Phillip Shaw has a long and distinguished history in Australian wine, but has had his dream and vision realised in the form of the Koomooloo property in Orange, NSW. With particular attention paid to the selection of the very best sites and the fruit that best suits these vineyards, wine like this No. 19 Sauvignon Blanc can be created. This Sauv is a wonderful rich, old world style wine that is perfectly partnered with many foods including hearty seafood dishes.

Glowing green gold in colour, Carillion The Crystals Chardonnay displays aromas of lean fig and pineapple with a subtle layer of grilled cashew. Lean mineral complexity leads into fresh lime and grapefruit held up with hints of vanilla from quality French oak. Perfect for a summer picnic.

Printhie Sauvignon Blanc is like passionfruit sorbet., wonderfully clean and precise. Has all the drive and intensity of the very best Marlborough Savvy but with added complexity and interest. Get in on the ground floor with this region and it's aromatic white as it is going places in a hurry.

Established in 1996, Printhie has quickly garnered a repuation for quality cool climate wines, even picking up a 5 star rating from James Halliday. Pinot Gris is well suited here with luscious honeysuckle flavours balanced with bracing acidity. Textural mouthfeel adds to the mix of what is a wine to keep an eye on!

A fresh and tropical fruit driven Sauvignon Blanc from a vineyard perched 930 metres above in Orange, NSW. Lemons, passion fruit, touches of grapefruit plus a faint lick of lychee. Seven days on skins has added some texture through the mid-palate. Crisp to finish, a good drink all up.

Shiraz from Orange is quite unique in style compared to most other regions in Australia and is more reminiscent of the Northern Rhone, France.

Bright full fruit flavours in a medium-bodied package; classic cool area shiraz some spice integrated with red fruits; lovely soft tannins and finish.
