Wirra Wirra patriarch Greg Trott venerated cricket as the most noble of pursuits. He even built his very own concrete pitch at the family farm to emulate his heroes. Trotty aspired to wearing the famous baggy green cap of the national team, even if only to carry the drinks as twelfth man. It's a certainty that if the drinks tray offered Wirra Wirra, Trott would have been warmly welcomed as an essential member of the team. A sensation in Adelaide Hills Chardonnay, richly barrel fermented, a match to the freshest seafood or seared white meat recipes.

$3149each $377DOZEN EACH DOZEN Wirra Wirra treat the selection of their fruit with the greatest of zeal, sourcing a parcel of the most exquisite Chardonnay from a precious site at Lenswood in the Adelaide Hills. Grapes are all hand picked and whole bunch pressed, the free run juices are filled to French oak for an exclusively wild, indigenous yeast fermentation. All barrels are tasted weekly while treated to a course of lees stirring battonage to infuse complexity and encourage malolactic. Barrels are sulphured on lees at various stages throughout a term of maturation in a high proportion of new Seguin Moreau and Mercurey Burgundy coopered oak barrels, to capture and preserve excellence of Adelaide Hills fruit character.

Vibrant gold with green hue. Bouquet offers up lifted white peach and nectarine fruits, lemon rind and flint. The fruit is complexed by lemon curd, aromatic cedar and cashew notes. The palate reveals a lovely intensity of nectarine and citrus fruit characters, lemon curd and cedar. A complex balance between the fresh stone fruits, bright acid and wonderful creamy texture.

Greg Trott, the man who nursed Wirra Wirra back to health and re-introduced the estate's noble wines to the world, was a wanderer. A simple run to the local shops might evolve into an interstate luncheon. He would return a day or so later, bemused by the fuss. It seemed to all, that Trott was in training to become Olympic Hiding Champion and it became part of the folklore at Wirra Wirra. Sauvignon Blanc is sourced from Jeff and Ann Gower's spectacular Yandra Vineyard at Lenswood in Adelaide Hills and vinified into a rejuvenating, stylish young wine.

$2399each $287DOZEN EACH DOZEN Wirra Wirra has been working closely with the Australian Wine Research Institute to identify unique yeast strains, with particular interest around the resultant aromatics and palate feel, in a quest to produce world class Sauvignon Blanc. This period of exploration has evolved into the Hiding Champion. Hand picked grapes are destemmed, crushed and cooled to 5C. Juices are pressed, retaining the free run and solids in separate fermenters. Batches are warmed to 17C and inoculated with choice yeasts. Upon completion of ferment to completely dry, the Hiding Champion is chilled and stirred on lees briefly prior to gentle filtration and bottling.

Pale straw with green hues. Pungent nettle, lemon spice, fresh herb and notes of tropical fruit. The palate rides on a wave of lively natural acid but is well supported by sweet soft gooseberries and grapefruit, a touch of passionfruit and leafy spice. Hiding Champion shows plenty of texture and depth, the tight minerality leads to a clean and lively finish, lingering and pure.

In 1947, Wirra Wirra patriarch Greg Trott lost the only watch he ever owned, from that day forth he never bothered with wearing a timepiece again. Confdent to the end that he could tell time by the sun, Trott was notoriously always late, hours and even days. Fortunately, his great legacy to the nation was unhurried and unstrained, to make great wine, one needs to ignore the clock and allow the magic of nature to determine its own course. Adelaide Hills Riesling at its finest, left to its own as it slowly vinifies over the course of weeks, without the distractions of a clock.

$2399each $287DOZEN EACH DOZEN From mature sites at Lenswood and Mt Torrens, off vines up to forty years old. The Wirra Wirra team intervene as little as possible in the magic of fruit evolving into wine, placing their faith in the management of vineyards and blessings of nature. Grapes are selectively hand picked to avoid any sun damaged berries, to minimize skin contact and retain delicate aromatics. Bunches are crushed and de-stemmed through a membrane press. Solids are separated, the free run juices are clarified and transferred into fermenters for inoculation with either QA23, Anchor VIN 13 or PDM yeasts, followed by several weeks vinification at cooler temperatures to maximize purity of Adelaide Hills fruit character.

Brilliant pale straw, green hues. A lifted bouquet with classic talc, perfumed floral notes and a citrus zest. Displaying an intense core of ripe citrus throughout the palate with persistent flavour and a minerally structure offset by a hint of brown lime. Refreshing acidity persists providing a beguiling mouth feel and a long finish. This wonderfully pristine and classic dry style Australian Riesling can be fully appreciated in its youth.

The Wilyabrup subregion of Margaret River is widely acclaimed by industry pundits as the source of Australia's finest Chardonnay. Woodland's consuming ambition is to create wines which emulate the great vineyards of the world. There is less than a hectare of low yielding Chardonnay at Woodlands and output is highly limited. Woodlands is produced exclusively from Mendoza, the clone that made Margaret River famous for Chardonnay. A luxurious regimen of lees stirring and new oak fermentation adds mouth filling textures and rich complexity.

$3699each $443DOZEN EACH DOZEN Chardonnay vines were planted in 1985 to light gravelly loam soils atop Woodland's south facing slope. The Gingin/ Mendoza clone was first choice, famous for it's hen and chicken bunchset, delivering low yields with higher levels of acidity and great intensity of flavour. Grapes are hand picked at ripe and healthy baumes, each batch is separately destemmed through an advanced vibrating hopper and pressed into French oak for a luxurious course of barrel ferments, enhancing intensity of fruit while achieving a more complex flavour profile. Upon completion, most batches are racked, a third of the wine remains in barrel. Come September, components are racked and assembled for filtration and bottling.

Intense straw hue. Layers of stonefruit and lime, nectarines and pear, mineral notes and struck flint over subtle French oak. The palate is balanced and refined, showing great poise and finesse, stonefruits and citrus, mineral and flint over delightful French oak, finishing with a vibrant crisp texture from the bright natural acidity. A rich, full bodied wine with excelent retention of natural freshness.
