History
G7 stands for the 7th generation of the Scholz’s Family. In fact, this wine has been elaborated by Jack, Peter’s son. It gives the fruitness and the freshness of the type of wines that the new generation are now making.
This wine is sourced from a back block 2004 planting.
The soil is predominantly sandy loam over mottled red and yellow clay, strongly influenced by a vein of heavier textured ironstone.
Color
Vibrant rubis
Bouquet
The wine opens with lifted aromatics of raspberry, blackberry, violet florals and black pepper spice.
Palate

Lamb and game food
Cellering
