A wine of great intensity and elegance ... lime, grapefruit and freshly cut pear ... crisp acidity and a fine elegant tannin structure...
Ray Jordan, WA Wine Guide 2013: "Beautiful spicy Riesling from Frankland River. Has a fine spine of fine delicate acid and tight minerality while the palate has a precise intensity. It's long and fine in the mouth with that spicy fruit intensity building along the way. Excellent wine. 93/100"
A "Fume Blanc" style, sophisticated and food friendly.
Our style is based on the sauvignon blanc styles made in the French region of Graves, near Bordeaux, and in the region of Styria, in the south west of Austria ... 25% barrel fermented, 12 months on yeast lees ...
Flavours of white peach, freshly cut pear, grapefruit and lemongrass, ... soft generous and refined ...
Huon Hooke, Gourmet Wine Magazine Feb/Mar 2013: "Barrel fermentation adds toasty nut and balsamic nuances, while the palate is rich, medium to full bodied, round and fleshy"
It can be a difficult varietal name to pronounce correctly, we say vee-on-e-ay, and without a french accent it probably doesn't sound too sophisticated, but this wine is certainly something special and definitely worth a try.
An opulent wine ... wild yeast ferment ... extended maturation on yeast lees in barrels ... fresh apricot, ginger, musk, white peach and pear ... Try something different ...
If you like thai or vietnamese dishes, indian curries, and rich flavoured dishes, and need a wine that matches, then this is the wine for you!
James Halliday, Wine Companion Tasting Notes October 2010: "Fuller mouthfeel which should be a first requirement for viognier ... also dried peach and apricot flavours, all achieved without any oily phenolic characters. Rated: 90. Drink 2012

The 2010 wine has just been released ... with reviews pending
A rich and intense wine with blackberries and blueberries ... dark chocolate ... hints of black pepper and sweet spices ... soft velvety tannins ... refined yet powerful
Ray Jordan, WA Wine Guide 2013:"This is an intense and lush wine displaying softness and intensity. Rich dark fruits showing plum and blueberry flavours with a sprinkling of savoury oak. Excellent fine ripe tannin structure and a very long finish. Excellent wine. 94/100"
