Australia - Wakefield Estate
Wakefield Estate, known as Taylor's
Wines at home, is Australia's leading family-owned winery.
Established in 1969 at Auburn in the Clare Valley, South Australia, Wakefield Estate is one of the most highly regarded and awarded Australian cool climate wine producers. Commitment to the preservation and promotion of regional identity provides the Wakefield wines with classic fruit definition, poised acidity and an enviable ability to age. Released only when ready to drink, Wakefield wines offer the consumer a rare opportunity to enjoy mature Australian wines.
Wakefield is unique in that all grapes are sourced from the 400 hectares of family-owned vineyards surrounding the winery, making this one of the largest single estate plantings in Australia. These vineyards provide the consistency necessary to make premium quality wines, which reflect the region's characteristics. From its entry level Promised Land to the core Estate range and on to the St Andrews limited range of hand-crafted wines from selected vineyard sites, Wakefield offers an excellent selection for all tastes and price points.

Colour: Bright straw with green hues. Nose: The wine shows obvious Clare Valley Chardonnay aromas of pineapple, peach, melon and citrus. These aromas are in harmony with the lifted Viognier aromas of apricot and spice. Palate: The wine has a round, luscious mouth filling palate. It has a myriad of fruit characters throughout the palate including citrus, melon, pineapple and apricot. There is also subtle cinnamon and nutmeg spice characters to the flavour. The wine is medium to full-bodied with soft tannins and a rich, almost creamy finish. |

Colour: Deep red with a slightly purple hue. Nose: This wine has a gorgeous lifted perfume. Blackberries, plums, liquorice and apricots are evident in the bouquet upon release. Underlying aromas of vanilla, dark chocolate, violets and cedar add to the complexity of the aroma. Palate: The palate delivers everything that the aromas promise. Juicy plums, blackberry liquorice and apricot flavours flow through to the mid palate. This is a well structured and balanced wine with fine tannins which persist well after the wine has been finished. |
