Winemaker Notes
Brilliant clear gold in color. Lifted, complex white peach, grapefruit and orange blossom, balanced with barrel fermented characters. Restrained yet intense on the palate. Underlying complexity with soft, creamy, rich and full flavor. Lifted summer stone fruit, and the delicate richness of oak influences. Long elegant natural acid that sets up a seemingly endless clean dry finish.
In 2003 Philip jumped off the corporate train to fulfill his family dream. For the original 'square peg in a round hole', Philip has found his winemaking home and is realizing his family dream at Koomooloo. "I always said that when I turned 40, I was going to do my own thing - with family and friends - in Orange. One thing led to another and 15 years later, I'm finally doing it."
Philip has been making wine in Australia for more than 4 decades and approaches each aspect of winemaking with a healthy mix of innovation and unrelenting quality standards. He steps out with conviction and carves his own way, a new way, time and time again. He has pioneered dozens of popular Australian wines during his career and is renowned for his commitment to advancing Australian wines through relentless testing of varietal and clonal suitability for optimum site selection, winemaking innovation, and ultimately, crafting modern, vibrant, and high-quality wines.
