Mitchelton PARISH Shiraz Viognier Goulburn Valley Victoria Australia
Description: Mitchelton winery was founded in 1973, and to this day remains one of Australia's most architecturally fascinating wineries. Here the Mitchelton tower rises high above the cellar door giving an inspiring view of the vineyards set on the meander of the pristine Goulburn River. Mitchelton lies in the heart of Central Victoria, sourcing from the sub-regions of Heathcote, Goulburn Valley and the Strathbogie Ranges. Mitchelton wines deliver balance, texture and complexity with consistent flavours that define the distinctive regional characteristics of Central Victoria. Great care from the vineyard to winery went into producing this blend of Viognier and Shiraz. The grapes were harvested from vineyards in Central Victoria and Nagambie Lakes then once in the winery the grapes were processed together in static fermenters. Fianlly, after pressing, the wine was pumped to barrel and spent 18 months in mostly french oak barriques. This has produced a rich garnet coloured red wine opening with highly fragrant plums and vanilla ice cream, musk highlights and dried raisins. Parish is silky smooth and flows beautifully from up front sweetness to old fire and vanilla richness with lingering flavours of 'old Jamaica '-nuts and raisins. (6 x 75 cl)

Tallarook Marsanne Upper Goulburn Victoria Australia
Description: Full bodied, rich and smooth, with intriguing aromas of pear and marzipan. On the palate smooth yeast creaminess is tempered by characteristic varietal chalkiness.

Originally established in the mid eighties, the Riebl family have extended and improved the vineyards over the last twelve years. Handpicked and whole bunch pressed, the juice is cold settled, then directly transferred to French oak barrels where it undergoes wild yeast fermentation and partial malolactic fermentation. Racked off lees after twelve months, it is allowed to mature in old French oak for another 12 months before bottling. (6 x 75 cl)
