"Wonderfully fruited and fragrant, the bouquet shows golden peach, rockmelon, vanilla and cedar characters, leading to a succulent palate that is fleshy and rounded. The wine offers terrific fruit intensity together with stylish oak nuances, backed by bright acidity and creamy mouthfeel. Delectable and highly enjoyable. At its best: now to 2022" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Feb 2019

A delicate, pale straw green colour in the glass. Exhibits a very strong combination of Mendoza Chardonnay fruit, complex toasty oak and yeast lees along with subtle malolactic fermentation aromas. A full-flavoured Chardonnay delivering clear varietal flavours supported by a fullness and creaminess derived from extended time on yeast lees in barrel. Full malolactic fermentation has helped to soften the wine and add complexity of flavour that is supported by a smoky oak background from the barrel-aging.

Food Pairing: Perfect with seafood with rich cream-based sauces or roast chicken. For a speciality cheese match try Parmesan, Aged Cheddar or Aged Gouda.

Alc: 13.5% - RRP $35

"Bright, moderately rich red with berry, plum, chocolate/mocha, liquorice and spicy oak flavours. A smooth-textured and quite complex red that's good drinking now but should develop nicely with further bottle age" Bob Campbell, Master of Wine, Real Review, Jun 2019

A deep garnet red colour in the glass. Ripe aromatics of plums and dark fruits with a smoky, oaky tannin complexity. The Merlot, that dominates the blend, contributes a plumminess to the fruit spectrum while hand-crafting using French oak has added palate and aromatic complexity. The palate is richly textured and finishes with great length of fine, structural tannins that are a hallmark of the sub-region.

Food Pairing: This wine can be enjoyed with an extraordinary variety of dishes but is best suited to full-flavoured food such as braised lamb shanks or slightly charred barbecued beef.
