Briar Ridge Block 7 Chardonnay
This wine displays aromatic mineral slate and stone alongside white peach and nectarine. The palate is taut and driven with linear fresh acidity and persistent concentrated orchard fruits. Situated at our high altitude estate vineyard in Orange, 'Block 7' is 800m above sea level, ensuring a long cool ripening season perfectly suited to Chardonnay. The topography and soils of the Orange region are dominated by the extinct volcano Mt. Canobolas. The basaltic lavas of the old volcano have created soils that primarily consist of deep red to brown free-draining clay loams.
Byrne Farm Syrah
Roberto Sarotto "Srej" Langhe Arneis
"Obtained from carefully selected grapes, this wine represents the maximum expression of the potential that Langhe Arneis can reach. The word “Srej” comes from the Piedmontese dialect and means “oak forest”, the name by which the vineyard on the hill in front of the winery is traditionally known. It is distinguished by its enveloping aroma that evokes the harmony of freshly picked tropical fruits, with notes of pineapple, mango and papaya. It is the ideal companion for fish dishes, egg pasta with delicate fillings, white meats and medium-aged cheeses."

Great clarity and vibrancy in this wine. Ripe cherries, strawberries on the nose and with a dry savoury finish.
Grosset Springvale Riesling
Grosset Springvale Riesling from the Clare Valley sub-region of Watervale, takes its name from the Springvale Road vineyard located in the highest part of Watervale. Jeff Grosset's six hectare vineyard produces a wine full of ethereal aromatics, fragrant lemongrass and freshly squeezed lime. Pure lemon flavours over wet pebbles show on the palate that is accented by the wonderful minerality that is the signature of Grosset.

Intense yet elegant. A clean, precise and powerful expression of dark berry fruits, fine tannins and intergrated oak.

It is perfectly suited to fresh Tasmanian seafood and spicy Asian cuisine.
