Story
The Adelaide Hills is fast becoming synonymous with high-quality Grüner Veltliner. We've taken this one step further and focused on two individual vineyard expressions of this sophisticated variety. The warmer of the two sites, the Springhill Vineyard in Macclesfield, sits at a slightly lower elevation, which shows in more overt character and a richer, fuller weight, enhanced by an element of skin fermentation and oak maturation.
We've been working with Grüner from the Springhill site for four vintages now, and we're smitten. With consistent flavours of almond, marzipan and quince, this vineyard is all about texture and generosity, giving a wine that's approachable yet incredibly complex, showing layer upon layer of curious Grüner character.
