Tasting Notes Reference
Slapjack Creek Reserve Pinot Noir
: Made only in those years where the wine quality is superior. A deliciously full bodied wine, containing layers of complexity with well integrated oak, deep purple in colour and exuding flavours of black cherries, plums, and savoury mushrooms and bacon. It is seductively smooth, and lingers in the mouth.

Jackson Barry Pinot Noir: Deep purple in colour and displaying vibrant flavours of ripe cherries, black plums, and mushrooms laced with strong spicey oak. It is full and smooth in the mouth, with a long finish.

Nipple Hill: A well balanced, lighter style but well rounded wine. Matured in tank with some oak influence to suit the weight of the wine, it displays the delicious aromas and flavours of Pinot Noir without being heavy or over wooded. Named for the hill adjacent to the vineyard.

Summer Dreaming: This is a rose style Pinot Noir made especially for those gorgeous long summer evenings or to sip on a verandah at lunch. Red strawberry in colour it is dry and exudes soft Pinot Noir flavours and aromas.

Charcoal Joe Reserve Chardonnay: This wine is full bodied with melons and citrus on the nose and lovely integration of oak providing a mouth filling experience for the affectionado.

The Bannockburn Club Chardonnay: An un-oaked Chardonnay - displaying fresh and crisp stone fruit characters and offers delicious summer drinking. Try serving it with fish or chicken dishes and enjoy the unadulterate taste of real Chardonnay.

Tom Logan Pinot Gris 
Made in an off-dry style, this wine is rich and soft on the palate with pear and apple flavours with a rich minerally and lingering stonefruit finish.

Sauvignon Blanc
: A crisp, clean wine displaying gooseberry and tropical fruit flavours. It makes excellent summer drinking and is distinctively Alsace in style.

Riesling
: A classically crisp and dry wine, full of lime and lemon flavours that fill the mouth and linger. This wine is very European in style and whilst very tasty now, it will reward cellaring.

Gewurztraminer
: A sumptuous mouthfilling wine made in a dry style. The bouquet of rose petals, lychees and cloves gives a hint of what is to come; a concentrated mid palate and a long finish.

Annieburn Riesling
  [Sweet]
Displays citrus aromas with nectarines and stone fruit flavours. The natural fruit sweetnesscompliments the tangy finish, giving the wine length and elegance.

Robert The Bruce
: "A Bannockburn Red", is undoubtedly the owners folly; a blend of Pinotage, Cabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz grapes that are located on a hot, stony north west slope of the vineyard. It is classic Southern Rhone in style, dry and full with smooth aromas and flavours of mushrooms and cow byres. Made in minute volumes, it is very much, first come first served.

Desert Gold Late Harvest Riesling: Late harvest Riesling, the first vintage of 2000, was so delicious we were tempted to keep it all. The wine is light gold in colour and has the most stunning nose, full of tropical fruit and citrus. It exudes ripe pink grapefruit on the nose and the smooth mouth filling flavours follow, exactly as your first glimpse tells you they should. Another low volume speciality, this wine is superb already but will reward those who can keep it, for who knows how many years.

Autumn Gold Late Harvest Chardonnay
: Late harvest Chardonnay, first produced in 2002. The wine is light gold in colour and has a most amazing nose, full of stone fruit and liquid raisins. Another low volume speciality, this wine is superb already but will substantially reward those who can keep it.

Liquid Gold: Late harvest Gewurztraminer,
First produced in 2010, is a wine to die for! It is unctious and full of deliciously rich, but well balanced flavours of roses and mandarins. It is something beyond our expectations - if you don't love it we'll take whatever you haven't drunk back - even the open bottle!

Verjuice: Produced from green Chardonnay grapes harvested in early February, some two months prior to normal harvesting. This is a deliciously astringent cooking supplement. A cross between lemon and vinegar it is a wonderful ingredient in various dishes as well as for marinades, dressings or even reduced as a dessert accompaniment. Try it as mixer in your gin and tonic or use to dip your oysters in. It contains no alcohol.
