Producer Notes - "Luscious and captivating, with dark plums, cassis and subtle briar notes that demand your attention are backed by a stridently confident palate. The textural nature of this wine and glossy tannins are a work of art. Time will reward those who cellar this most complete Giaconda shiraz!
Alcohol: 13.8%. Closure: Cork. Cellaring: 5-15 years. Source: Giaconda Estate & Warner Vineyard"

The 2022 biodynamically certified blend consists of 30-40% Merlot and Cabernet Franc, a touch of Malbec, Petit Verdot and Carménère, with the remaining Cabernet Sauvignon.
"The aromas of the 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon Cabernet Franc Merlot show dark plum intermingled with blackcurrants and elements of cigar box. This medley carries through to the palate with tight acidity, complex fine grain tannin and spicy oak. Providing extra length and dimension. Still a young wine, it will benefit with cellar time." - Barry … more

An aperitif based on rhubarb, citrus and flowers. A gentle bitterness, predominantly from gentian and barberry, and a judicious use of sugar, creates a well balanced pre dinner drink.Its carmine colour comes from the rhubarb and blood orange in the recipe, but also from the cochineal ‘Say it three times before dinner, what could go wrong’

"When life gives you yuzu..." make a Yuzucello spritz - at least that's what the gang at Beechworth Bitters tells us. Their Yuzucello is an aroamtic citrus liqueur that packs an intense Yuzu punch with bright floral scents and a refreshingly bittersweet finish. Made from fruit grown in the Ovens Valley, North East Victoria.

"This wine comprises 75% Sauvignon Blanc, 20% Semillon and 5% Sauvignon Gris. Most of the Sauvignon Blanc fruit had 4 hours skin contact prior to pressing. The Semillon component is crushed and pressed immediately after picking. This wine was 100% barrel fermented with predominantly larger barrels used. All went through natural yeast fermentation and malolactic fermentation. The extended lees contact helps fill out the middle palate and gives this wine the extra dimension it is known for.

Grown on a south facing slope, the fruit is hand picked lightly crushed, and basket pressed. The heaviest solids are briefly settled out by gravity, then the juice transferred to barriques awaiting the start of fermentation. This occurs naturally, when it is ready, and takes as long as it takes.
Well balanced fruit will contain everything required to ferment to dryness. Naturally formed sulphides occur in some barrels - usually to a point which produces the beautiful nutty, matchstick characters … more

'An elegant, cool-climate syrah - for once, you might agree with the winemaker's preference for the term syrah over shiraz, and what it means in the glass. The latter maintains a lively, enduring spiciness and charm. Here's a vintage that offers a wealth of the region's pepper and spice style with ripe, dark plums, black cherry fruits, toasty oak and an intriguing whisper of savoury, smoked meats. Rolls across the tongue aided by fine-cut tannins. Depth and grace. 95 points' … more

Rich, Citrus. Peach. Savoury cheese-rind. Nutty. Waxy. Fruit sourced from multiple vineyards across Beechworth, allowing the diversity of the various soil profiles and varying altitudes to come through. This is a hallmark Beechworth chardonnay, showing marked intensity and structure. It's easy to understand, easy to enjoy. You might say it's what people expect from a Beechworth chardonnay. Raised mostly in barrique (small- format, French-oak barrels), some new. This wine is ready to enjoy now. - Winery Notes

Producer Notes - "This wine has been made from select parcels of fruit sourced from the exceptional Warner Vineyard.
A rather appealing bouquet of baked beets, briary notes and roasted meat pan juices coupled with red to black cherries. It's sumptuous and rounded on the palate with a rolling combination of red fruits, spicy oak infusions underpinned by a tremendous layer of fine, savoury tannins. It certainly needs decanting to help open-up the bouquet, whilst also allowing the fruit to … more

Producer Notes - "This Cabernet comes from an excellent neighbouring site planted on ancient decomposed granite, loam and clay soils that are typical of the local area. These soils are ideal for wine quality as they provide good drainage and are high in mineral content without being too rich.
A comforting tone of magenta and black; violets, crushed leaf, cedar and polished leather with some crunchy red berry fruit. As it opens-up, a delicious core of bright red fruits corseted … more
