| Seasons Greetings! | ||
| We would like to thank our customers from all over Australia who have continued to support us throughout the year. As a small winery, making quality wine for over 40 years, your ongoing support is very much appreciated. | ||
| The glittering prizes – Gold! Silver! Silver! | ||
| Small Winemakers National Event 2018 - kindly permit us to preen a little! | ||
| 2017 GSM McLaren Vale awarded GOLD Grenache 43%, Shiraz 43%, Mourvèdre 14% - interesting flavours and very drinkable wine. Grenache blends were particularly good…(also Bronze at WineWise National Awards) | ||
| 2018 Pinot Gris Adelaide Hills BINGO a Silver medal! Only our second Pinot Gris and Pear and apple flavours, some say. But whatever flavours you detect, a great mid-spectrum white to drink with almost anything | ||
| 2016 Pinot Noir Adelaide Hills - Silver medal! A robust wine with lots of Pinot character – very much the style of Pinot coming from the Hills and making their reputation as a premier region for the wine. (also Bronze at WineWise National Awards) | ||
| 2018 Riesling Clare Valley, Watervale - Bronze! Fresh, crisp with citrus and mineral flavours and pale pale straw colour now, it will turn to a lovely gold as it matures. | ||

2018 Riesling - Now available | |
| Clare Valley – Watervale | ||
|
The Rieslings have been consistently winning awards ever since we started getting the grapes from the Honey’s Watervale vineyard in 2012. Watervale in the Clare Valley is known as the top locality in the top region for Rieslings – taste this one to find out why. Citrus/mineral characters. Another top Riesling. No medals yet? Be patient, will ya – it’s only just in the bottle! |

2018 Pinot Gris - Now available | |

We made one already, you liked it a lot – well, you bought loads, so presumably you liked it. Winemaker Damo is impressed with 2018 vintage.

|
2018 Rosé - Now available | |
| McLaren Vale | ||

Grenache ?, Shiraz ? We never know the blend until the last minute when winemaker Damo decides. But we anticipate mostly Grenache, light in colour, dry and drinkable. |
