Sometimes it's nice to have a glass of wine with dinner, but the whole bottle is too much. Here's a simple hack which will keep the rest of the bottle fresh for a good week!
It's been a cold and frosty July! Our average minimum temperature for the month was -0.5 degrees, with a finger numbing 16 mornings starting out below -2.0 degrees. But frosty mornings mean clear, sunny days.....
Wishes do come true! Back in February, just as the first of our grapes were starting to ripen, I wrote in our member newsletter..."we'd be quite happy if La Nina packed her bags and left right now!". Okay, so she didn't actually leave, but she did stop directing her fury at us!Â
Have you ever come across this in your cellar? It can happen in humid situations like we are having now, but thankfully the wine inside is NOT affected. The mould is only external, and cannot grow through the cork to get inside. Simply clean it off with a damp cloth before opening, and you’re good to go!Â
Our Cellar door will be open most days over the Christmas / New Year period, only closing on Christmas day & Boxing day, and the 1st & 2nd of January (and closing early on Christmas eve and New Years eve).
Bookings are not required, but are appreciated for groups (i.e 6+).
Wines shows are back! After everything being cancelled in 2020, the 2 major shows we enter in (Rutherglen and the Australian Small Winemakers) have gone ahead in 2021 and our combined medal count stands at 1 Trophy, 6 Gold medals, 12 Silver medals and 14 bronze medals.....
Most of our higher price point reds are released when they are 5 years old. So, they have a little bit of age on them and are all delicious to drink now, but they will cellar further too, if you are so inclined.
2016 was a fast and furious vintage - all the reds ripened a the same time, so it was a race against time to pick the all the grapes. We won the race, and the wines look great!
