Lethbridge Mietta Pinot Noir
From vines yielding less than 1 tonne/acre, 100% whole bunch, natural yeast ferment, 100% new oak. A powerful and structural Pinot Noir by Lethbridge. An unusual presentation of the MV6 clone in the Estate vineyard produces fruit of great density of flavour, and very low yield (0.5 tonnes/acre). This wine was fermented with 100% whole bunch inclusion and had pre-fermentation maceration for 7-10 days. Wild yeast fermentation in small open vats proceeded with daily pigéage. Pressing was straight to barrel (100% new French oak) to allow for gross lees contact and natural MLF.
Nanny Goat Super Nanny Pinot Noir
The palate is rich and mouth filling, with up front fruit sweetness balanced by a fine juicy acidity. Notes of dark berry fruits, exotic spice and toast fill the mid palate framed by fine chalky tannins before finishing with lingering suggestions of earth and mushrooms. Alan Peters Oswald, Winemaker, Nanny Goat - Curiosity drives Alan Peters-Oswald to try something new, interesting and different just to see what the outcome is. He lets each individual parcel of fruit shine in its own right, and also believes that by combining a number of unique parcels in a larger blend you can produce a wine that is multi-faceted, interesting and evolves in the glass, creating a true sensory experience. Alans wines reflect his personality, in that theyre not flashy but are quietly confident. Give them time in the glass and youll be rewarded with a wine that is interesting and multi-layered. Just like him.
Yarra Yering Underhill Shiraz
Yarra Yering is not only a Victorian icon, but a true Australian wine treasure. The Underhill Shiraz is sourced exclusively from the 1974 planted block of Shiraz at the western-most extremity of the vineyard. Drawn from soils with a higher clay base which has resulted in a wine of a more masculine bent offering darker fruits and spice with chewier tannins and a savoury undertone.
Giant Steps Bastard Hill Pinot Noir
A light, very bright crimson. Smells like a rose garden with a little lavender thrown in! You'll also find aromas of sour cherries and blood oranges. Poised, elegant and persistent, this flows mellifluously across the palate
Jane Eyre Mornington Pinot Noir
As well as having established herself firmly in Burgundy, having been named Winemaker of the Year by Frances top wine magazine, Jane Eyre also makes small parcels of top-sited pinots here in Australia. The emphasis is always on fragrance and elegance in these excellent wines.
Levantine Hill Syrah
Levantine Hill Syrah has lifted complex aromas of dusty red berries, musk, cardamom and white pepper and vanillin oak. The elegant medium-bodied palate abounds with spice and earthy nuances in a concentration of savouriness. The silky ripe tannins have been deftly integrated with the underlying oak providing carriage for the fruit weight and lingering flavours to a pronounced and persistent finish.

Rob Dolan Sig Pinot Noir
Bannockburn Pinot Noir
Bannockburn is spicy with well intergraded savoury oak and great acidity backbone. The varietal flavours such as, raspberries, strawberries and red cherries fruits lingers with a faint hint of forest floor on the palate with well supporting tannins. A greatly composed wine, this is undoubtedly pushing the setting of this country's benchmark for Pinot Noir to another level.
Yarra Yering Agincourt
The combination of Cabernet and Malbec gives this wine the traditional Cabernet notes, but loaded with blue fruits (blueberryies, plums). Elegant and restrained, with a soft lingering finish.
