We’ve also received a great start to the 2020 wine show season. A summary of recent results includes:
- The Trophy for “Best Pinot Noir” and top Gold medal for our (pre-release) 2018 Estate Pinot Noir at the 2019 Cowra Wine Show.
- The Trophy for “Best Sparkling Wine” and top Gold medal for our 2012 Cuvée Traditionelle at the 2019 Cairns Wine Show (alas, no wine show dinner for this long running wine show so no opportunity for me to enjoy a quick trip to warmer climes!)
- A “Grand” Gold medal for our 2005 Late Disgorged Sparkling at the 2019 Berliner Wine Trophy Competition (Summer Tasting) in Berlin, Germany (one of only 19 such medals awarded – given that there were 6,286 entries it means this wine was placed in the top 0.3% of wines at this show!) We only made around 400 bottles (yes, bottles) of this wine and it will only be available from our soon to be constructed cellar door at Bream Creek – another reason to book that trip to Tassie for mid to late next year!
- Gold medals for our 2018 ‘Old Vine’ Reserve Riesling ( 2019 Cowra Wine Show and 2019 Berliner Wine Trophy Competition (Summer Tasting)), 2018 Estate Riesling (2019 Berliner Wine Trophy Competition (Summer Tasting)), 2018 Chardonnay (2019 Berliner Wine Trophy Competition (Summer Tasting)), 2017 Sauvignon Blanc (2019 Berliner Wine Trophy Competition (Summer Tasting)), 2017 Reserve Chardonnay (2019 Berliner Wine Trophy Competition (Summer Tasting) and 2017 Reserve Pinot Noir (2019 Melbourne International Wine Competition).
The 2012 Cuvée, 2017 Sauvignon Blanc and 2017 Reserve Chardonnay are all currently available, while the remaining wines will be released next year – so keep an eye on your emails!
Cheers, Fred
