Description
Our Village family of wines are classic expressions of the varieties that the Yarra Valley does best, letting the bright, vibrant fruit flavours speak for themselves. Juicy and lush from the get-go, bountiful cherry and macerated strawberries coat the palate, framed with a delicate lattice of tannin. Flavour and texture continue, along with beautiful, fresh acidity driving into a long finish.

Totally de-stemmed, whole berry ferments. Hand plunged once a day, increasing to twice daily during peak ferment. Gently pressed with final 50-100L/t separated off to avoid hard tannins.

A dainty soft red berried wine with hints of bilberry and juniper. There are strawberry guavas, rhubarb and redcurrants on the vine. A fresh orange veil and a wealth of juicy acidity. So alive with citrus and berries it feels quite the health tonic. Silky tannins and an undercurrent of red clay, dried leaves and cassia bark. There is plenty of intrigue and is drinking well one on its own but has the ability to age further for another 3-4 years. Try this with a moroccan beef and prune couscous.

Fragrant and delicate aromas of wild strawberries, raspberries, rose petals and spices. The palate is light-bodied with fine tannins and bright acidity, giving notes of cherries, cola and cranberries. Fresh and vibrant.

Matured in 500L, 18% new French puncheons. A bright cherry red. Aromas of red and black fruits together with some rose bush scents and brown spices precede the nicely concentrated and well-structured palate. The fact that this will get even better over the next three to five years underlines just how well priced this is.
