“There is a buzz around pinot grown in Mount Gambier and theres is a good reason for it. Cool growing conditions, rocky mineraly soils and low yielding vines have helped create a complex bouquet awash with true Pinot characters. It has hints of vanilla and fresh tobacco over spicy cherry notes. This is a more-ish tribute to the local landscape and begs for foggy evenings, an armchair and plenty of time to waste” Katie Spain, wine Writer, Adelaide Adveriser 2019

The Golden Orb, Sparkling Coonawarra Shiraz 2015
Fizz, Our Wine
What Australia does best! Aged in French oak barrels for 2 years, this is a elegant cool climate Shiraz, that will age well until 2025. Our aim is to make a complex sparkling Shiraz. Cool climate Shiraz works great as a sparkling, as the mint notes make it refreshing on hot days when you feel like a steak. The oak ages has given some nice Christmas cake complexity, but still with fresh blackcurrants and licorice.

Cape Banks Chardonnay 2019
Our Wine, White Wines
The grapes for this cool-climate Chardonnay are grown in Mount Gambier, the coolest mean maximum temperature average of any wine region in mainland Australia. 50% of the wine was matured in new French oak Hogshead barrels for 4 months, which brough on a malo-latic ferment (2nd ferment) changing the malo acids into lactic acid the same as in milk and butter giving it a creamy mouth feel. The remaining 50% of the wine was fermented with select year. This single ferment keeps the crisp lime, pink lady apple and mineral notes. This is 'left on lees' (the dead yeast after ferment) and is stirred to increase flavours and complexity.

1000 Sundowns Cabernet Sauvignon 2017
Our Wine, Red Wines
Named after Emma Louise's beautiful song and dedicated to my Mum & Aunt, who got to be in their husbands "arms for 1000 sundowns; it was a love worth remembering." In 2017, our Coonawarra vineyards were certified to Australian Organic standards, and no pesticides have been used on the property for over 10 years. We use natural alternatives likes flowers to attract bugs which eat our pests. Small berries like ours, express more colour and flavour and the skins natural soft tannins will naturally help this wine age well until 2029.

Silver Eyes Shiraz 2017
Our Wine, Red Wines
Koonara is the name of our Coonawarra estate whwere our family has lived for over 110 years. When wine is aged in fine oak barrels, a portion evaporates - winemakers call this the 'Angels Share.' From this, the koonara Angel was born. This wine is named after my beautiful wife Nicole, who has piercing blue eyes with hints of yellow, making them look silver. A great example of a cool climate year in Coonawarra with fresh coffee and dark chocolate layered with fresh blackberries and spice. Aged for 18 months in 100% French oak 300L Hogsheads.
