We selectively picked from our 0.8 ha single vineyard, separating low yielding vines to go into this wine. The grapes were de-stemmed and fermented in a single small fermenter and pressed once the sugar had been depleted. We wanted the fruit of the grape to shine so maturation was in older oak to gain complexity but not detract from the primary fruit. Mourvèdre is grown widely in southern France and in Spain (where it is known as Monastrel). Along with Grenache it is typically one of the last grape varieties to ripen in our McLaren Vale vineyard.

About Richard Hamilton wines

Richard Hamilton Wines are reflective of the distinctive McLaren Vale region with its Mediterranean climate producing great value, fruit driven wines. The Hamilton family have been involved in winemaking and grape growing for five generations. Dr Richard Hamilton now continues his family’s long tradition of involvement in the wine industry.

The McLaren Vale vineyards are some of the oldest vines in the region. The vineyard that produces the Centurion Old Vines Shiraz was established in 1892. Grenache vines dating back to 1947 were planted by Richard’s father, Burton Hamilton, at Burton’s Vineyard. Shiraz was planted in 1963 and Cabernet Sauvignon in 1968. The Richard Hamilton range sources premium white wine varieties from the cool climate Adelaide Hills.

Richard Hamilton are great value wines from vineyards which consistently produce wines of award-winning quality.
