Summerfield yield to the demands of the fruit, extractions are optimised, the oak maturation is designed to enunciate the terroir while framing the excellence of fruit.
Summerfield Reserve Shiraz
Pyrenees
Available in cases of 6
Originally planted to Shiraz in the 1970s, Summerfield vineyard borders Taltarni. The earliest harvests were actually sold to them, along with the illustrious houses of Great Western and Chateau Remy, now known as Seppelt and Blue Pyrenees. This is the style of Shiraz which placed Victoria's Pyrenees on the world wine map. The palate fills with winegum tannins, dark brooding fruits, plums, berries and spice, finishing with incredible length. No other appellation makes such majestic Shiraz, this is what Summerfield's old vines are all about, it only gets better from here.

Generations of Summerfields struggled against the arduous terrains and challenging climes at Moonambel along Stawell-Avoca Road. They ventured into viticulture in the 1970s planting ten acres of predominantly Shiraz vines, now providing the backbone of fruit for Summerfield Reserve. The estate has continued to make wines in a traditional way. Grapes are all handpicked, treate to an old world open vat fermentation, basket pressed and treated to a luxurious term in the most extravagant new oak.
Super Nanny Goat Pinot Noir
Central Otago
Available in cartons of six
There's very little that comes out of Central Otago which isn't thoroughly spectacular. Super Nanny represents the best of the very best, a very limited release edition, vinified from a parcel or two, hand picked and scrupulously sorted off the most splendid rows on Nanny Goat Vineyard. Whole bunches and cold soaks, hand plunges and a gentle press, a luxuriously high proportion of new oak for malolactic and age. A seductively dark brooding bouquet, savouryness and meat, dutch chocolate underbelly, rhubarb and plum, a taut mineral line over toothsome, gummy tannins.

Tahbilk Eric Stevens Purbrick Cabernet
Nagambie
Available in cases of 6
Crafted from the best of vintage Cabernet Sauvignon, the choicest parcels collated from across the wonderful endowment of Tahbilk vineyards.

Tahbilk remain home to the eldest and most distinguished Cabernet vines. Eric Stevens Purbrick is dressed to impress, intensely flavoured with opaque berry flavours, sheathed in a veneer of graceful oak.

Identifying the right proportions for each wine and assembling the finest parcels are a labour of love for the Taltarni team. The final wine represents flawless balance and impeccable structure while delivering the requisite voluptuousness, richness and full bodied profile that is distinctly Pyrenees. Grapes are harvested to optimal flavour development and balance of ripe tannins. Batches are kept separate, destemmed and crushed to fermenters for vinification on skins over the course of two or three weeks, followed by an old fashioned basket press into a high proportion of new French oak barriques. After completion of malolactic, components are assembled and returned to barrel for eighteen months.
 
Deep brick red colour, darkened robes. Intense blackcurrant bouquets and distinctive Pyrenees mint notes, integrated toasty, mocha and cigar box of oak. A superb balance of fruit freshness, blackberries and spiced plum, cocoa and carob notes over a length of firm but silky tannins which are recognizably Taltarn. A beautifully structured and proportioned wine to accompany grand cuisine.

Tapanappa Foggy Hill Vineyard Pinot Noir
Fleurieu
Available by the dozen
Brian Croser established vines on a foggy, north facing slope of sandy clay loams at Parawa, very near the extreme south westerly point of Fleurieu Peninsula in 2003. The chilly maritime climes on Maylands Farm are a challenge for the vineyard team but they yield Pinot Noir of extraordinary eloquence and exquisite pastoral richness. A week of hand plunging and warmer ferments are gently air bag pressed into a high proportion of new French oak barriques for ten months maturation. Its voluminous palate unravels layers of complexity before an august, satin finish.

Tapanappa Whalebone Vineyard Cabernet Shiraz
Wrattonbully
Available by the dozen
Tapanappa acquired and renovated the precious Whalebone Vineyard at Wrattonbully in 2002. The thirty year old Shiraz and Cabernet vines have responded magnificently. The paradox is that despite being cooler than Coonawarra, the fruit ripens earlier and more completely. The still air, cool night and warm days particularly suit the rejuvenated vines. The quality of fruit is ideal for a masculine Medoc style, not surprising given the similarity of soil, geology and climate to that of St. Emilion in Bordeaux. By maestro Brian Croser, only a few hundred cases are made.

The precious grapes are hand picked and vinified in separate batches. Grapes are de-stemmed, partially roller crushed and chilled to 2C in one tonnes fermentation tubs. A four day cold maceration precedes fermentation by native yeasts and bacterial strains, hand plunged twice daily to break up the cap of skins. At the peak of vinification, temperatures reach 34C before fermenting to dryness. The wine and skins are sealed down for a further week of maceration before draining and gently pressing into French oak barriques. Upon completion of malolactic, batches are sulphured and racked several times over a period of fifteen months maturation, to be bottled unfiltered after a light egg white fining.
 
Dark garnet/ ruby colour. Intense black currant, dusty herb and spice edge of Cabernet, the anise and blackberry of Shiraz. Intense but refined flavours, the freshness and vibrancy of Cabernet accentuated by the smoky and minty hallmarks of Whalebone terroir. Significant tannin structure before an even, mouth coating savoury finish. To accompany spring lamb or rare pigeon breast with fines herbes.
