Quality Wine - Outback Gold
Wine Henry Pike emigrated from England and established a brewery in Oakbank in the Adelaide Hills in 1886. It took the family almost 100 years to set up their own winery but it was worth the wait! The estate is in the Polish Hill River sub-region of the Clare Valley (north of Adelaide) where the relatively cool climate makes forfresh well balanced wines - a great destination for stylish elegant Aussies.2008 Riesling A Clare Valley classic - clean with lime grapefruit and lemon fruit but it’s the slateyminerality that really marks this wine out. Riesling at its racy best!With great foresight Ian Hollick purchased 22 hectares of prime ‘terra rossa’ land in 1974 and planting began a year later with Riesling and Cabernet Sauvignon. In 1984 Ian established the Hollick Winery and almost immediately began lifting trophies. The estate now measures over 100 hectares in size since the purchase of the Wilgha property. Ian is fiercely independent loves life and refuses to make wines that are overblown or dull which is great news for wine-lovers like myself who prefer to drink a bottle with dinner rather than be served a glass of soup-like Cabernet.2004 Cabernet SauvignonThe Cabernet has wonderful complexity with mint cassis and black fruits food friendly tannins and balanced acidity. A Coonawarra classic. Store Price£42.99 Visit Store
