Hundred Tree Hill, Shiraz

History    

Hundred Tree Hill wines are grown and made at Redbank in the Pyrenees region of South Eastern Australia. The unique combination of soil type, climate characteristics and cool climate viticulture produce low yield grapes of high intensity, colour and flavour in the classic Pyrenees style. The goal of the winemaker Robb Neill is to produce small batch, high quality, handmade wine.
