2012 Winter Sale

In March this year, we became the sole tenants in the winery. As part of the massive clean up we are having a HUGE wine sale.

The wines will be a combination of wines we have made over the years that we will never get around to drinking. Some are cleanskin while others are under second labels.

Prices start at $80 per dozen. Cases won’t be mixed or broken down.

This year we have increased our involvement with the Riesling vineyard in Strathbogie Ranges with the imminent planting of Gruner Veltliner.

And the vineyard has never looked better. We are eagerly watching the events of this difficult season unfold with confidence that our riesling site is going to produce the goods.

As part of our cellar door in Collingwood (melbourne) we are hosting a masterclass to showcase the new 2010 chardonnay and pinots. Plus a surprise new wine – our 2008 blanc de blanc.
