Sauvignon Blanc Fumé

Vintage 2023

This wine is a balance of freshness and complexity. The nose bursts with spicy-sweet clove, guava and tropical fruits, with a violet floral intensity and ripe peaches complemented by strong natural acidity. The palate is soft and textural, with a medium body and long, refreshing acidity. Gentle oak toast lingers on the finish, with undertones of lemon myrtle and ripe lime adding zest, while a framing of sweet oak adds complexity and depth. Allow this wine to breathe for full expression. Best paired with spicy foods or creamy pasta for a harmonious pairing.

Sangiovese

Vintage 2023

This estate-grown Sangiovese displays a pale ruby colour. The concentrated aromas of sweet red and dark fruits transition smoothly from nose to palate, with ripe Amarena cherries, raspberries and strawberries taking centre focus. A subtle spice undertone of cardamom, white pepper and coriander seeds adds complexity to the back palate. The wine’s high concentration unfolds from the front to mid-palate, leading into firm yet fine tannins.

Cabernet Sauvignon - Merlot

Vintage 2022

This wine is a bold yet refined expression of its varietal blend. Rum and raisin meet the nose, blending with anise and bay leaf. The dark, wild berry aromas and hints of cigar box provide depth and intrigue while the gravelly tannins offer a structure that softens as the palate unfolds, with rum spice lingering on the finish. The wine is softer than the nose suggests, with supple tannins creating an approachable wine. Subtle black licorice and peppercorns complement the ripe plum and blackcurrant flavours.

Merlot

Vintage 2022

On the nose, dark raspberries, cranberries and chocolate oranges invite you in, mingling with coffee bean oak and red licorice. The scent is enhanced by rosemary and a minty herbal mix. A hint of spice emerges on the mid-palate, with flavours of black mulberry and cardamom rounding out the experience. The wine presents a medium to long finish that melts away with finesse and a subtle, chalky tannin texture.

Fragolino 2024

Vintage 2024

In Italian Fragolino means little strawberry. This unique wine exudes a beautiful sweet, confectioned strawberry perfume with hints of Turkish delight and strawberries and cream. The high residual sugar gives the wine texture and richness across the palate. A perfect late harvest wine to be enjoyed after dinner, with dessert pastries or a cheese board.
