Ballinaclash is a small pick-your-own orchard, vineyard and cellar door, owned and run by Peter & Cath Mullany and their six children. It is situated near Young, in the Hilltops cool-climate region of New South Wales. Ballinaclash prides itself in growing the best possible fruit for its customers, and producing boutique style products and single vineyard wines made exclusively from their fruit.

Supple and softly spiced, with a plush core of dark fruit. Dark plums, rasberries, faint eucalypt and red earth. The magical matrix of generosity and structurethat defines great Clare Shiraz. Really lovely momentum across the palate and beautifully buffed tannins.

PALATE: Extroverted Grenanche is supported by peppery Syrah and brooding Mourvèdre.

The Smidge St Brioc Fiano 2022 is a shining example of South Australian winemaking at its finest. This vintage from Smidge Wines is a true standout, with a pale straw colour that glistens in the glass. On the nose, aromas of ripe peach, apricot, and lemon zest mingle with subtle hints of white flowers and a touch of minerality. On the palate, the wine is crisp and refreshing, with zesty citrus flavours balanced by a creamy texture and a touch of salinity. The finish is long and satisfying, leaving a lingering impression of juicy stone fruits. This Fiano is a true expression of its terroir, showcasing the unique characteristics of South Australia. Enjoy it now or cellar for a few years to watch it evolve into an even more complex and delightful wine.
