The wines
Each is one lot, made in one vessel. The winemaker designs the style; the calls inside it are yours.
Semillon
A young Hunter Semillon is lean and citrusy, with lemon and green apple over a chalky cut, built on low alcohol and zesty acidity to age for decades.
$50/vine · 2 btl/vine

Shiraz
A Hunter Valley Shiraz is medium-bodied and earthy, with red plum and blackberry over a leathery, savory note and soft spice and medium tannins.

Semillon
An aged-release Hunter Semillon develops toast and honey notes over lemon curd and lanolin, with a vibrant, ageless acidity beneath.
