2024 White Release
Staying true to our 'classically radical' approach to winemaking – fusing old traditions with new techniques, we are proud to be releasing a stellar lineup of white wines, including beloved Hunter Valley Semillon and Chardonnay, extremely limited quantities of Albariño, Fiano and Viognier plus the our first Chardonnay from the family vineyard in Orange that just won Best Chardonnay at the 2024 James Halliday Chardonnay & Cabernet Challenge.
Whilst the 2023 Chardonnay wines were initially handled by Alex Beckett, the rest of the wines have been produced by incumbent winemaker, Andrew Duff. His knowledge and experience is evident in the 2024 whites with precision, complexity and enjoyability all at the forefront in this release.
2024 Single Vineyard
'Dairy Hill' Semillon
Mount View, Hunter Valley
The latest rendition of our most awarded wine. Grown in the oldest Semillon block onsite that is uniquely planted in clay soils rather than the more typical sandy soils of Pokolbin. This wine has a palate that is slightly more full and giving in its youth before ramping up with age.
