Shiraz, Viognier

Mooka’s Block is father-in-laws vineyard situated next door to our ‘home block’. It consistently produces low yield premium Shiraz with structural, savory concentrated fruit rich in dark berry fruits.

Riesling

Eden Valley is recognized as one of Australia’s premium areas for Riesling, is a cool climate region nestled between 400 and 600 metres in the Barossa Range, and is part of the Mount Lofty Ranges.

Cool with medium rainfall and warm to hot summers, however, as it lies in a secluded valley and consequently ripens much later than surrounding areas. This vineyard produces Rieslings with pristine quality reflected in their minerality, citrus fruit & spiciness, holding great finesse particularly as they age.

Shiraz

The Grampians wine region is one of Australia’s most historical and acclaimed cool climate wine regions renowned for their ageability. Shiraz is the region’s signature variety, typically displaying dense purple colour with attractive pepper spice and plum characters on the nose and palate.

Great Western is well known for wines of elegance, structure and longevity with silky tannins and dark black fruits that develop to savoury, earthy characters with age. The vineyard generally has minimal rainfall & long sunlight hours, providing wines of great austerity & restraint.
