Kicking off the year absolutely as we mean to go on! Even in a sweltering week we’ve already had trade visitors from Singapore (hi 🙌), the US, Belgium and Denmark.

As well as getting out into the vineyard - you can see the pit in Polygon No. 22 in the photos, plus some very successful grafting in the final slide - we’re making sure we’re tasting lots of interesting wines. The quest to learn, refine, improve never lets up…

A lovely trio of Grenache based wines here to start. The superb with Ribera intensity, well-judged oak and super flavour drive. The also an excellent example of Grenache dominant Chateauneuf (with 15% Syrah) from quartz-rich soils. And Polygon No. 3 rounding out the 2022 trio with its typically lifted aromatics and rocky tannin-led structure. All three bottles benefited so much from extra air and time in glass.

Thanks to the generosity of guests we were also able to dig deep into a couple of rarely seen Champagnes and the recent releases from one of our favourite Barossan micro-producers . Cheers to many more great bottles this year 🍷
