Wandin Valley Estate Reserve Chardonnay 2009

“A gold medal winner at the 2009 Hunter Valley Wine Show, it was fermented in French oak barrels and matured on lees for seven months. There are fresh peachy / citrus aromas, delicate flavour and great length. Enjoy with baked snapper.”

Wandin Valley Estate Single Vineyard Viognier 2009

Wandin Valley winemaker Matt Burton has made a viognier here that pleases me – something pretty rare. It comes from the Lovedale area Camp Rd vineyard and Matt gave it barrel fermentation, with only 20 percent of the batch put in new oak. I think it has imparted a subtle oak counterpoint and controlled the excessive exotics that spoil many viogniers. The wine shines brassy-light gold in the glass and has enticing tangelo and jasmine aromas. Crisp apricot flavour features on the front of the palate and orange peel and savoury fruit elements integrate perfectly with restrained hazelnutty oak. Steely acid refreshes at the finish.

Wandin Valley Estate Single Vineyard Semillon 2009

“The colour is pale and the nose is shy, young and reserved. The taste is fresh and tangy, perhaps a hint of sweetness balancing the jumpy acidity. Lemon zesty in the mouth, it has a very clean finish and makes a terrific drink while young.”

Wandin Valley Estate Reserve Semillon 2009

“Pale-hued and restrained, this has a hint of cosmetic or powder-puff to sniff, coupled with a juicy but dry taste that’s soft, light and easygoing – although it is built to age. Layers of citrus and stone-fruit flavours. Now to 10 years.”

Wandin Valley Estate Bridie’s Reserve Shiraz 2007

“It is dark garnet and has scents of cassis, caramel and tobacco leaf. Silky smooth blackcurrant flavour flows onto the front palate and glace cherry, dark chocolate and nutmeg fruit characters meld with vanillin oak on the middle palate. Lingering berry fruit and soft earthy tannins combine at the finish.”
