Somewhere near the Seaview end of McLaren Vale's Chapel Hill Road, a perfunctory passerine perched her pincers astride a pair of power poles and saw herself alit. Down she went amongst the dry grown branches of an old Grenache vineyard, setting the valuable veterans ablaze. The scorched site eventually came to the attention of a winemaking trio, the Messrs Leske, Tynan & Cooke, Masters of Wine and a venerable vintner, all driven by a consuming passion to make greater Grenache. Thistledown vintage very small amounts of the most extraordinary Grenache. Beautifully detailed and conspicuously elegant, their floral bouquets and graceful finish emulate the aromatic..

Heirloom Vineyards were born of love. A romance between an esteemed wine judge and his protege, consumated by a shared passion to preserve the integrity of venerable old vineyards. A deference for the sanctity of the soil and adherence to the timeless procedures of organic viticulture, were an integral part of the vision. Their parching quest, to secure some grand old blocks of vine in the elder precincts of Adelaide Hills, Coonawarra, Barossa and Valley Eden, were followed by years of corrective husbandry, pencil label releases and bespoke vintages. The fostered old vines have now been resurrected, yielding treasured harvests of the most sublime new world.. Serenading sleeping vineyards to life»

Chardonnay Montrachet France
An assemblage of fruit from four elite parcels of vine, Le Trezin and Les Meix, Charmes and Les Corvees. The white wines of Puligny Montrachet are the most famous and widely acclaimed Chardonnay in the world. The quality of fruit is ultimately determined by microclimate and terroir, clays, siliceous sands and lime soils. The Domaine of Etienne Sauzet is made up of twenty six acres, much of it at the heart of the premier crus vineyards. Proprietor Gerard Boudot places a priority on keeping yields low, picking early and including only the finest grapes.
Gerard Boudot seeks maximum finesse and an individual expression of his vineyard. He applies state of the art technology to traditional vinification techniques to achieve some of the most highly sought white wines in all Burgundy. Although techniques are more modern in the hands of M. Boudot, he is maintaining Etienne Sauzet's tradition of ageing wines on lees for ten months to, as he calls it, nourish them. Parcels are fermented and aged nine or ten months in oak until racking into tank for a further two nonths elevage on fine lees. The wines are fined with isinglass and pre filtered with kieselguhr, or diatomaceous earth, followed by a final pass through a membrane filter before bottling.
Bright golden straw hue. Highly aromatic nose of preserved citrus pith and ripe stonefruits. A chalky, mineral lined palate with characters of grapefruit and peach set bagainst a backdrop of cornmeal, new fragrant grains and fruit skins before a long and memorable, piquant and polished finish.
