Our Wines

Our wines are shown below. The 2008 "Short Story" whites are now available with the Waverider Semillon Sauvignon Blanc, Mudlarks Sauvignon Blanc and Pickled Fairies Verdelho all looking exceptionally good and potential medal winners. Also available is our 2007 "Full Story" range Chardonnay. This is our first fully wooded Chardonnay and represents a change in style and direction from its partially oaked predecessors. Two "Short Story" reds are available. We still have left a small quantity of our outstanding 05 Smiling Dogs Shiraz Viogner and have just released the 06 Rockpool Red Cabernet Merlot which, although young is very approachable and distinctly Margaret River. The premium reds in our "Full Story" range continue to impress with the 04 Shiraz Grenache Mouvedre and 04 Cabernet Merlot Petit Verdot and 05 Zinfandel available and drinking beautifully.

The Full Story Range

2007 Chardonnay

The 2007 vintage was unusually warm and early. As a result the Chardonnay is in the riper flavour spectrum displaying an aroma of ripe peach, stone fruit and orange rind with a slight apricot and biscuity note. It is a big ripe style of wine with lots of ripe peach and fig flavours. The palate is viscous and toasty with some creamy flavours and subtle oak. It is rich and textural with crisp acidity and a long slightly honeyed aftertaste.


Order



2004 Shiraz Grenache Mouvedre (SGM)

The Shiraz, Grenache and Mouvedre grapes in this wine were co-fermented to produce the spicy characters distinctive of this blend. In the glass the wine is ruby red with deep purple hightlights. The palate is a mouth-filling explosion of summer berries, mixed herbs and 'Chinese Five Spice'. The wine will gain complexity over the next 3 - 5 years, but its soft tannins enable it to be enjoyed when young.

2005 "Valmai" Zinfandel

The Zinfandel displays the dried mixed fruit and “Christmas Cake” characters    typical of the variety. The wine is deep crimson with purple highlights. The aroma suggests a rich fruit mince pie filling with a hint of perfumed dried fruits. The nose is complimented by a warm palate of stewed summer fruits with a lingering dark chocolate and sweet liquorice finish.

This wine was made from estate grown Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot grapes. The wine has a deep purple colour with bright crimson hues and aromas of mixed berries and black cherries.
