Our 2022 Pinot Noir earned Silver Medal at the 2026 Sakura Wine Awards before a single bottle left the vineyard. Cool climate Pinot that rewards patience. We are giving this vintage the time it deserves. -
Meet "The Early One". Tempranillo takes its name from the Spanish word temprano, meaning early, because it ripens before every other red in the vineyard. The grape behind Rioja finds a fresh Australian voice in our cool climate single vineyard expression: medium-bodied, food-first and made for the table.
The Tempranillo was harvested at optimal ripeness, living up to its name as the first red off the vine, to capture the variety's bright fruit and natural spice.
This wine follows in the footsteps of our Gold Medal-winning 2021 Tempranillo, recognised in Tokyo at the Sakura Wine Awards alongside wines from Rioja and Bordeaux.
Crafted to let the variety speak for itself. The just-right red for those who find Shiraz too big and Pinot too light.
Tasting Notes
- Dark ruby red in the glass.
- Plum and spice on the nose.
- Rich plum and Mediterranean herbs on the palate.
- Succulent complexity and a soft, lingering tannin finish.

Two gold medals for the 2024 Semi-Dry Riesling Single Vineyard (Gold and 2026 Best Wine Pairing with Sushi) at the 2026 Sakura Wine Awards.

One of the most rare and exciting white wines we have produced. Arneis is an ancient Italian variety from the Piedmont hills, once nearly lost to history and still exceptionally uncommon in Australia. Grown at altitude in the cool-climate Southern Highlands, our single vineyard expression is aromatic, food-friendly and utterly distinctive.
The Arneis was harvested at optimal ripeness to preserve the variety's natural aromatics and freshness.
Grown on a single block at PepperGreen Estate, this wine reflects the unique terroir of Canyonleigh - altitude, cool nights and the conditions that give our whites their distinctive drive and character.
Crafted with minimal intervention to let the variety speak for itself. Unoaked and made to be enjoyed young while its florals are at their most expressive.
Tasting Notes
- Chiffon yellow in colour.
- Nose presents notes of delicate honeysuckle and white florals
- Fresh pear, white peach and subtle almond on the palate
