Hints of pear and nutty almond meal on the nose. Mineral and slatey flavours support this light bodied, dry wine with moderate acidity. Good representation of the style. Red Hare also do a Pinot Gris that is a little more fleshier as one would expect and it is nice to...
Red Hare Estate Prosecco 2021, Macedon Ranges, Vic
Classic pear and citrus nose. Fresh vibrant and zesty palate with a lovely persistent and crisp dry finish. Estate grown fruit at 620m altitude produces a delicious wine.
Musk Lane Rush Bros Vineyard Pinot Noir 2021, Macedon Ranges, Victoria
Slightly herbal and crunchy cherry and cranberry nose. Light, dry, pretty fruit driven palate. Juicy acidity with some soft, fine tannins on the back palate. Medium finish.
Musk Lane Faraday Vineyard Pinot Noir 2021, Macedon/Bendigo Victoria
Lovely primary red fruit drive nose with ripe cherries and redcurrants nicely supported by cedar oak. Light bodied wine with a nice solid middle palate showing good fruit ripeness. Persistent, yet soft, dry, tannic finish. Extremely satisfying Pinot.
Musk Lane, Faraday Vineyard Chardonnay 2021, Macedon/Bendigo Victoria.
Different approach here from their Malmsbury Chardonnay. 24% new oak and only partial MLF due to a warmer site presumably. So you still get the effects of some good French oak and buttery creamy notes but the palate has a better acid balance and as a result a longer...
Musk Lane Chardonnay 2021, Rush Bros Vineyard, Macedon Ranges, Vic
Sourced from Rush Bros Vineyard, Malmsbury. Wild yeast barrel fermentation, 17 months in old oak and 100% MLF gives this wine a rich buttery, honey nose and a matching creamy rich palate. Lovely mouth filling wine with a long finish. A traditional approach that works....
Zig Zag Rd Kind Folk Red, 2019, Macedon Ranges, Vic
Predominantly Cabernet with some Merlot. Lovely expressive nose full of cooler climate Cabernet fruit. So we have leafy, mint, herbs and eucalyptus notes. Well balanced medium bodied palate with a core of black cherries, medium tannins and a return to that autumnal...
Zig Zag Rd Pinot Noir 2020, Macedon Ranges, Vic
90% Whole bunch fermented gives this wine a hint of stalkiness to support the sweet ripe primary redcurrant and cherry fruits. Dry, light bodied palate with fine tannins and a touch of that stalky savouriness on the finish.
Zig Zag Rd Pet Nat, NV, Macedon Ranges, Vic
Lovely inviting pink stained fizz. Hints of red apple and light red fruits on the nose. Fleshy dry palate which is textured and creamy. Enjoyable drop. This is a blend of Mourvedre, Nebbiolo and Syrah.
Hanging Rock Jim Jim Pinot Noir 2019, Macedon Ranges, Vic
All MV6 clone. Primary fruit driven nose with fresh cherries. Light and sweet cherry fruit driven palate which is surprising for MV6 that is usually more structural. This is probably due to the south facing Jim Jim vineyard and the weather basalt soils. The wine is...
