Alchemy Semillon Sauvignon Blanc
Lively straw with greens. The immediate impact of high quality toasted French oak displaying hints of grilled nuts, marzipan and cedar delivers the first of many chapters to this wine. The barest hint of reductive gunsmoke quickly gives way to lifted grapefruit and lemon essence.This wine is all about structure and texture derived from top quality French Oak, lees stirring and significantly, whole berry fermentation on skins.The palate is highly complex delivering layers of sea minerals, citrus pith, celery and earthy cornucopia. Beguiling in its depth the wine displays a creamy rich centre winding up with brilliant cleansing acidity and tannins. Drinking impeccably now the wine will evolve and develop over the next few years.

Mosaic Pinot Grigio
Startling pale salmon. Lifted, fragrant and immediately intoxicating from the glass.
Incredibly fresh, crisp and vibrant with tantalising tannins and texture which dance around the palate in full party mode! We find the usual suspects of pear, apple and spice but there is a little kicker of guava and exotic fruits whizzing in and out of the conversation. Incredibly moreish and smashable yet has some serious depth and structure for the more urgent member of the group.
Bellarine Chardonnay
Straw with greens.
This wine is all about freshness, vitality and structure.
Made in a racy, fresh, moreish style with wet stone, mineral and citrus with white flowers in the mix.
Of great joy and interest now the wine will evolve significantly over the next 5 to 7 years.
Revolution Blend - Pinot Gris, Semillon, Chenin
Taking white blends into left field – 3 varieties, 3 years, 3 barrels. The result: Complexity, layers, structure, texture – yum......
Fresh, but mature. Racy, but rich and creamy. Layers, texture and long!
Green apple, cut apple, white flowers, hints of fresh straw all flowing and rolling around the palate.
This wine must not be too cold – let the complexity sing!
Over to you.....

Heathcote Nebbiolo
Vibrant, luminous deep cherry. Incredibly perfumed exhibiting hints of violet, black cherry, spice and anise. As with so many Nebbiolo’s this wine has a slow build. Initially, in the mouth, it tastes of cherry, rose petal, spice and fennel then as the wine is rolled around the mouth the weight and structure evolve declaring some balanced acidity and evident fine savoury tannins. A delight to drink now and into the next 5 years. Lead me to the food!!
