After hand picking, destemmed prior to fermentation in open top fermenters for 8 days, gently pumped over by hand twice a day. The resulting wine was matured for 24 months in new (30%) and seasoned French oak hogsheads prior to careful racking and blending. A further two years in bottle has allowed the wine to develop further complexity. -

A balmy vintage in 2022 led to perfect growing conditions for Eden Valley Riesling with high quality fruit. Fermented slightly cooler than its drier cousin, the longer ferment allowed for maximum expression of character. The ferment was stopped with 45g of residual sugar when the wine was at its floral best with citrus driven acidity bringing balance to the richness of the palate. The vintage conditions lent themselves well to high quality, expressive white wines in 2022 and this is no exception.Tasting Notes
Lemon sherbet, citrus blossom and candied ginger immediately jump out of the glass. The generosity of the palate is highlighted by white fleshed stone fruit and honied florals, finishing crisply with juicy acidity – the perfect foil to any lingering sweetness. Ideal with something spicy or to accompany that Sunday afternoon cheeseboard. Download Full Tasting Note -
After hand-picking, grapes were destemmed prior to fermentation in open top vessels and carefully managed through twice daily pump overs. After pressing, the wines were allowed to mature in a mix of new (30%) and seasoned French oak barriques prior to blending. Further time in bottle has allowed the wine to develop greater depth and complexity that will only continue as time goes on.Tasting Notes
Perfumed and varietal with classic Cabernet aromas of cassis, dark-berried fruit and plum. Time in glass has afforded the wine further complexity with overtones of clove, anise and tobacco leaf that creates an intriguing array of aromas that carry well onto the palate. Wholesome and generous, this is a classic Eden Valley Cabernet with fine structural tannins driving a long and savoury finish. Download Full Tasting NoteReviews
"Concentrated and intense, this is saturated – positively dripping – with flavour. Blueberries, fresh soft licorice, poached raspberries and fennel flower compose the core, while exotic spice and resinous oak frame the picture. The carriage of flavour across the palate hints at the quality of fruit that goes into it. The memory of it lingers long after the wine is gone." 94 Points. Erin Larkin, 2023 Wine Companion. -

A balmy vintage in 2022 led to perfect growing conditions for Eden Valley Riesling with high quality fruit resulting in a classic Hutton Vale wine. Fermented cool over a 14-day period in stainless steel, the resulting wine jumps out of the glass with vitality.Tasting Notes
Zesty and driven, the fresh citrus fruit is lifted by perfumed delicate florals and struck flint. A zip of acidity on the palate balances well the generosity of fruit, with a long and textured finish. Drink cold on a hot day for maximum refreshment or, if you have the patience, squirrel a few away to be rewarded over the next 5-10 years. Download Full Tasting Note -
A long and cool spring with good rainfall and mild summer conditions meant that the fruit for this wine was picked a few weeks later than normal. An early morning harvest had the fruit delivered to the winery in pristine the condition. After pressing, the Riesling juice was fermented cool in stainless steel for 21 days to retain freshness and aromatic intensity in the finished wine. Download Full Tasting Note -
Hand picked and gently destemmed, the varieties grow together in the vineyard and ferment together in open fermenters for 7 days while being pumped over twice daily by hand. They then mature together for 24 months in 20% new French and 80% seasoned puncheons. Our best estimate is 85% Grenache, 15% Mataro.Tasting Notes
Layered notes of cherry, raspberry compote, dark chocolate, and dried spice. The Grenache sings through on the palate with red and dark berry fruits backed by the earthy savory finish that only Mataro can provide. A medium bodied Grenache wine with plenty of fine structural tannins that finishes long. The wine has sufficient structure to reward patient cellaring for at least a decade. Delicious paired with great salumi. Download Full Tasting NoteReviews
"The mataro is so pronounced here – it gives off an earthy, almost minty aroma of mulberries and licorice root. The palate is where the grenache shines, it is redolent of raspberry and dustings of raw cocoa. There is a lot of pleasure here." 94 Points. Erin Larkin, 2023 Wine Companion -
A long and cool spring with good rainfall and mild summer conditions meant that the fruit for this wine was picked a few weeks later than normal. After a cool fermentation in stainless steel for 14 days the wine was chilled in order to stop the ferment, hence leaving around 30g/L residual sugar. This sweetness brings richness to the palate but paired with the lovely natural acidity the wine is balanced and shows amazing floral and citrus characters. Download Full Tasting Note

The delicious 2011 back vintage Riesling shows the joy of cellaring. A rich and developed flavour that goes so well with yabbies, crayfish, and prawns. If you are a fan of old Rieslings, this will not disappoint. 3 bottle limit. -
This wine has 21 years of age and has been carefully cellared. It is not a syrupy disappointment but a well-structured wine that has amazed us in its longevity, so much so, we sought an independent opinion. His response was “No need for a complaints department on this, this wine is amazing and a testament to how good the fruit is. It still has years ahead of it.” ………………Thanks Mark! 2002 was the year of unreliable corks imported into Australia. These 6 packs are going out for the price of 4 in case a cork lets us down, all six may be perfect, we just don’t know, until you open it.
