This wine, Le Droit, is 50% Merlot, 42% Cabernet Franc and 8% Cabernet Sauvignon. The 2021 vintage in Geelong was cool and very long, making it exceptional for these varieties. Le Droit is characterised by a voluptuous palate of dark berry, licorice, and spice.
La Gauche is 68% Cabernet Sauvignon, 18% Merlot, 14% Cabernet Franc. The 2021 vintage was cool and very long, making it exceptional for these varieties. Le Gauche is characterized by cassis aromas with concentrated tannin & structure.
Earthy, savory, red fruits, and chalky tannins. Up here in the Moorabool Valley it gets the cooler environment it needs to produce the fragrant lusciousness that makes Cabernet Franc “the gardeners’ Cabernet”.

Grenache (60%) Morvedre & Syrah. Cool fermented in large open top wooden fermenters with wild yeast for 20 days. No maceration just gentle pigeage and hand plunging. Pressed off with pressings included, settled then transferred into 500L 2 year old French Oak puncheons for 11 months.
Hugo George is not often made but when it is, it’s an absolute delight. Savory notes of sour cherries, lavender, and plump, juicy Victoria Plumbs. The back palate has a woodfired, smokey finish with sweet spices and cured meat.
