Pages Creek Chardonnay
Forget any preconceptions you may have about Chardonnay until you taste our fine Tasmanian expression. Chardonnay is the great white grape of Burgundy and Champagne. It is a hearty traveller capable of producing wines of quality and character in viticultural regions the world over. However it is in such a special cool growing location as Tasmania, with conditions similar to its home regions, that this noble variety really struts its supreme quality. Star bright appearance. The nose displays abundant stone fruits and citrus together with mineral notes and spicy French oak. The palate disp1ays varietal primary fruit characters of juicy peach and nectarine, sumptuous mouthfeel and layers of texture, with a spine of acidity running the length of the wine. It is perfectly balanced, harmonious and long. A classic Chardonnay, inspired by the traditional styles of French Chablis and Burgundy, that can be enjoyed both as an aperitif and with fresh seafood. It has the balance, texture, richness and zest to provide immediate enjoyment together with the structure to reward cellaring.

Pages Creek Pinot Noir
Pinot Noir is the sole grape of French red Burgundy, one of the world's most exquisite and sublime wine styles. It only reaches its full potential in a few other special cool climate regions around the globe, such as Tasmania. Selected Pinot Noir clones, 2051 and 8104, are planted in ancient soils that filled the valley millions of years ago. The fruit was de-stemmed, fermented and then matured in top quality French oak barrels. The nose shows varietal black cherry, red berries and plum with notes of forest floor and toasted oak. The palate displays typical Tasmanian pinot characters of black cherry and spice, hints of chocolate, and earth, good acid structure and balance, finishing with fine grained tannins. A vibrant, rich, smooth and seamless wine that captures Pinot Noir's magical capacity to interplay ripe, sweet primary fruit characters with spicy, savory, gamy, earthy elements. Enjoy with a multitude of food match ups, from specialty mushrooms, through quail and duck to brie and quince paste. This wine opens up with breathing, so uncork early or decant.

Pages Creek Cabernet Merlot
The blending of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot is a traditional marriage in the famous French region of Bordeaux, the home of these two very noble red grape varieties. This wine demonstrates the synergy that exists between these two varieties that produce the classic dry red style also known as 'claret'. Cabernet Sauvignon provides the framework and taut structure, Merlot gives succulent texture and fleshes out the middle palate. The Merlot from this single site vineyard is shaping up to be something very special, displaying great depth and richness. The Coal River Valley is one of Tasmania's premium wine growing regions that consistently fully ripens Cabernet Sauvignon, while at the same time retaining the classic cool climate varietal characters, of cassis and elegant herbaceous complexity, that make Bordeaux wines a world benchmark. The two varieties combine to create this sublime red that is the perfect partner for the finest cuts of lamb. Immediately appealing, it has the structure to reward cellaring.
