Barossa Valley Rose 2004 This wine is 100% Barossa valley Grenache from our Becker vineyard.  Vibrant deep pink in colour.  Aromas are of sweet confectionary and spice.  The palate is bright and light with crisp acidity and lingering flavours of blackcurrant .  A refreshing drink and a fine compliment to nibbles any tine for the day. Drink now.
    Barossa Valley Sangiovese 2003 Medium red in colour with purple hues.  Lifted aromas of savoury meat mingle with hints of pencil-like oak and lead to a generous palate full of war sweet fruit showing herbal notes.  The wine finished savoury and slightly dry. An excellent accompaniment to cold meats and anti pasta.

 

 

Gibson Shiraz 2002 Intense liquorice, ripe prune Shiraz characters on the nose with interesting notes of coconut, orange peel and smoke.  The palate is powerful, thick, round, juicy and shows all the hallmarks of good Shiraz and treated with sensitivity to produce a great wine.  It is extraordinary weight and viscosity.  It shows generous sweet fruit balance with perfect acidity and chocolate like tannins.  The finish is dry harmonious and lovely fruit flavours linger on the palate.
