Background: |
Jubilee Vineyard Estate is a small family
owned business, nestled in the pictureque Hawkesbury
Valley, just over an hours drive from the centre of
Sydney. Named after an original vineyard planted by
the famous surgeon Dr Thomas Fiaschi, in the 1870s[sic],
the vineyard was re-established and planted with Chambourcin
(shom-bur-son) grapes.
Drought conditions and huge lightening strike helped
intensify the flavours and sugar levels of our Chambourcin
grapes for our 2005 Vintage. handpicked in the early
hours of the morning, the whole berries were pressed
off their skins, and cold fermented by lunchtime. |
Tasting Notes: |
The resulting wine is a fresh, youthful,
sweet mix of berry flavours with a crisp lingering finish.
the nose offers lifted raspberry and strawberry jam
charactistics, with a hint of spicy cinnamon.
Complements a wide variety of meals, especially seafood,
chicken, and asian style cuisine.
Serve chilled. Should be consumed without extended cellaring
to maximise freshness.
We have chosen quality screw closures to maintain the
integrity of the wine. |
