Winery/Brand: Retief Wines

 

Michelle says "I love the Retief wines, Lyn & Francoise are lovely people, and their wines have an elegance & purity. The alcohol is modest which allows the complex flavours to shine.

The aromas are rich and heady, lots of cherry and some savoury black pepper. The palate is also dominated by rich cherry, with a generous mid-palate of spicey aniseed and nice hint of tobacco. The finish is long, lingering and well balanced with subtle oak and fruit tannin

 

 

The Story

Nurtured by the Retief family since its establishment in 1997, the small Winbirra certified biodynamic vineyard is located S.E. of Wagga Wagga in Gundagai Wine Region’s beautiful Kyeamba Valley, where vines were first planted in the early 1840s. Produced from the organic grapevines nurtured sustainably here at Winbirra in harmony with biodynamic principles, allowing expression of natural seasonal characteristics, this wine is to be savoured and shared with good company - not only on special occasions.
