The 2019 vintage of our Grenache is now available. A very dry year with super low yields from the Doecke Eden Valley vineyard. We topped up with a little Grenache from the organic and biodynamic farmed Ahrens vineyard at Vine Vale. Grapes were picked on March 6th, the same as in 2018. As with other […]
The 2018 vintage of our Grenache is now available. Picked March 6th this year and the fruit looked fantastic. As with other years the grapes were hand picked and hand sorted through the crusher/ destemmer with some bunches left whole to add some structure and complexity. The natural yeasts were then left to do their […]

It is produced in small parcels with each bottling showing slightly different characteristics depending on the provenence of the base honey. This Batch N002 is a gently sparkling, bone dry style. The only additions were pure water, fermentation was with wild yeasts […]

Made from fruit sourced from the Vine Vale subregion of the Barossa Valley. This wine reflects the characters of the Solodized Solodnetz soil series in which it was grown. An elegant, spicy nose with developed, ripe, juniper berry characters and firm grainy tannins in the mouth. Very much a food orientated style, maturation in seasoned oak has […]

This traditional blend is well suited to our style of winemaking. 2011 vintage has elevated the spicy Sechuan pepper character of the Mataro portion of the blend to a prominent role. Grenache fruit […]
We picked the Tempranillo quite early to capture some sour red cherry/ cranberry characters which in my mind are the perfect foil for some lovely old bush vine Garnacha. Monastrell, Bastardo and Tinta Amerilla fill out the back palate but the main focus of this wine is juicy red fruits and bright flavours. Barossa Pinot […]
As our Cinsault plantings bear fruit it is a pleasure to be exploring the potential of this variety to counter the effects of climate change. Blending with some lovely whole bunch fermented Shiraz has brought a roundness and darker fruit aspect without diminishing the vibrancy of the wine. There is a buzz around the concept […]
This pale dry rose is made from cinsault, grenache and mataro from our Vine Vale vineyard in the Barossa Valley . The grapes were foot stomped into the bins while hand harvesting, left on skins overnight then drained to tank for wild yeast fermentation and spontanous malo. Bottling with lees and without stabilisation gives a […]
