2022 Releases are Sold Out - Here what's coming...
Posted by Brian Schmidt on 17th Nov 2024
Dear All-
As indicated, the amount of wines available in 2022 were tiny - and they sold out within 45 minutes or so of general release. So I am sorry for those of you who have missed out.
The good news is in 2023, we made a fair bit more wine (6 barrels) - all of it Maipenrai Pinot Noir - so we will once again be releasing wine in boxes of 6. The 2023 is the coolest year we ever had at Maipenrai, and we waited to get the fruit nice and ripe, even if we did pick it at the end of April. Scheduled to be released in October 2025
For 2024, we made another 6 barrels of Maipenrai Pinot Noir, 5 barrels of Amungula Creek Pinot sourced from a Lake George vineyard, and 3 barrels of Shiraz Viognier sourced from Murrumbateman and our own vineyard. Scheduled for release in May and October 2026.
