Blended Red - Cabernet Sauvignon Dominated - TO Drama - 2006
Entry Category:
Single Estate Vintage Wines (red, white, rosé)
Judges Tasting Notes:
Mature, interesting nose well evolved and showing pungent new oak, zesty and plummy aromas. The structure is rather lean and elegant, with good extract, fruit and tannin. Its colour is dark purplish ruby and has delicious, mouthwatering acidity on finish. Very stilish.

Award: SILVER MEDAL - BEST IN CLASS
Tasting Category:
Blended Rosé - Syrah Dominated - TO Drama - 2008
Entry Category:
Single Estate Vintage Wines (red, white, rosé)
Judges Tasting Notes:
Vibrant deep pink colour with a purple tinge; a riot of candyfloss, wild strawberries and marshmallow delight the nose. In the mouth it is lively fresh and sweet, round and crisp, with mellow and quite full flavours yet lightly textured. The perfect pink, delicious and uncomplicated.

Award: SILVER MEDAL - BEST IN CLASS
Tasting Category:
Assyrtico - TO of Macedonia - 2008-2007
Entry Category:

The colour is pale gold; the nose is ripe and well developed with a full aromatic profile and lively citrusy character. The palate offers rich flavours, with an almost chewy texture and beautifully balanced by acidity throughout. Brilliant, sensuous wine with a complex, long finish.
