La Petite Côte is a 100% Viognier from muscovite granite soils located in the centre of the Condrieu appellation. Benefiting from a south / south-east exposure on terraces, it is hand harvested before being aged in Burgundy barrels and blended from different plots before bottling to obtain a wonderful complexity. Aromas of apricot, quince, peach and citrus fruits, a full bodied palate with a touch of sweetness from the honey notes, La Petite Côte is a benchmark for Condrieu, and a wine everyone

It is rich and sumptuous, with creme anglaise, pineapple, butter and delicate wood character. Intense, with a sustained, flavoursome finish. The wine's story makes it even more fascinating. When visiting friends in Zurich, Martin Meinert was introduced to a white wine made with Merlot grapes from Ticino - the southern, Italian, part of Switzerland. He loved it so much that he resolv

91 Points - The Wine Front. Grown at the base of the Christmas Hills on the western of Yarra Glen, the Homestead vineyard has an expansive easterly exposure with a degree of protection from the westerly heat and hot northerly winds. This little subregion grows wine with the full and rich expression of the Yarra Valley floor with a restraint that the more exposed hillsides don’t afford. Pale straw yellow with a restrained youthful nose, quietly complex. Poached pear, freshly cut quince, jasmine b
