Mercer Wines Sangiovese
Wild strawberry, red plum and cherry crumble lead the way, with a flicker of tomato leaf and dried herbs in the background. Light-bodied with a bright ruby hue, it’s supple, savory and refreshingly dry. Chillable.
Printhie Topography Cabernet Sauvignon
Cabernet should taste like Cabernet and this is a lovely varietal expression of ripe Cabernet – blackcurrant, redskin, a hint of leafiness and chocolaty oak.

Printhie has four vineyard sites that have been created to meet varietal needs ensuring quality fruit production. Each location has been carefully selected to encapsulate the terroir of the Orange cool climate region.

Mid crimson purple with a crimson garnet glow. Intense red and purple berries with a leafy lift reminiscent of French pastille lollies. Raspberries, blueberries, and boysenberry compote adding an even deeper layer of fruit. Soft, full, and round entry with more berries and a subtle toasty oak background over juicy tannins and supple acidity. Fresh bright and very approachable.

Fromm La Strada Pinot Noir
Fromm's passion for Pinot Noir is reflected in the attention to detail shown in the vineyard and throughout the winemaking process. Carefully selected clones and rootstocks, together with intensive vineyard care and low cropping, means the vines produce fruit that illustrates the terroir in which they were grown. Today in the Fromm stable of vineyards there are eleven clones, 4000 - 5000 vines per hectare, with crop levels around five to six tonnes per hectare. The blend which makes up each years La Strada Pinot Noir by Fromm depends on what nature has given in each of their vineyards. Invariably, the wine is strongly varietal, fruity and has immediate appeal.

Great clarity and vibrancy in this wine. Ripe cherries, strawberries on the nose and with a dry savoury finish.
Riposte The Sabre Pinot Noir
The cool-climate of the Adelaide Hills has proven to be a haven for Pinot Noir and is quickly establishing a reputation akin to the benchmark Australian regions. Tim Knappstein from Riposte harnesses the qualities of the region and the varietal with effortless ease with his The Sabre. Bright colour in the glass is followed by a lifted floral nose with a savoury edge. The palate is fresh, clean and superbly powerful. A delight.
