The grapes for this wine are picked 10-14 days earlier than the rest of our Semillon in order to capture high natural acidity and low sugar levels. This combination of high acid / low sugar / low pH coupled with grassy, citrus characters produces a wine of relatively low alcohol with excellent ageing ability. The wine is fermented at low temperatures in a stainless steel tank with a neutral yeast strain and bottled as a fresh, zesty youthful wine before being hidden away in the cellar to develop for a few years.
TASTING NOTES: An essential white variety of Bordeaux, France. Semillon is known to produce some of the longest lasting white wines ever made. This wine was harvested with lemony fruit and lively acidity, which has developed in the bottle to produce subtle grapefruit and citrus aromas with a hint of cashew. The palate is rich, and builds honey notes, yet the acidity provides excellent structure and finish.

Tropical flavours of pineapple passionfruit with a creamy rich palate. An interesting new variety in Australia
Bold Berry characters with a touch of mint
The base for this wine is made in a similar method to our still Rosé, and for our initial vintage Sangiovese was used as the base wine. The juice is left in contact with the skins for a few hours in the press to infuse colour and fruit flavours, and then pressed off into a tank and fermenting cool as we do for our whites. The natural acidity and freshness added by making a sparkling version balance the sweet fruit flavours and residual sugar of approximately 40g/L.
Our sparkling Blanc de Blanc is made in the traditional method and is produced from the highest quality fruit each vintage which is specifically selected to showcase the varietal characteristics and terroir of the South Burnett.
Our Alicante wine is made from grapes sourced from a stunning hilltop vineyard in the South Burnett. This naturally red fleshed (teinturier) variety requires little intervention to extract its deep inky colour. Gently handled in closed fermentation vessels it is then pressed to French oak barrels for maturation.
