Amazing Value for Money, Now Under $30!

Straw yellow colour. Lemon tart, nectarine with a hint of flintiness and cedar oak with a thread of wax and saline. A lovely balance of fruit purity and textural winemaking with grapefruit, stone fruits and lemon curd. The palate has wonderful tension with creamy, chalky texture and mineral acidity.

Fruit from Lenswood, Piccadilly Valley and Lobethal in the Adelaide Hills was whole bunch pressed directly to French oak for wild fermentation. Matured in barrel for nine months with lees stirring to build complexity, this is a layered Chardonnay with lovely fruit purity. It is named after Greg Trott who resurrected Wirra Wirra from ruin in 1969 and was a cricket fanatic. Trott never fulfilled his dream of wearing a baggy green, but he would have made the ultimate 12th Man at any cricket ground if the drinks tray contained a crisp glass of this Adelaide Hills Chardonnay.

Adelaide Hills

The Adelaide Hills is one of the largest geographical wine regions in Australia, and amongst the most diverse in terms of climate, soil and topography. Because of this, many different varietals are planted here with the most dominant being Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Gris. It is generally thought of as a cooler region, especially when compared to neighbouring Barossa to the north and Mclaren vale and Langhorne Creek to the south.

NZ Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc has been popular in Australia for a while now, but Adelaide hills Sauvignon Blanc (the most planted grape in the region) could be considered the Aussie Savvy Blanc. From www.adelaidehillswine.com.au about their Sauvignon Blanc: “Wines that are textured, edgy, vibrant and dry with exceptional fruit definition, length and crispness that marry superbly with summer seafood.”

You can also find some cool climate shiraz from the Adelaide hills, defying the more common big bold style that is usually seen in Australian Shiraz.
