This single block Chardonnay, from our high-density vines, showcases vibrant notes of white
flowers and peach. The sun-filled ripening conditions of the vintage impart a savoury, chalky
texture, while still preserving the mineral freshness and delicate nuances characteristic of
Main Ridge.
The 2022 Trahere Pinot Noir is the first wine crafted solely from our high-density Spedding
Vineyard, a blend of three exceptional clones—Abel, Pommard, and Calera—grown across
the 1.48 ha site. These clones thrived under the ideal 2022 harvest conditions, resulting in
a wine of remarkable complexity and sophistication. Layers of vibrant red cherry, bramble
spice, and blackberry surround silky tannins, driving a fruit intensity and structure that
lingers beautifully on the palate.
Aromas of lemon verbena and lime custard lift from the glass, together with enticing ripe nectarine and bright citrus notes that follow through on the palate. The flavours evolve in elegant waves, revealing layers of complexity while maintaining a refreshing and vibrant character through to the finish.
Sitting at the lower portion of Coolart Road's eastern slope, ‘D Block’ – the historic heart of our single vineyard wines from this vineyard – typically has darker fruit, an earthy edge with bigger tannins.
This wine shows delicate rose petals intertwined with briny caper berry aromatics, lifting from the glass. The palate unfolds in layers, revealing dark plum and subtle balsamic notes, while hints of glazed beetroot add intrigue. Signature earthen tannins provide a lovely grippy framework, their rustic structure counterbalanced by sweet concentrated plum fruit.
Sitting at the top of the eastern facing slope on our Coolart Road vineyard, ‘F block’ is typically finer and more floral than any other block on Coolart.
This wine opens with ethereal floral notes that dance above a core of black cherry and sweet licorice. The palate displays remarkable precision, where vibrant fruit energy meets fine-grained tannins, creating a harmonious interplay of power and grace.
An introduction of glazed cherry, rhubarb string and bramble spice are evident on the nose. Dried red berries, plum and strawberry glide across the palate along with blood orange and plum pudding. This is met by a delicate red wine jus that leads into a savoury edge of leather, cinnamon spice and finely detailed tannins.
Luscious black cherry, cranberry and raspberry meld nicely with cardamon spice. Stewed rhubarb, baked cherry and olive tapenade are all in harmony as velvet like tannins provide length and texture to the finish.
Stone fruit of white nectarine paired with baked lemon tart and cinnamon spice. This is a wine that delivers minerality and complexity with a creamy marscapone edge thrown in the mix. Fresh, long and complete with a soft phenolic grip that lingers for some time.
Carefully selected parcels from our Main Ridge sites meld together to show clarity of the ‘Up the Hill” subregion of Mornington. Characters of strawberry and bright red fruits are accompanied by five spice and cedar. Fine graphite like tannin carry through the palate to a delicate soft finish.
Baked cherry and a floral lift jump from the glass. Compote, ripe cranberry and raspberry carry through on the palate with a savoury backbone driven by graphite and clove spice. Earthy tannins bind the wine together, finishing with length and persistence.
A new wine in the 10X range. A blend of Riesling, Fiano, Friulano and Gewürztraminer from two of our ‘down the hill’ vineyards. Lush gooseberry, pink musk and lychee are alluring and glide gracefully into a green peppercorn, lime and spiced palate. An aromatic, refreshing and enticing wine with a soft saline nature and fine edge.
This wine is a blend of Pinot Gris parcels from three vineyards and displays citrus peel, perfumed musk, pear skin, and a touch of spice. It has great depth with a fine textural drive and phenolic grip, which provides an alluring finish.
A refined nose of lemon sorbet, pink grapefruit and frangipanni flowers. Some underlying shortbread crust. The palate shows flavours of pink grapefruit and orange pith, preserved lemon and ginger. The vibrant and refreshing nature of this wine leaves you with a lovely moreish, savory, saline finish.
All the delicate details of Pinot Noir are evident throughout, with spice, red currant and cherry lift on the nose. Fresh on the palate with a energizing drive that is surrounded by delicious fruit.
An inviting perfumed nose of black forest cake, red fruits, florals, and creaming soda. Vibrant red cherry, raspberry compote and chinotto fill the luscious palate. This is followed by underlying baking spice to give a lovely savory backbone. Well-integrated powdery tannins give structure and length.
Perfumed and expressive, this Pinot opens with beautiful fragrant black cherry and blueberry fruits and has a voluptuous charm with layers of aniseed, pink musk and blackberry finishing with a silky texture and chalky fine tannins.
Made with fruit from the Paradigm Hill vineyard, this wine is a beautiful example of a cool climate Shiraz with mulberry, liquorice and bay leaf notes. A subtle but flavoursome mid palate of black cherry is moulded by the earthy tannins that enhance the drive and extend the finish.
