Comments and Tasting Notes:

Winemaker Stephen George has long been regarded as a early pioneer of the now well-established viticultural site, the Adelaide Hills. Stephen established his 3ha dry-grown Ashton Hills Vineyard in the Piccadilly Valley in the early 1980s and began producing its first wines in 1987. The style reflects the regionâ€™s strong similarity to Burgundy and production levels have stayed true to the boutique nature of the wineryâ€™s beginnings.

â€œfabulousâ€ 2001 Sparkling Shiraz

"I've just tasted five new release wines from Ashton Hills - and they're stunning. Included in this bunch was a fabulous new sparkling shiraz from the 2001 vintage, made from shiraz grapes grown on the Wendouree vineyard in the Clare Valley - to be frank, I like it more than most Wendouree wines themselves, and this wine is available to anyone (â€¦), rather than to just an (accidentally) exclusive mailing list. It's not the only wine in the range worth getting excited about. All these wines are made by Stephen George, arguably the most honourable man in Australian wine. "
