976. It does not emulate the current style of full bodied hot alcoholic wines but rather is a wine of finesse with delicate structure. It ages well for ten years and beyond

 

 

Shiraz

Made also from our old vines planted in 1970. This wine is our flagship - the depth and intensity of flavour from these vines is exceptional. Definitely not a "blockbuster" style, but with lovely elegance, and well proven ageing qualities
