Aromatics of freshly cut pineapple and pink grapefruit notes, the palate shows subtle creamy notes and texture with refined minerality.

Wither Hills Sauvignon Blanc is amongst the very best examples of the famous Marlborough style. Always a standout, the Wither Hills is lively on the palate with herbal gooseberry and lemon-grass flavours. A definite leader of the pack.

A Growers Touch pays homage to the farmers responsible for the Mino & Co. grapes, with their hands appearing on the front and back of the appropriate bottles.Fresh straw with green freshness. Alluring and complex aromas of gooseberry with spicy hints of lanolin and pine needle. Long, spice-driven expression with satiny umami, layers of white pear and gooseberry, creamy texture and a nutty finish.

Kevin McCarthy re-wrote the pinot grigio rules. Pioneering the planting of the unknown (at the time) Italian grape variety in Victoria’s cool climate in the 1980s saw the variety boom. Now mainstream, here is another progressive take by Kevin. Zippy and bright, enjoy effortless tones of lemon, pear and honey, metered by a subtle saline edge.

The Cabernet brings succulent blackberry and plum to the glass, all enriched by toasty, supple oak tannins. Aromas of dark cherry, blackcurrant and plum layered with toasty oak. The palate is rich in dark berry, varietal flavours balanced by oak and velvety tannins. Pairs perfectly to grilled steak with black peppercorn sauce and fat chips.

This attractive Sauvignon Blanc is pale lemon in colour with aromas of ripe tropical fruit and freshly cut grass. The palate displays racy acidity with great intensity of fruit flavour and a long persistent finish.

Bottled early to retain the fresh fruit characters this wine is from the Murray Darling region in Victoria. The lively passionfruit and gooseberry flavours captured in the wine suit a prawn and rocket pasta perfectly.

Brilliant very pale straw colour with a watery hue. Blossoming out of the glass with ample intensity are aromatics of pear, red apple and honeysuckle followed by a whiff of musk. Delicious pear and apple fruits have a fleshy textural feel with subtle honeysuckle, light musk and spice in the background. Finishes dry with crisp acidity and a long well rounded aftertaste. Fantastic value. Drink now. Alc. 12.5%

A well priced Chardonnay offering great value. Softly toasted oak with tropical hints of white peach and lively citrus followed by vibrant stone fruits with a hint of buttery toast and lemon curd on the palate. Pair with Pork tenderloin with an apple cider reduction, or a Caesar salad with grilled chicken and shaved parmesan.
