HUNTER VALLEY, AUSTRALIA
If there is one place in Australian wine that is hewn of absolute toil and adversity it is the Hunter Valley. The wine history is the oldest in this country and the environment has had a profound influence on the vignerons and wine styles, resulting in a distinct sense of Terrior. While we are old in wine, we are young in the deeper history of this land, and we pay our respects to the Wonnarua people who have nurtured this country as it's custodians for countless millenia. If our humble assay can give it another voice to the stratified story of this land, my hope is to only make it richer.

Ripe grapefruit, quince and brown lime sit against subtle funky complexity showing as nougat and brioche. The oak influence is indistinguishable from the yeast derived complexity. Abundant texture is tempered by limey acidity giving way to a generous finish with layers of nutty citrus complexity. A seemingly endless line of flavour persistence
