APPEARANCE: Beautifully intense purple colour with aromatics that jump out of the glass. AROMA: Pure fruited aromas of redcurrant and cinnamon follow through on to the palate with fresh acidity keeping the wine lively and vibrant. PALATE: A small percentage of whole bunch fermentation in the wine adds a savoury element and herbal notes. The Welkin Grenache is a light bodied wine that works very well in an aperitivo setting.

Hand-harvesting, fruit sorting and intuitive winemaking delivers small-parcel wines with clarity, purity, great texture and flavour expression. ANDREW (SANDY) OATLEY

No, not Pinot Noir from d'Arenberg's home town of McLaren Vale, but an exquisite smelling, plush-feeling Pinot from the cool Adelaide Hills. Not really 'feral' either - rather a pure, varietal Pinot Noir with spicy complexities and a welcome firm tannin structure adding to the 'this is serious stuff' impression that this wine leaves in your mouth.

One of the very few examples of Carignan produced in Australia. This is the first release of this wine from Hither & Yon and it's really approachable already.Bright purple in the glass. Perfumed nose of black cherry, plum and black pepper. Light to medium weight with a fresh core of fleshy black fruits and tart red berries with good balance of acid and tannin crunch. An excellent young-drinker.

Old vines & sandy soil deliver a beautifully balanced Grenache with cherry blossom aromas, fresh berry palate and a long smooth finish

Let the good times roll with this cracking McLaren Vale Grenache.
