    • Description

      Red berries and dark cherry dominate the nose, firm mid palate tannins lead to pleasing acidity on the back. 

      All fruit is hand-picked in the morning and immediately de-stemmed with no crushing. In tank the fruit will have a small addition of sulphur. Some batches were left to cold soak for approximately 4-5 days, whilst others started fermentation immediately. Natural and cultured yeasts were used on different ferments. Pigage and delastage were used for cap management. Some ferments will undergo post maceration, depending on the tannin structure and the style of the wine. On completion of fermentation the wine was gently pressed and transferred to 30% new, 30% one year old and the balance in two and three year old oak, After 11 months of barrel maturation, the wine was assembled and bottled without filtration or fining.

    Hoddles Creek Estate

    Established in 1997 the D'Anna family decided to plant grapes on the property that has been in their family since 1960. Located between Gembrook road and adjacent Hoddles Creek in the Upper Yarra (a higher, cooler and more marginal climate than the lower Yarra) both vineyards are on steeply sloping blocks needing hand-pruning and harvesting. They're cropped at less than 2.5 tonnes per acre and being a marginal climate the vines requires extensive canopy management, this is achieved using the 'Scott-Henry trellis system' to promote fruit exposure.

    Viticulturist and winemaker Franco D'Anna cut his teeth at Coldstream Hills later consulting with Mario Marson (ex-winemaker for Mount Mary and Jasper Hill) where he took some valuable lessons. His philosophy on winemaking practises tend to be minimal - their wines all see a percentage of oak including the Sauvignon Blanc albeit old French.

    Hoddles Creek wines are single vineyard estate grown.
