Audrey Wilkinson is amongst the oldest vineyards in the Hunter Valley
and we don’t want to smother the classic regional spice and chocolate characters with too much oak
medium-bodied yet rich in flavour
ripe acidity and good cut from the freshening grape tannins
A short maturation period on lees during autumn helps to develop its flavours before being prepared for bottling
