This will be the last release wine under our Regional Series banner with all future wines in our new re-vamped White Label and it is more than a fitting farewell.

Dark red plums and delicious aromas of milk chocolate and cinnamon toast seriously leap out of the glass. This wine smells deliciously enticing and is the outcome of bottling this wine after only 7 months in old French barrels, retaining the purity of primary fruit.

The medium bodied palate is generous with crunchy acidity leading through to a fine coating of mouth filling tannins. The wines is very approachable but also has depth and character that is true to the ‘Crianza’ style of Spain this wine has been made for (short time on oak, bottled young). Drinking at its best when moderately young so enjoy over the next 5-7 years.

This is going to be a joy with food. May we suggest a Basque style pintxo (tapas) of Chorizo and Manchego on crisp, fried bread.

Nebbiolo is a thick-skinned grape variety and while the colour in the glass is a bright cherry red, it is translucent. However, lurking in these thick skins are tannins and these give the wine its fantastic structure.

The wine is light to medium bodied on the palate with sweet fruits of cherries and blueberries backed up by firm tannins. Combine this with a crunchy acidity giving the wine length and you have a wine screaming out for a protein laden dish to suit.

Fantastic to drink as a young wine so enjoy over the next 2-3 years but it will last a few more than that.

Protein doesn’t always have to be a cut of meat. Grab a timber board, add rich pork sausage, creamy prosciutto, fresh burrata, a slice of pecorino, a few chestnuts and a handful of olives. Buon Appetito.

Our first release of Ginger-Rose since 2015 and with a 5% addition of Viognier to the blend, she is becoming a very elegant young lady.

The wine looks awesome in the glass, bright and ruby red in colour. The aromas from the glass are all about plums and dark berries, alluring florals and just a hint of sweet liquorice. The enticing French oak brings some deft savoury spice to the finish.

On the palate we see the true elegance that Ginger-Rose has now developed. Medium bodied with fantastic structure and length the generous fruit is tempered by the French oak, restraining the wine from becoming to extroverted. Spicy black pepper waves goodbye on a long finish that is supported by the ripe red fruits and young, fine tannins. Drinking beautifully now and well into 2026.

As suggested by our wonderful Trisha in cellar door, who is married to a Frenchman, medium rare eye fillet topped with a rich dose of foie gras. As it melts, so does your heart.
