There are four tiny patches of vine at Scotchman's Hill, which have been mollycoddled by Robin Brockett, since the start of his tenure as chief winemaker in the 1980s. Excruciatingly limited after a strict pruning and rigorous sorting of fruit, they each yield a mere hundred cases of wine. Brockett has set aside the precious harvests of these superior blocks for his own label, a personal project to hand craft the finest of vintage, an exclusive range of the Bellarine's most elite single vineyard efforts. So besotted is Brockett by the spectacular quality of fruit from these four regal parcels, he has imported two 800 Litre Tuscan vinification Amphora from the.. Brockett begets the best of bellarine»

Established 1908, Redman's Coonawarra are still made by the Redman brothers from fruit grown to the original family parcels. The tradition began 1901 when Bill Redman, at the tender age of fourteen, made the journey to take up an apprenticeship at the John Riddoch wineworks and to labour amongst Coonawarra's founding vineyards. Bill Redman's earliest vintages were sold off to other companies but it was not until 1952 that the Redman family released their own wines under the moniker Rouge Homme. Redman was finally branded under its own label in 1966, it remains one of the most enduring marques in Coonawarra. Husbanded by the 4th generation, parcels from the..

Trevor Jones Boots Shiraz CONFIRM VINTAGE

Shiraz Barossa South Australia
The folks who make wine at Kellermeister wear boots and have purple hands. The winemaking here really is old world style, nothing is done by machine. Parcels of hand selected grapes from choice Barossa vineyards are fashioned into an exquisite Shiraz wine offering generous helpings of deliciously rich, sweet blackberry flavours and requiste Barossa dark chocolate characters, finishing long and fruit filled on a note of lingering spice. A superb choice with barbequed or roasted meats, rich desserts and fine aged cheese.
It all began in the late 1970s as Ralph and Val Jones sat with gumboots on, ankle deep in water, labouring into the night together. Kellermeister have since been selecting grapes from a rich tapestry of vineyards throughout the Barossa and Eden Valleys. Very old Shiraz vines line the road winding up to the Kellermeister cellar door. Each parcel contributes it's own unique characteristics, which the team endeavour to preserve in the finished wines. Adding to the character of contributions from vineyards are the individual personalities behind the grapes, a team of dedicated and passionate local growers who work tirelessly throughout the year to deliver the quality of fruit which is the life blood of Kellermeister wines.
Deep, bright red colour. A deliciously full bodied, ripe Shiraz displaying sweet blackberry jam fruit with hints of chocolate and spice. The subtle influence of French and American oak adds depth, giving the palate a rounder feel. Balanced acidity and soft, amiable yet chewy tannins, finishing persistent and long. Pair with rich aged chedder cheeses or grilled steak.

Since returning from the Hunter Valley, Trevor has been successful in numerous wine shows, most notably the 1993 Barossa Valley Wine Show, where he was awarded three trophies, among which was the highly coveted Most Outstanding Barossa / Eden Valley Dry Red for his 1990 Cabernet Merlot. In 1994 he was equally successful, being awarded the trophy for Best Wine Small Producer (crushing less than 500 tonnes of grapes) for his 1994 Chardonnay.

Some of Trevor's most notable accolades have come from Robert Parker, who awarded Jones two perfect 100 point scores (the first time ever assigned by The Wine Advocate) for the Old Barossa Tokay and the Barossa Liqueur Shiraz Tawny. These awards were recently followed by Best Boutique Riesling for the 1998 Eden Valley Riesling, awarded by Boutique Wines of Australia 2000. Well done Trevor!
