Judged as number 1 in the Adelaide Review’s Hot 100 South Australian Wines for 2013.

Like visiting an old friend’s cottage,  where you let yourself in, hang your jacket, dust off your pants and sit down to a warming plate of stew by the fireside. So much to give. Satin-textured with savoury elements make it compelling. The wine blossoms unfolding lively, poised and graceful wafts of fresh red fruits, bitters and Campari and finishes with long herbal tones to keep your finger tapping on the table for more. With a resounding sense of homeliness and comfort, suppleness plays its hand. This is the ultimate experience in drinkability.

Lifted, lemon talc and a touch of sea spray; all flavours are nicely interwoven with a sense of seriousness but with a joyous sweetness of fruit and a shy depth of halva, yeast-derived complexity. Then the fizz – vibrant and coursing across the palate, ultimately refreshing and titillating.

There’s timelessness to this wine. A sepia-toned call to wines of yesteryear. A curve of ripe fruit showing vitality of blueberry and rose hip with a subtle integration of both bitter and sweet. Smoky oak gives stasis and yet a comely lean of nougat and lathed pinewood.
