Wine Name:

Chardonnay 2008

Wine Description:

 

This Chardonnay is the second vintage from our Organic Vineyard. A golden colour, big rich and complex.

Comments: This is a bit out there but I do like the yeast lees influence which produces a smoky flinty mineral character. Plenty of tropical fruit flavours here.

Cellar potential – Drink now up to 2012 years.

Food - anything you choose. Its a foodies wine. Also available at Rottnest Island Store and Passion Foods in South Melbourne.



Wine Name:

Grape Pickers Reserve 2008 - Chenin Blanc

Wine Description:

 

 

This is made from our certified organic Chenin Blanc.  If you think organic wines lacks flavour and complexity, think again. This is a BIG flavoured wine. I can see Jack Mann smiling now!

The Grape Picker’s Reserve is a full-bodied Chenin Blanc from our non–irrigated vineyard. The wine is dry because of its natural wine making methods - the ferment is not stopped by means of refrigeration, so no residual sugar remains.  The rich colour is a result of the wine having been left on its skins for a short time (which extracts not only more character and flavour but also colour from high quality fruit).  The wine was matured in oak for several months before bottling and this adds some nice smoky savoury influence as well. Good drinking now with further bottle development until 2015.

Comments: Hand picked Chenin Blanc with a touch of Muscadelle.

Golden Colour. Aromas of ripe pineapple and stone fruit. A rich, sweet, rounded palate with fresh acidity holding the developed fruit together. Appealing honeyed texture intertwined with subtle, caramel oak toast. Satisfying drink now proposition, and also the long term.

Food - with a few nibbles on a summer day or with dinner.

Also available at Rottnest Island Store
