Australian high-altitude star (380-600 m) adjoining Barossa: signature Riesling as king white - dry, lively and racy with notes of lime, green apple, white flowers and signature chalky minerality, taut acidity and a long finish, ageing (10-20 years, kerosene evolution). Shiraz as king red (Hill of Grace) - elegant and spicy (blackberry, plum, pepper, eucalyptus). Cabernet, Chardonnay and Sémillon in support. GI (1997), varied ancient soils over granite, a cooler climate.
