The wine is pale yellow with a youthful green hue. On the nose, there are aromas of citrus, peach & white flowers with a hint of lifted spice. The finely-structured, lemon-tinged Semillon supports the soft floral aromatics of Muscat & the delicate spice of Gewrztraminer. The Pinot Gris provides texture & mouthfeel to the mid-palate & the finish is crisp & fresh. ...

Still very lively & fresh showing good citrus notes also hints of macadamia nut characters & beginnings of a light smokiness as a consequence of bottle development. Still a remarkably tight, zesty & youthful wine with a superb structure & length. Time in the bottle has deepened the lime citrus & honey dew fruit flavours which fill out the mouth while finishing clean & dry. With careful cellaring, this wine will continue to develop in the bottle for a further ten years. It is very food friendly wine & is a superb accompaniment to fuller flavoured sea food dishes, asparagus & is one of the rare wines which pairs well with fresh tomato soup! The grapes are picked early & fermented cold in stainless steel tanks. Following a 2 week fermentation period, the wine is clarified & bottled immediately before being cellared at the winery. ...

Beautifully deep in colour with a persistent fine bead. The bouquet shows hints of satsuma, plum & black cherry leading to an explosion of dark exotic fruits on the palate. A very special sparkling red for times of celebration. Intensely flavoured Shiraz grapes from old, low-yielding vines create this wine inspired by the groundbreaking Sparkling Burgundy of the 1950s one of Australias unique contributions to the wine world, named after the Queen of Sheba. ...

The Barossa Valley, with its warm lingering summers, is a natural home for the noble rot, Botrytis Cinera. What can be a grapegrowers curse is masterfully crafted in this luscious wine that shows the beauty & diversity of the Semillon grape. The history of this wine dates back to winemaker Andrew Wigan's visit to the iconic Chateau d' Yquem in 1981, home to the world's greatest sweet wine. His time in their vineyards & winery inspired him to recreate the style in the Barossa. A beautiful bright gold colour which will deepen with bottle age. It has wonderful tropical fruit aromas with just a hint of citrus. It is a truly harmonious wine with a delicious lusciousness on the middle palate counterbalanced by tantalizingly complex acidity, the hallmark of botrytis wine. With creamy blue vein or washed rind cheeses. A delicious accompaniment for fruit flans, warm winter puddings & great with scrambled eggs for a luxurious brunch. Can be cellared for 20 plus years. ...

Eight Songs Shiraz was born of our love of art & music & inspired by an operatic work, ' Eight Songs for Mad King', first performed in the Barossa in 1993. The Barossa stands amongst the great wine regions of the world. From this region, Shiraz can express diversity in flavour, style & texture. The diverse terroir of our growers' Barossa vineyards is reflected in the character of our wines. Soils, elevations & vine age vary from one vineyard to the next. The heart of Eight Songs lies in the old Shiraz vineyards spread across the landscape of the Barossa. During the vintage, we walk these vineyards, which typically yield less than 2.5 tonnes per acre, tasting the fruit, seeking the concentrated flavours we need for this style of Shiraz. With Eight Songs we show an elegant & distinctly softer side to Barossa Shiraz. Fermented & matured in 100% new French oak hogsheads the palate shows dark plums, choc/ mocha notes with hints of vanillin undertones. The seamless integration of opulent fruit & velvety tannins creates an elegant expression of Barossa Shiraz at its sensuous best. A densely coloured shiraz showing hints of dark chocolate & black fruits. The palate is rich & soft, finishing with very fine tannins in the Eight Songs tradition. While drinking beautifully now, this wine can be cellared with complete confidence for a few more years as desired & it is recommended that the wine be carefully decanted 2-3 hours before serving, to allow it to open up. Eight Songs Shiraz sings with rare roast beef, rich casseroles, beef & game pies, & of course, a great aged cheddar. ...

Andrew Wigan, Chief Winemakers notes: Colour is vibrant lemon with a green tinge. The bouquet shows classical Eden Valley lime juice characters a nd hints of freshly baked bread & honey which is a characteristic of bottle development. The palate is pristine & finishes dry with zesty minerality. While already showing excellent development from five years in the bottle, the wine will continue to gather richness & complexity with another 5-10 years of careful storage in a cool area. ...
