The resulting blend benefits from varied fruit character and vineyard expression, while maintaining the fine tannin structure that is typical of the Ashton Hills style.

Lifted fresh raspberries, cherries and strawberries with a lovely hint of Indian spice and rosewater.

The mostly whole-bunch ferment gives this pinot its drive – savoury, spicy, red berry flavours, and a firm acidity that will ensure this wine continues to improve over the medium term.

The 2015 Syrah is a special wine delivered from the Adelaide Hills’ Longview vineyard – in a region with a strong reputation for producing great Shiraz.

Whole berries and some whole bunches (up to 40%) were put into a fermenter and left to sit. A slow, even fermentation – on skins for a month, then pressed off to French oak, with a portion treated to larger new oak.

The wine shows plums and layers of fruit and spice that gradually open up. Tannins from the whole bunches extend the palate, with a mouthfeel and flavour that continue long after the last sip.

Catlin Montepulciano 2015 (RRP $30 WM $26.90)

$24.90 $26.90

From my tastings of many “Monte’s” from around the world and Australia, it is deemed a good alternative to Shiraz. A variety that is very late in ripening and is as tough as they come. I like to drink Monte and hence I have wanted to make one for a long time. The vineyard is in the northern side of the Adelaide Hills. It is on a tough piece of dirt and yet it seems to survive and even laugh at this.  The grapes were slowly fermented and part of this batch was given extended time on skins.

Catlin ‘GB’s’ Rosé 2019 (RRP $20 WM $17.90)

$17.90

This Montepulciano Rosé was Seletiv Harvested in March from the Amadio vineyard in the Northern Adelaide Hills. It was left on skins to develop a pale colour and then pressed to large format French oak.  I was wild fermented and left in barrel for 7 months to develop texture and depth.

This one is for all the loyal Rosé drinkers out there; the ones who have always drunk it regardless of fashion. This wine was made with intent – not just a by-product or an after thought. Montepulciano grapes from the northern reaches of the Adelaide Hills were destemmed, gently pressed to barrel and left to begin a slow, wild ferment. A further 5 months in oak to develop intensity has resulted in a luscious strawberries and cream palate that’s just begging to be the life of the party. Grab it now before GB drinks the lot.

Deviation Road Altair Brut Rosé NV (RRP $38 WM $30.90)

$30.90

Tasting Note

This wine is made from a blend of Pinot Noir for its power and riper red fruit aromas and Chardonnay for citrus lift and finesse. We select the fruit from the cool south-facing slopes high in the Adelaide Hills. Sweet strawberry, cherry and spice aromas follow through to the palate, where the lively bubbles add lift and balance to these fruit flavours. This wine has wonderful length and supple mouth feel.

Winemaking

The fruit is all hand-picked and whole bunch pressed into tank for fermentation. A remaining parcel of Pinot Noir is fermented as red wine in open top fermenters with daily plunging. Fermentation lasts around 12 days and the wines go through malo-lactic ferment over winter to soften the acids. Blending then takes place, combining the clear base wine with around 4-7% of the red wine to achieve the pale pink colour and fruit lift that is signature of this wine. We tirage the wine by hand and store the bottles at 14` for a long consistent second ferment. Each bottle is riddled and hand disgorged on site in our Longwood winery. Small batches are disgorged at a time to allow the remaining bottles to continue ageing on lees as long as possible. The dosage liquor is crafted using a blend of base wines that have been aged for at least 12 months.

Vineyard

We source fruit from vineyards located high in the Lenswood district of the Adelaide Hills, where the vines have an average age of 25 years. These sites consistently produce outstanding Pinot Noir and Chardonnay for sparkling wine.

Dosage: 9 g/l
Alcohol: 12.5%
Cellar: Up to 5 years
