Luke Lambert New Releases Offer
We have pleasure in offering the exciting new reserve wines from Luke Lambert. We have been a keen follower of Luke’s wines for three years. He makes high quality wines in tiny quantities. Both reserve wines are produced with rigorous vine selection and represent the very best of their respective blocks, carrying greater refinement and elegance that requires extended decanter time.

2007 Luke Lambert Reserve Syrah Yarra Valley
Shelf Price $75.00 Offer Price $63.00
Sourced from the crest of the hill in the St. Andrews block where the rocky soils produce wines of greater elegance and finesse. Only the best bunches from the healthiest vines were selected. Hand sorted in the winery before wild yeast fermentation with 100% whole bunches included. Held on skins for 8 weeks before pressing and maturation in old French oak. Bottled without fining or filtration. A perfumed, feminine Syrah. Match with duck confit. 55 Dozen produced

2007 Luke Lambert Reserve Nebbiolo Heathcote
Shelf Price $75 Offer Price $63.00
Strict bunch sorting followed by wild yeast fermentation with extended maceration (75 days on skins) before gentle pressing. The 2007 Reserve Nebbiolo was matured in an old, French oak puncheon for 18 months, before bottling without fining or filtration, and a further 6 months in bottle prior to release. This wine needs extended decanter time to open up (5-7 hours). Match with sauteed pine mushrooms and tajarin.
