Grown to the frigid climes of Central Otago, the vines at Prophet's Rock were established 1999 to the most auspicious sites in the nether regions around the ancient goldfields of Bendigo Creek.

Trentham Estate Sauvignon Blanc CONFIRM VINTAGE

Sauvignon Blanc Riverina New South Wales
Trentham have retained their identity as a unique, artisanal winemaking estate, amongst the boundless expanse of commercial Riverina vineyards. Close attention to each individual vine is the key, harvests of piquantly flavoured Sauvignon Blanc with bright acids and exemplary varietal charm are the result. Textural and effusive like a tropical fruit frappe, lime and gooseberry, lychee and guava characters flow from the juicy palate before a long passionfruit finish, the first choice in a crisp dry white, to accompany crustacea, hors d’oeuvres and pate.
Available by the dozen
Case of 12
$215.00
Trentham has three separate vineyards of Sauvignon Blanc, an older site planted in the early 1990s and two younger blocks of select clonal stock. The older site is low yielding, producing wines with more body. The younger vineyards produce wines with more varietal lift and definition. Vintage is determined by ripeness, healthy acids and the desired levels of baume. Immediately following harvest, grapes are destemmed and crushed. The musts are chilled and moved through the press for a term of cold settling, clarified juices are cold fermented with a select yeast over a course of three weeks. Upon completion, batches are treated to a relaxed settle before racking and assemblage into the final wine.
Light straw hues. Lifted aromas, dry flintiness and light herbaceous hints, tropicals, passionfruit and lychee. Great depth of palate, gooseberries and lychee, guavas and lime, within a crisp, crystal mouthfeel. Best enjoyed in its youth, to fully appreciate the evocative, fresh fruit flavours, serve chilled alongside seafood and white meat salads. Turkey makes the perfect match.

Trentham Estate
The Murphy Family migrated to Australia from Ireland in 1909 and were one of the first settlers to establish vineyards at Merbein 15km west of Mildura

The Murphys eventually moved to Trentham Cliffs in 1960 and re-developed one of the local properties which was once part of a large sheep station. Jack and Moya Murphy established their farm, which included plantings such as citrus, vegetables and grapes for fortified wines, and then later re-planted to specialize in varietal grapes. The vines flourished in the rich red loam over limestone soils, nurtured by water from the Murray River. The first vintage was produced in 1984, using only 6 tonnes of grapes.

Trentham Estate

Jack Murphy instilled his knowledge of viticulture to his sons Anthony and Patrick, who established the Trentham Estate in 1988. Today the Estate is a well recognised establishment, growing and producing highly commended wines. The Estate employs a further fifteen dedicated and skilled full time staff for the vineyard, winemaking, marketing, restaurant and administration. The Murphy Vineyards now comprises 60 ha under vine of various age, with the oldest being planted in 1952, and the winemaking facility has expanded from its first crush, to some 2,000 tonnes of premium varietal fruit.

Trentham Estate has continued to produce more vintages of high quality, proving the Estate’s label an award winner. The Estate is continually striving to achieve the best possible fruit, involving use of many different varieties with many different clones. Pat and Anthony Murphy enjoy many decades of collective experience in viticulture, and this shows in the long list of award winning wines. Known for their full flavour, structure and varietal character, it certainly proves that good wines are made in the vineyard.

Vineyard manager Pat completed Senior at St Patrick' s College and with a long history of farming in his veins, continued his education at Yanco Agricultural College. Upon completion, Patrick received a certificate in Farm Management, and he returned to apply his knowledge of viticulture to the vines of Murphy Vineyards.
