Rowlee’s vineyard was planted over 20 years ago by Nik and Deonne Samodol in the high-elevation (950m) cool climate of Orange. Their daughter, Nicole Samodol, and her partner James Manny ‘combine European wine growing heritage with New World practices. This is a Gold, 95pt Single Vineyard Fumé Blanc from Orange. Fumé Blanc means ‘smoked white’ – and suggests that the Sauvignon was at least in part exposed to oak to lend it a somewhat smoky flavour and greater texture. and a portion of this was fermented in French Oak. Shanteh Wale in The Halliday Wine Companion calls it: "poised and fruit-laden... moreish and decadent, bright and energetic" and gives it a whopping 95pts and a star for special value. Sam Kim praises its "... beautifully pitched acidity. Harmonious and structured..." and Jeni Port, Winepilot adds that it has: “…just enough cut and bite of acidity to finish with a real snap of freshness”. (Jeni Port, Winepilot).

Printhie Sauvignon Blanc is like passionfruit sorbet., wonderfully clean and precise. Has all the drive and intensity of the very best Marlborough Savvy but with added complexity and interest. Get in on the ground floor with this region and it's aromatic white as it is going places in a hurry.

The Philip Shaw No.11 Chardonnay is produced from high altitude vineyards in a region firmly claiming its rightful place at the table of great Chardonnay regions, Orange of NSW. A brilliant combination of flavours of citrus and honey dew and a great sense of minerality with a firm focus on low crops and supreme site selection.

Glowing green gold in colour, Carillion The Crystals Chardonnay displays aromas of lean fig and pineapple with a subtle layer of grilled cashew. Lean mineral complexity leads into fresh lime and grapefruit held up with hints of vanilla from quality French oak. Perfect for a summer picnic.

Established in 1996, Printhie has quickly garnered a repuation for quality cool climate wines, even picking up a 5 star rating from James Halliday. Pinot Gris is well suited here with luscious honeysuckle flavours balanced with bracing acidity. Textural mouthfeel adds to the mix of what is a wine to keep an eye on!

Printhie Chardonnay is a great example of what Orange has to offer beautiful aromas of citrus and stone fruit with a well balnced palate of fine acidity and subtle French oak.

If you want to try the benchmark in this style then look no further than Pierro. A clean and concentrated palate of lemon sherbet and gooseberry with a hint of oak influence. LTC stands for 'little touch of Chardonnay' which adds the right amount of palate weight and complexity.
