The 2020 Garibaldi is a wine we have been contemplating producing for the past 10 years. A 50/50 blend of Nebbiolo and Shiraz made in the difficult year of 2020. The two previous years we had been in drought but this one toppped it of with only a fraction of our normal crop. So enjoy the wine, it is soft and full of fruit from the two countries that Garibaldi loved.

Don’t miss this rare chance to secure a magnificent wine from a top producer that’s in seriously short supply. Made by an acclaimed winemaker at the top of their game, this is a slice of wine history you don’t want to miss. Add it to your collection while you can!

The 2022 Semillon Sauvignon Blanc is a standout expression of Hilltops Semillon, enhanced by a touch of Sauvignon Blanc to elevate its aroma and create a beautifully rounded palate. This vintage yielded exceptionally low tonnages, resulting in intensely concentrated flavours and outstanding quality. The wine is a vibrant, light-bodied dry white with a comparatively low alcohol content, showcasing Semillon’s distinctive lemongrass-like character and a refreshing, crisp acidity. Enjoy its lively freshness now or cellar for up to five years to further appreciate the essence of Grove Estate’s terroir.

The 2022 Chardonnay is a true reflection of the cool Hilltops vintage, where lower temperatures have delivered vibrant acidity and exceptional balance. This natural acidity enhances the wine’s fruit sweetness, creating a beautifully complete and harmonious palate. Aged in new French puncheons, it carries subtle oak tannins and delicate oak-derived flavours that add depth and elegance. While delightful to enjoy now, this Chardonnay also has the structure to age gracefully for many years to come.

In the glass: Full deep red. On the nose: Delicate redcurrant, plum, cedar and a light leafy lift. On the palate: Textured with a medium weight core of dark fruit, elegant line and touches of coffee, cherry and savoury oak.
