THE STORY
“When I purchased the Mount Hurtle winery in 1985 it was to preserve a small piece of
Australia’s winemaking history. Today the winery is an oasis among suburbia, nestled in
4 acres of vineyards and landscaped gardens and has retained an almost Tuscan
charm.” - Geoff Merrill
VINTAGE INFORMATION
The 2021 growing season was almost perfect with some describing it as a ‘once
in a lifetime’ vintage. Producing favourable conditions with mild weather show-
ing the potential for above average yields. A comparatively mild and dry Summer
with minimal rain. This coupled with very few hot days leading to a very positive
harvest. Cooler than usual conditions during vintage resulted in yields across
the region as average to high, with some experiencing their best crop in many
years. These conditions leading up to and through vintage have resulted in excel-
lent quality.
WINEMAKERS NOTES
The colour is a dark red with youthful purple hues. On the aroma, there's dark
cherry, bright raspberry, violets, spice and some meaty, savoury notes. The pal-
ate is wonderfully flavoursome and balanced with fine subtle tannins, generous
fruit and good length. Aeration, or time in the glass allows the fruit to further
open up and reveal its full splendour.
FOOD PAIRING
Drink with pork dumplings, lamb Koftas, Tacos, lamb Yiros and BBQ sausages.
