A white Port from Verdelho, Semillon and Chardonnay. The name was inspired by J R R Tolkiens reference to "pale enchanted gold" to be discovered in "dungeons deep and caverns old". Luscious.
Gold Medal 2009 Perth Royal Show. Alas for Port �cut off in your prime. Abandoned for wines of weaker constitution and narrower profile by an ignorant and pagan youth. Your name is lost your history forgotten. In memory then, of your flamboyant and heroic past we present this replica � and baptise it ... Fortis �the strong. Rich, smooth and mouth filling Fortis is a satisfying drop made from three classic port varieties: Touriga, Tinta Cao and Souzao. 500ml only
Intensely purple – a clear indication the wine has escaped the harmful effects of oxidation despite the absence of the antioxidant sulphur dioxide. Fresh and clean with cherry and dark fruit characters combining with some attractive charry oak. Young and fresh with intense berry fruit flavours and savoury confectionary notes. The oak is apparent but the fruit easily matches it. A testament to careful winemaking
This offering of Preservative Free White is produced exclusively from Chardonnay. The winemaking is complex and requires great care but the result is a style that we are proud to promote to all drinkers, not only those that have acquired an allergy to Sulphur Dioxide.
A Happs Original. Often imitated, never bettered. Generously aromatic and spritzig, salmon pink maturing to a light onion skin colour with age. The wine has a perfumed aroma akin to Roses, Lychees and tropical fruits. It owes its character to classic red grape varieties grown in a favourable environment... A quite delicious balance between berry flavours, soft acidity, some sweetness and the inevitable slight astringency that is to be expected from red grape varieties. The entirely natural effervescence cleanses the palate and lifts the aromas. Full flavoured, soft vibrant and fruity and very,very popular.
An experimental style based wholly upon Brown Muscat which exhibits to the full its marvellous sugar bound aromatic flavours that disappear in a completely dry wine. This wine is quite sweet and should be served cold.
