“Owner and winemaker Alex McKay makes exquisitely detailed wines, bending to the dictates of inclement weather on his doorstep, heading elsewhere if need be.  His wines are consistently excellent, their elegance appropriate for their maker.”  James Halliday

Having grown up in the area, Alex got his first taste of winemaking with Edgar Riek, a pioneer of the Canberra District at Lake George. But it was working as winemaker for Hardys’ flagship winery in the district from 2000 that really developed his intimate knowledge of the region, climate, soils and vineyards.

The wine is fresh on the nose with aromas of mandarin, cherry, rose-water  and spice.  The palate is crisp, with moreish mid-palate texture and mouth-watering acidity.  Great for seasonal drinking with antipasti!
