THE LANDINGS
The Landing wines have been a huge success since we launched
them in 2007 - a soft, fruit-driven white and a fruity red from the Riverland
region along the Murray River. Stunning value for money and both with a Stelvin
closure.

BROOKFORD
ESTATE
A new contemporary pair of
Australian wines from the Riverina region in New South Wales. Big River
country, where the drip irrigated vineyards of the Riverina are planted, is
crisscrossed with brooks and streams. Dry for most of the year these are easily
crossed as they rarely run very deep, even in the rainy season. Made by the
young and talented winemaker, Sam Trimboli, these characterful wines show
upfront fruit, well defined structure and excellent body.

WIRRA WIRRA WINERY
First established in 1900
by Robert Strangeways Wrigley, Wira Wirra’s cellars in the McLaren Vale fell
into disuse until bought by Greg and Roger Trott in 1969. Now rated by the great
Australian wine pundit, James Halliday, as one of his six most exciting
wineries, the wines of Wirra Wirra go from strength to strength and are renowned
for five main attributes: ripeness, elegance, structure, power and complexity.

GRANT BURGE -
Barossa Valley
Grant Burge’s
unoaked Chardonnay has superb tropical fruit and comes
from his own Barossa Valley fruit. He is now the largest private landowner in
the area, but never makes any sacrifice in the quality of his wine making. The
Barossa Vines Shiraz is a
classic: packed with ripe hedgerow fruits - as indeed is the Grant Burge ‘Old
Vine Shiraz’, his ‘black monster’ flagship wine: quite, quite stunning, his
Merlot is a rich voluptuous red a really
attractive wine. The Holy Trinity, launched in 2000 at York Minster by
the Archbishop of York, has proved an enormous success and is a blend of classic
Rhône varieties: Grenache, Shiraz and Mataro.

Stickies
Grant
Burge’s 10 Year Old Tawny is made from Shiraz, Grenache and Mataro aged
in oak quarter casks under the solero system and makes a delicious summer
aperitif or digestive. Hollick made its first botrytised wine in 1985 and now
has something of a reputation for this style. The 2004 is a luscious wine with
intense honey and citrus flavours with a fresh finish.
