About the wine
Sam's silky, lip-smacking sipper is a world-class Australian white wine
- Sam’s rich and silky Australian white wine is steeped in bright, fresh, fruity flavors of ripe peach and apricot, backed by a delectable touch of citrusy orange blossom.
- With your support behind him, Sam sourced pristine grapes from a famous estate where the growers keep yields low, giving the fruit its big, bold, concentrated flavors. “I'm actually gobsmacked that we get access to this terrific fruit!” Sam says.
- This delicate sipper is made to be enjoyed on arrival, but Sam says you can also stash a few bottles away and open them over the next year or two to taste how the flavors gracefully evolve.
Best before
The wine will age well for 2-3 years, but Sam suggests enjoying it in the near term for the freshness and lovely primary fruit flavors it has now.
Serving advice
For best results, serve this white wine chilled at around 50ºF.
Food match
Viognier is a versatile wine that matches easily with seafood or chicken. Sam's personal favorite is seared scallops, he says. "Butter in the pan, salt and pepper, a minute or so to sear each side, then enjoy with a chugalug of Viognier!"

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Sam Plunkett
- Sam is one of our Australian All-Stars. He garnered lots of attention as the award-winning winemaker at Plunkett Fowles.
- But Plunkett Fowles hit rough waters and Sam wasn't sure he'd be able to stay in the wine business...until he became Angel funded. Angel support has put his startup on the map.
- Now Sam is off to the races, with the same dedication to quality winemaking that won so many accolades at Plunkett Fowles and none of the bother about sales or marketing.
