Tasting Notes:

The Grail Of Lisa McLaren Vale Old Vines Shiraz 2017

Aromatic fruit driven in its youth, the primary characters are blackberry and some sweeter strawberry notes fill the glass. Complexity is derived from some chocolate, licorice and roasted coffee along with the presence of gentle oak. The full bodied fruit forward palate is filled with the flavours of ripe red and black berries, perfectly encapsulated by the fine oak tannins that lead into the long finish.


Songlines Estates McLaren Vale Chardonnay 2016

Pale Straw in colour. Lovely aromas with alluring multi-dimensional layers, there are notes of lemon, lime and fig with touches of nuts and frangipani flowers. Pears, lime, lemon with beautifully balanced structured acid. There is a herbal edge with great length and loads of complexity which continue to develop with every glass.


Simon Hackett Hills View McLaren Vale Cabernet Sauvignon 2015

Medium bodied red with intense purple red colour. The nose has a top note of lifted confectionary sweetness. Fresh cherry, ripening strawberry with cassis backing. The palate is smooth and rich, it has good balance throughout with soft accessible tannins lightly dusting the sweet ripe blackberry dominated mid-palate. The American oak sits comfortably towards the back palate.


Normans Bin C169 McLaren Vale Pinot Noir 2018

This wine has a fragrant nose displaying lifted aromas of cherries and spice with some savoury notes. Wonderfully balanced pure palate, which is light with subtle texture of cherry supported by well-integrated fine tannins leading to a long elegant finish with hints of spice. An easy drinking styled Pinot Noir.


1838 Reserve McLaren Vale Grenache 2018

A bright crimson purple colour. Pretty, fresh and vibrant joven style with raspberry, black berry and some mulberries. Delicious upfront fruit flavours dominate. The wine delivers bright red berry fruits with a soft and silky mid-palate and finishes with elegant and juicy tannins.


Re Serve McLaren Vale Shiraz 2017

Deep garnet edge with a purple/black core. This is a blockbuster classic McLaren Vale Shiraz – It features blackberries, and some plum with complexity derived from notes of espresso, smoked meat, cassis and cedary oak a key note in its youth. Full bodied with big ripe fruit flavours accompanied by acid and tannins, which provides great concentration and balance. This wine should develop and evolve well but in its youth shows notes of white pepper, leather saddle, and smoked meats along with persistent oak which along with the tannin backbone ensures the finish is velvety smooth with enough grippiness that it stays with you and appears to go on and on.

Technical:

The Grail Of Lisa McLaren Vale Old Vines Shiraz 2017

Sourced from a small vineyard from a block aged 60 years plus. Small bunches ensured fruit purity and intensity, which is a key requirement for this wine. The fruit is picked and crushed into old vats where fermentation began via the addition of wild yeasts found on grape skins. Careful extraction and short post ferment maceration is followed by basket pressing. The wine under went malolactic fermentation in American oak and then was aged in the same oak with some skins added back to add further fruit character and ensure the fruit flavour was as intense as possible to ensure it was not over whelmed by oak but complimented by it. Bottled with minimal filtration or fining. 

A wine which will benefit immensely with time in the cellar to settle and develop. It will have a great lifespan of around 10 years.


Songlines Estates McLaren Vale Chardonnay 2016

Hand harvested from vineyards located in the Mediterranean grape growing region of McLaren Vale. The wine was crushed under controlled temperatures prior to being gently bag pressed to tank before being racked. Selected parcels then were matured in the finest of Burgundian oak prior to being bottled then aged in bottle for 6 months prior to release.


Simon Hackett Hills View McLaren Vale Cabernet Sauvignon 2015

The Simon Hackett story goes back well before the establishment of Simon Hackett  Wines. Four generations of the Hackett family followed agricultural pursuits in South Australia. In 1860, Simon’s great uncle attended the esteemed Roseworthy Agricultural College whilst Simon’s father was a graduate in the inaugural Oenology Course at the college in 1938.

Simon grew up in an atmosphere steeped in wine, spending his boyhood in the Barossa Valley alongside his father, who was General Manager and a Director of the giant Barossa Valley Distillery, Tarac International. The family home was situated next to the sprawling Saltram Winery outside Angaston. Given this environment, it was not surprising that Simon, at the age of eighteen, elected to follow a career in winemaking and joined the team at the neighbouring Saltram Winery.

Serving his apprenticeship under the watchful eye of master winemaker, Peter Lehmann, Simon progressed through the ‘Saltram ranks’. In 1970 he completed a vintage in the Hunter Valley Region of New South Wales, before returning to the Saltram Winery for another two years.

In 1973 Simon decided to move to McLaren Vale thus his association with the region began and continues today. Simon’s first vintage in McLaren Vale was at the Southern Vales Co-operative Winery, where he worked with the outstanding winemaking team of Grant Burge and Ian Wilson. After eight years he was appointed Senior Winemaker at Southern Vales Co-operative Winery, now known as Tatachilla Wines.

In 1984, Simon decided to leave Southern Vales Winery and concentrate fully on establishing his own boutique winery situated in McLaren Vale.

Once out on his own Simon quickly re-established his links with the Barossa Valley and now crushes grapes grown in McLaren Vale, Barossa Valley and the Adelaide Hills regions of South Australia at his own winery at the gateway to the McLaren Vale vineyards.

Today, Simon Hackett is a boutique wine maker in every sense of the word. He produces a selection of red and white wines under his own, very distinctive label. Having established his own company in late 1984, Simon’s dream was not to create an ‘empire’ but to remain small, producing limited stocks of wine each year for semi private use. Luckily for us he decided to launch the company as a full time project after only a few years. 

The Simon Hackett brand has gone from strength to strength and production is now around 20,000 cases per year. The last few years have seen Simon introduce a stunning limited release Sauvignon Blanc from the Adelaide Hills.

Simon’s winery, originally a disused cellar on a hill overlooking the beautiful McLaren Vale, is situated on the last rise as you enter the McLaren Vale region from Adelaide, easily visible and just off Budgens Road. The cellar door is light, bright and magnificently appointed with a long arched veranda looking out over the surrounding vineyards and countryside.


Normans Bin C169 McLaren Vale Pinot Noir 2018

Normans is one of the oldest and most respected names in Australian Winemaking. Since 1853, when Jesse Norman planted his first vines in Adelaide, Normans has developed a reputation for premium award winning wines. The Bin Range reflects the bin numbers at the Old Clarendon Winery where Normans have produced so many epic wines, with the company’s commitment To the tradition of fine wine making.


1838 Reserve McLaren Vale Grenache 2018

Fruit was sourced from 2 select growers in the McLaren Vale region of South Australia. The result is intensely flavoured wines due to the care and attention these growers give them. This wine was fermented warm and received pump overs during their fermentation. The wine is made in a joven style to ensure fruit purity is the hero here.


Re Serve McLaren Vale Shiraz 2017

The finest Shiraz parcels from McLaren Vale were selected for this epic wine. The soil is Bay of Biscay clay over limestone, which is generally considered tough growing conditions although when done correctly this type of soil can produce what is some of the very best Shiraz in the country. Hand picked, basket pressed, classically fermented with extended time on skins to draw out as much colour and fruit as humanly possible. The wine was aged in new American oak for an extended period prior to final blending and bottling with minimal filtration.
