Winery Story

Pretty Sally Estate was established in 1996 with a single mission: to produce world class wines that over-deliver. Its commitment to excelle... (more...)nce begins in the vineyard, as only exceptional grapes can produce great wines. Its focus is on detailed vineyard management coupled with expert winemaking. The location of their vineyard, 40 miles north of Melbourne in Central Victoria, was selected for its ideal soil and climatic conditions. its winemaking philosophy is one of minimal intervention, enabling the process to follow its natural course. John Ellis, Pretty Sally's winemaker, insists that the flavors be in the fruit in the first place. Nothing is added to affect flavors other than traditional fermentation and oak aging techniques.

Tasting Note

The Estate Cabernet Shiraz blend offers the finest expression of Pretty Sally's single vineyard Cabernet and Shiraz fruit. Aromas of dark fr... (more...)uit and spice give way to a pallet that is richly textured, offering layers of plum, black currant, and baking spices with shades of pepper and cumin. The tannins are well integrated and the acid moderate, providing lift to this full-bodied blend. To complete the package, the wine finishes with dark fruit and exotic spice.
