"Using minimal intervention and traditional winemaking techniques, learned during our more than 20 years making wine in France, Portugal and Australia, we craft wines that allow provenance and vintage to shine." Dominic & Krystina Morris
THE 'SPECIAL RELEASE' LABEL
We introduced the ‘Special Release’ label into our range so that we could release as an individual wine any parcel of wine that really ‘stood out from the crowd’ during the winemaking process. This may not happen every year and it may not always be the same variety. We are extremely proud to present our Special Release wines as they represent the best of the season and are unique to each vintage year.
PONDALOWIE
The Pondalowie label represents wines made using minimal intervention & traditional winemaking techniques. By hand maintaining our own vineyards, and using fruit sourced from premium grape growers in Heathcote and the Barossa, with whom we've associated for over 20 years, we are able to achieve the specific wine styles, blends and premium quality we desired such that many wines such as the ‘Vineyard Blend’ and ‘Special Release’ wines are initiated while the grapes are still on the vine. Every parcel is hand selected in the vineyard and minimally handled in the winery, ensuring the wines sing of their variety, region and the season in which they were made.
PINGA
The Pinga wine label was created to allow us to source small parcels of interesting grapes from independent and/or alternative variety grape growers in the Heathcote and Central Victorian wine regions, however due to changes in the ownership and management of these source vineyards, this project has been discontinued.
