The original Forest Hill old blocks with contributions from select parcels of the best younger vineyards on the property are used in the crafting of the Estate Wines. Varietal and distinctive to the sites they are grown, these wines purvey fruit purity and definition. Our Estate Wines express our history but also excite us in what we are seeing from our emerging sites.

Grilled Romaine Salad with Aged Balsamic Vinaigrette

”A combination of Gingin and Dijon clones. Light bâtonnage and some mlf. Matured in French oak (20% new). This is very good. The fruit flavours (owing to the blend of clones) show the full spectrum: from apples to stone fruit, pineapple to curry leaf, a melange of citrus and everything in between. The pronounced acidity in the mouth (thanks to both the blend of clones and the region) is softened by the barrel work and partial mlf, leading to a creamy, taut, spicy, citrus-laden wine, with briny acidity woven throughout. As I say: very good.”
