Sparkling Chardonnay Pinot Noir NV

Tasting Notes

Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grapes from a cool climate region were selected for their natural
acidity and pristine flavour. The time on yeast lees and bottle ageing were short term to
enhance the youthful fruit flavours evident in the wine.

The wine presents a pale golden hue with persistent fine bubbles and the nose contributes
green apple and yeasty aromas. Flavours of almond and nougat blend into a supple palate
of sherbet and creamy yeast characters. A deliciously vibrant wine that is perfect as an aperitif to tantalize the taste buds but very
drinkable with numerous food styles and dishes.

Semillon Sauvignon Blanc 2007

Tasting Notes

This blend is an unoaked blend of Semillon
and Sauvignon Blanc from the Mischief vineyard in the Heart of the Frankland River,
Western Australia.

A very dry winter in 2007 caused crops to be
considerably down on average but the fruit
was of extremely high quality with intense
fruit essence and great character.

This is a refreshing dry wine with aromatic
grassy and tropical fruit aromas with a palate
that displays a complex array of upfront fruit
flavours.The wine is rich and flavoursome, the finish is clean, crisp and dry with a long, lingering
aftertaste .

The Premium Tier
Top Hat Chardonnay 2008

Tasting Notes

Margaret River has long been acclaimed as the region for Chardonnay in Western Australia but there are many fine examples now from the Pemberton and Manjimup regions. For our first Chardonnay, we chose the majority of fruit
from Pemberton, 67% - and from two vineyards. Koolama vineyard and Merum vineyard. The Margaret River component came from Lills vineyard in Marybrook near Dunsborough.

The Premium Tier Top Hat Chardonnay 2008
All the fruit was harvested at optimal ripeness, transported to the winery and fermented in
stainless steel tanks with the addition of French oak staves to impart smoky and vanillan aromas
and a toasty, spicy flavour on the palate. The fruit itself imparted citrus and peach aromas and
nashi pear and stone fruit flavours. The wine is medium bodied though elegant with a textural
mouthfeel, balanced acid and long finish.
It will be best drinking in the first twelve months to three years.

Chenin Blanc 2008

Tasting Notes

This wine is typical of a premium Western Australian Chenin Blanc with fragrant tropical fruit characters on the nose which follows through to the palate.

The mouth filling fruit flavours lead into a clean, crisp finish. Quality grapes from Smith and Kendall vineyards in the Swan Valley and Harvie vineyard in Geographe were used to produce this wine. Ideal on its own or with seafood or salad dishes.
