BrownBrothersKingValley Barbera
Description: A deep, vibrant ruby colour displaying fresh crimson edges and a fragrant nose of sweet, ripe mulberry and plum with a whisper of oak. These aromas follow through to the palate joined by soft flavours of cherry. This elegant wine has a refreshing acidity on the front palate and finishes with a luscious, lingering rush of mulberry and gentle tannin grip. Can be enjoyed young but will also benefit from cellaring for 3 to 4 years. In spite of small quantities and limited releases in its early years this variety has carved out a strong following amongst wine lovers who have fallen for its flavour, elegance and versatility as an accompaniment to a wide range of Mediterranean inspired dishes. The grapes are sourced from Brown Brother's Milawa vineyard and harvested in parcels during April at a range of baumé levels from 13.5 to 14 degrees. After fermentation the wine spends 15 months in a mixture of 2, 3 and 4 year old French and American oak barriques and puncheons. (12 x 75 cl) Price: £89.92

BrownBrothers PATRICIA Cabernet Sauvignon KingValley Victoria Description: This wine presents a saturated, red black colour with enormous richness and concentration. The nose demonstrates ripe characters of red currants and cassis combined with the subtleties of a wine handled with French oak. The palate is concentrated and rich with good length of flavour and well structured acid and firm tannins. The Patricia Cabernet Sauvignon has flavour intensity and fine tannin structure. Full physiological grape ripeness of this outstanding vintage season has highlighted varietal berry and cassis characters. French oak was used for its contribution to the tannin profile of the wine, and its subtle wood complexity. The Patricia Cabernet continues the success of two KingValley vineyards with 36% from Politini and 15% Ray vineyard fruit. Another outstanding vineyard site in North East Victoria is the Gentle Annie vineyard in the Dookie Hills, which has contributed 28%, providing mid-palate flesh and structure. A small percentage of fruit from the new Serengale vineyard in the Beechworth hills and a dash of Petit Verdot has achieved classic structure and balanced flavours. (6 x 75 cl) Price: £109.38

BrownBrothers PATRICIA Sparkling Wine KingValley Victoria Description: The wine shows a gentle straw colour with a fine persistent bead achieved from a long, slow secondary fermentation in the bottle under very cool conditions. The nose is lifted and elegant with lovely citrus overtones of lime and granny smith apples. The wine was made in strict adherence to traditional Méthode Champenoise techniques. Each parcel of fruit underwent malo-lactic fermentation before being blended and undergoing its second fermentation in bottle. It spent 5 years maturing on yeast lees after the second fermentation was completed. The palate is creamy and elegant with a crisp, dry finish and refreshing acidity. All fruit for the Patricia Pinot Chardonnay Brut is grown at our high altitude Whitlands vineyard where the climate is ideal for retaining acidity essential for this style of wine. This vineyard is located at 800m above sea level in the sub-alpine area at the top end of the KingValley. The wine is 68% Pinot Noir, 20% Chardonnay and 12% Pinot Meunier. Low phenolic extraction is essential to the style, so the fruit is hand picked and whole bunch pressed in air bag presses. Only the first 500L per tonne is used, to minimise the phenolic content. (6 x 75 cl) Price: £109.50
