'The taste of the wine is pure nostalgia met with relief, it tastes like Gamay, it tastes like her birthplace in a new light. Ripe cherry, cassis, iron, bruised vine leaf, yakult with a sharp high tone of tartness derived from the limestone pulled into the fruit as though it was sucking the last bit of a margarita on a hot day through a straw, sounds and all.'

"Having made Riesling from the Geelong region for 4 years now, I truly feel I'm starting to understand the drinkable landscape of this variety in this climate. I'm always playing on the edge of sugar and acid with Riesling but when I get it right it's pure harmony. The line in this wine drives and carves the spherical sweetness down the palate, as tiny pin pricks of acid dance across the mouth making the wine physical. Aromatically it's lifted and … more

Mount Moriac comprises of 44 acres of single estate vineyards on the south west shoulder of Mt Moriac, an old volcano 18kms west of the centre of Geelong. The two defining features are the soil profiles and the prevailing weather that comes from the Southern Ocean across the Otway Ranges.
"Light ruby red in colour, our 2023 Pinot Noir has a bouquet of red fruits with hints of earth & spice. The palate is light to medium in weight with … more

Heroes is a bold name for a winery run by one of the humblest winemakers we know. James is all about showing that his vines are the real heroes, making fresh & unfussy wines with great varietal character. His Sauv does just that, verbena and tart passionfruit acid, tempered by a soft, smooth palate.

Often lost in the shadow of its dominating cousin, Pinot Noir, Meunier is the shier, prettier one of the two. Take the Anti-Hero Meunier for example, its vibrant and breathy, bursting at the seams with scents of tart cranberries, fresh raspberries and whispers of green tea and pink peppercorn.

The By Farr viognier consists of a blend of fruit from two vineyards. The first is the original house block, planted in 1994, which is friable red soil over limestone leading to sandstone-similar soils to the Sangreal pinot noir and By Farr chardonnay. The second vineyard is a younger planting of unknown clones in red ironstone soil. The viognier is a difficult variety to manage as it has a tendency to grow horizontally rather than vertically, needs a lot of … more

"The RP Pinot Noir (RP - Robyn Pamela) is in recognition of the matriarch. It is not only the support and goffering that Robyn has endured for Gary's 40 year career. She has been in the vineyard and planted the first vines, driven the tractors, filled barrels and pigeaged at midnight. If we are ever a man down Robyn has always been the first one we have called to fill the void. You can always count on mum. This wine … more

95+ points, Campbell Mattinson, The Wine Front "This is autumnal and sinewy and savoury and spiced, but it's also sleek, harmonious and settled. It bursts onto the palate with red cherries, rhubarb, tangerine and strawberry, with inlays of dried leaves, pepper and smoked cedarwood, but it's the soft-firm of the finish, and the way it seems to both dry and expand at once, and the way the juices keep flowing and fanning, that really mark its quality. It's a top … more

96 points, Erin Larkin, The Wine Companion "The 2023 SRH Chardonnay is textural and taut; it is bound in phenolics at this point, but clearly superb. The length of flavour shows this. The complexity shows this. It's a hugely impressive wine that speaks of white peach, green apples, green olive brine, white strawberries and white pepper. It's salty and a little chewy. This will be a seriously great wine-give it time. 13.5% alcohol, sealed under screw cap."
