Adelaide Hills Premium Wines:
07 season news:
Well here we are waiting for it to rain
again. The 07 season seemed to get off to a good start with
average rainfalls (at least for the Adelaide Hills anyway)
but at the beginning of Sept. we seem to be in the same
dry basket as the rest of the country. Good deep subsoil
moisture plays a big part in fruit quality and bit more
rain between now and November will help us sleep.
Farmers always whinge about the weather, and we said much
the same thing last year, however although the quantity
was down our fruit when crushed has rewarded us handsomely
with an intenseness that will perhaps rank 07 as a classic
year. Keep your eye on the bouncing bottle!

gig in Sydney. Speccy food and views. Enjoy the 7 even-course-tasting
menu designed for the enjoyment of the whole table.
(With a bottle of Goat Track or Section
19 of course!)
Wine Offers from the boss...
John Struik
Starting mid September to the end of
November if you ring me on 0418824287,
you can name your own 'fair' price on any of our current
selection. (The freight charge however may be adjusted!).
I ‘m doing our deals this way because I can never
remember what the offers are after being printed and also
I get to speak to someone with obvious class and good taste.
The Great Edinburgh Shiraz Challenge
for 2007 was a huge day. Over 700 attendees tasting a record
number of Shiraz only wines around 280 wines from all over
the country.
This event is capped off with a mixed dozen of the top 12
wines as voted by the educated 700 on the day and if you
need a Bendbrook 2005 Goat Track Shiraz, purchasing one
of these exclusive mixed dozens is one way of doing it.
Bendbrook Wines are a family owned and operated winery in
the scenic Adelaide Hills, at Macclesfield in South Australia
and we specialise in Premium South Australian Wines, particularly
Premium South Australian Red Wine from Single Vineyards.
Give our wines a try - we are sure you will be back for
more soon after!
