2020 Collection Mornington Peninsula Chardonnay - 92 Points

Acidity is in the driver’s seat, racy and fresh, but also keeping the palate very tight and lean. It feels as if more flavour is needed to bolster the palate. That might come about in time. Drink 2022 - 2027. Jane Faulkner, Halliday Wine Companion 2022

2020 Wombat Creek Vineyard Chardonnay - 95 Points

An intense and electrifying wine thanks to its overt acidity, yet the power of fruit can hold its own. It’s also flinty, smoky, loaded with grapefruit and lemon juice plus zest, with toasty oak that’s well integrated. It’s youthful and still in its high-energy phase, a bit more time in bottle will allow some mellowing. Of course, plenty will go for the style immediately as it’s super-refreshing. Drink 2023 - 2030. Jane Faulkner, Halliday Wine Companion 2023

2020 Highbow Hill Vineyard Chardonnay - 93 Points

A perky, high-acid wine that’s as piercing as laser light, a touch nervy and needs time to integrate fully. The oak and creamy lees are way in the background, but they add some depth to this tightly wound wine. Drink 2023 - 2030. Jane Faulkner, Halliday Wine Companion 2023

2021 Regional Selections Yarra Valley Rose - 95 Points

Sangiovese and nebbiolo come together to form this ultra-pale copper-hued rosé. It’s delicious. Lightly aromatic, a squirt of red berries, a sprinkle of fresh basil and lemon balm with lemony freshness guaranteed. A juiciness across the palate, a mere hint of tannins to add some shape but ultimately, this is crisp, racy and seemingly thirst quenching. Drink 2022 - 2023. Jane Faulkner, Halliday Wine Companion 2023

2019 Collection Margaret River Cabernet Sauvignon - 93 Points

100% cabernet. There’s no denying its regional stamp with mulberries, ironstone, cassis and leafy freshness setting the foundation. Violets, bitter chocolate, green walnut and sweet, spicy cedar oak add a certain depth to the full-bodied palate, as do the plentiful tannins. Drink 2023 - 2034. Jane Faulkner, Halliday Wine Companion

2020 Collection Heathcote Shiraz - 95 Points

Fruit comes off 2 unnamed yet disparate sites – one northern and warmer, the other southern and cooler. Destemmed, hand sorted, 2 weeks on skins and aged in French puncheons, 30% new, for 11 months. An excellent dark red with a purple tinge; dark plums, bay leaves, sweet cedary oak, baking spices and an earthy ferrous note set the regional and varietal flavours. It’s deep, rich and concentrated, with plush savoury tannins sashaying across the full-bodied palate, yet this doesn’t feel weighty. It’s complex, detailed and refreshing in its own way. Drink 2022 - 2030. Jane Faulkner, Halliday Wine Companion

THE REGION

Yarra Valley

One of Australia’s premier cool climate wine regions, the Yarra Valley encompasses such diverse topography that it can produce premium quality fruit in a range of grape varieties.

With its stunning hills and dales ranged before a backdrop of blue mountains, elevations vary greatly. The climate is Mediterranean with a maritime influence from Port Phillips.

THE REGION

Mornington Peninsula

A maritime region about 50km south-east of Melbourne. It is surrounded by ocean and the climate is moderated year-round, with cooling ocean breezes in summer and relatively mild winters.

Soils vary from the red volcanic earth on the spine of hills running down the centre of the peninsula to grey clay loams on the plains.

THE REGION

Margaret River

Margaret River is one of the most reliable wine growing regions in Australia and its monotonously glowing vintage reports can bring tears to the eyes of long-suffering vignerons in regions less favoured by Mother Nature.

Surrounded by ocean on three sides, the sea breeze brings cool air to moderate the long summer days.
