Treasury Wine Estates has installed a $1 million nylon canopy to protect luxury grapes at the Penfolds Koonunga Hill Vineyard in the Barossa Valley. Anthony Catanzariti is in the high-vis. @penfolds #Barossa #BarossaValley #KoonungaHill #luxury #climatechange #wine #canopy #1million #protection #V24 #KoonungaHill Full story on the WBM site.
Something happened in a quiet moment over the deli counter at Frewville Foodland. Tim White reports on a chance encounter - and a determination to get to the bottom of a great story - in the March-April issue of WBM - Australia’s Wine Business Magazine. @yalumbawine @timwhiteeatsanddrinks #TheSignature #Yalumba #175years #wine
Dalrymple Estate Vineyard Pipers River Chardonnay 2021 scores 94 points from Tyson Stelzer. “The cool and classic 2021 season in Pipers River is beautifully articulated here in Chardonnay that strikes a seamless balance between impeccable ripeness and tension. Classic white peach and lemon are the themes here, with just the right nuances of butter, biscuit and spice from fermentation, bâtonnage and malolactic fermentation in a mix of new and older French oak puncheons and a 700L ceramic egg. Outstanding persistence and medium-term potential.” $52. @dalrymplevineyards #PipersRiver #Tasmania #wine

De Beaurepaire Richard Central Ranges Pinot Noir 2021 scores 92 points from Mike Bennie in WBM. “A potent, dry, robust Pinot Noir, but still manages to offer up good cherry fruitiness, mushroom/truffle notes, some undergrowth and brambles and a bit of game meat too. Savoury style, bold in a way, and well judged for those seeking Pinot with a bit of muscular appeal.” $75. @debeaurepairewines #CentralRanges #PinotNoir #savoury #cherry #mushroom #wine
