One of the closely guarded secrets which remained cardinal to the preeminence of Grange Hermitage, was the sacred tally of exceptional vineyards which were called on to provide fruit for the new world's most stately Shiraz. The elite Grange Growers Club is one of the nation's more exclusive fellowships, an illustrious canon of distinguished wine growing families which are the stuff of Australian viticultural history. One of McLaren Vale's most eminent dynasties, Oliver's of Taranga were an essential inclusion into many of the mighty Grange's most memorable vintages. Oliver Taranga's estate flagship HJ Reserve Shiraz represents peerless value for a wine of its.. A principal part of the great grange»
Boutique winemaking affords great advantages, every vine can be uniquely husbanded, quality control is maximised, each barrel can be individually sampled and assembled into the perfect cuvee. Engineering types are innately suited to such viticulture. Colin Best embarked upon his sabbatical to the great vineyards of Burgundy's Cote d'Or. He returned to plant Pinot Noir on a craggy half hectare near Lobethal in the Adelaide Hills. An ancient masonry wool mill was outfitted for winemaking and Leabrook Estate was born. This is an aesthetic range of meticulously crafted, limited vintages, fashioned for the aficianado of bespoke, small batch, little vineyard wines... The lobethal libations of leabrook»
There are four tiny patches of vine at Scotchman's Hill, which have been mollycoddled by Robin Brockett, since the start of his tenure as chief winemaker in the 1980s. Excruciatingly limited after a strict pruning and rigorous sorting of fruit, they each yield a mere hundred cases of wine. Brockett has set aside the precious harvests of these superior blocks for his own label, a personal project to hand craft the finest of vintage, an exclusive range of the Bellarine's most elite single vineyard efforts. So besotted is Brockett by the spectacular quality of fruit from these four regal parcels, he has imported two 800 Litre Tuscan vinification Amphora from the.. Brockett begets the best of bellarine»
One of our nation's enduring winemaking dynasties, the Hamiltons planted vines just outside Adelaide in 1837. Great grandson Sydney Hamilton was a legendary and innovative viticulturalist, he ultimately made his own oenological conversion to the sacred Terra Rosa soils of Coonawarra in 1974, establishing one of Australia's most distinguished vineyards on a highly auspicious site, naming the property after forebear Lord Leconfield. An exceptional value for Cabernet of its class, presaged by a vigorously perfumed berry punnet nose, syrup textured, stately and refined, Leconfield makes a compelling..

Semillon Hunter Valley New South Wales
Hunter Valley Semillon is Australia's most profound contribution to the pantheon of conspicuous international white wine styles. Already showing development after some years in the bottle, the plain label behind this splendid rendition of Hunter Semillon belies the quality of fruit within. A generous wiine with evolving toastyness and sublime middle palate richness.
Ever since pioneers established their first vines in the Hunter Valley, it became clear to viticulturalists that the invigorating soils and mesoclimes could produce a style of wine which is unique to the world. Semillon grapes from prominent vineyards are crushed and de-stemmed before the must is chilled and the juices drained. After a period of cold settling, the clarified juices are racked, warmed, inoculated with neutral yeasts and vinified at cool temperatures. After completion, the parcels are assembled and filtered, stabilised and bottled. Handling of the wine is kept to a minimum throughout all stages of the vinification to capture and retain the inimitable fruit characters of Hunter Valley Semillon.
Light straw yellow with an olive hue. Aromatic and clean, with hay and citrus characters, macadamia and tangelo, marmalade and toast. A fine mineral palate with light tropical acids and developed fruit characters, apple/ nut flan, key lime and slate. In fine balance, whilst already showing the benefits of a few years under glass, will continue to develop superbly.
