GOLD medal, 96 points

Precise flinty style, with grapefruit and tension, length and persistence with steely acidty and fine savoury char. Cap gun, scratched lemon skin. Nice flow and oak character on palate. Smart wine

Lovely bright, sweet whole berry action with some bunchy reduction. Black glossy, spicy fruit, good presence, texture, fruit weight and spice.

COOL CLIMATE WINES

Our grapes are grown on the Meadowbank vineyard, approximately 60 kms northwest of Hobart. Its rugged topography is bounded by the fast flowing, pristine waters of the Derwent River. These grapes are used to create our unique Chardonnay and Pinot Noir single vineyard wines.
