Blue Tree Project 💙

The Blue Tree Project is to help spark difficult conversations and encourage people to speak up when battling mental health concerns. By spreading the paint and spreading the message that “it’s OK to not be OK”, we can help break down the stigma that’s still largely attached to mental health.

Young Hugo Balnaves has been busy making some cattle tags, key rings and leather bracelets. With $5 from each sale going towards this worthy cause. If you would like to get a personal stamped one please get in touch with us and we can get Hugo onto it. 💙💙

2010 THE TALLY - RESERVE CABERNET SAUVIGNON Vint

2010 THE TALLY - RESERVE CABERNET SAUVIGNON

Vintage 2010 was cool with even ripening, and vintage on normal timing in late April. Sourced from our Dead Morris and Walker vineyards, all fruit was handpicked and 100% of the blend received a long maceration on skins. Maturation was for 19 months in new fine-grained chateau barriques from Seguin Moreau, Taransaud and Sylvain cooperages before light egg fining and bottling in December 2011, under Procork.

Deep rich red in colour, the nose is perfumed with perfectly ripened dark blackberry, liquorice and cassis fruit. The palate is firm, structured and tightly wound with coffee and milk chocolate characters adding to the dark fruit. The finish is long and textured with fine grainy grape tannins. An excellent Tally from an outstanding Coonawarra vintage.

2009 THE TALLY - RESERVE CABERNET SAUVIGNON Vint

2009 THE TALLY - RESERVE CABERNET SAUVIGNON

Vintage 2009 was hot pre-veraison in January, but then mild into autumn. The 2009 Tally was sourced entirely from a single parcel from our Dead Morris Vineyard, handpicked for the first time to select only the best bunches and all of the blend received a long maceration on skins for a period of 26 days. Maturation was for 16 months in new fine-grained Chateau barriques mostly from Taransaud and some from Seguin Moreau cooperages, before light egg fining and bottling in December 2010, under procork.

Deep rich red in colour, the nose is perfumed with perfectly ripened dark blackberry, elderberry and cassis fruit. The palate is particularly fine and elegant, with coffee and milk chocolate characters adding to the dark fruit. The finish is long and textured with fine grainy grape tannins. More delicate and refined, than previous Tally’s. Decant before drinking.

2008 THE TALLY - RESERVE CABERNET SAUVIGNON Vint

2008 THE TALLY - RESERVE CABERNET SAUVIGNON

Vintage 2008 was warm and early producing rich wines with ripe tannins. Sourced from our Dead Morris Vineyard (72%), Quarry Block (24%) and Dunstan vineyard (4%), with 76% of the blend receiving a long maceration on skins. Maturation was for 16 months in new fine-grained barrels from Sequin Moreau, and Sylvain cooperages, before light egg fining and bottling in December 2009, under procork.

Deep rich red in colour, the nose is perfumed with perfectly ripened dark blackberry and cassis fruit. The palate is tight and compact with dark fruit and some leathery fine-grained tannins. The finish is long and textured with fine grainy grape tannins. A richer warmer year with outstanding balance. Decant before drinking.

RED WINE ICE CREAM, this is going to be you want to save!!

Ingredients
1 bottle of red wine
3/4 cup brown sugar
2 cups pouring cream
1 vanilla bean
4 egg yolks
1 cup full cream milk

Method
Pour the entire bottle of wine into a large pot. Simmer over a medium heat until it reduces to 1 cup of liquid.

Set aside to cool. Whisk together the brown sugar, cream and milk in a medium saucepan. Cut vanilla bean in half and scrape out the seeds, then add them to the saucepan along with the emptied bean.

Cook over a medium heat stirring constantly, until the mixture begins to steam but not boil.

Meanwhile, in a stand mixer, beat egg yolks until thick and pale. Remove the empty vanilla bean pod from the cream and then very slowly pour it into the egg yolks whilst constantly whisking the mixture.

Return the mixture to the stove and place back over a medium heat. Stir constantly until the mixture thickens enough to coat the back of a wooden spoon. Remove from the heat. Then strain the mixture into a large bowl. Finally, stir in the reduced wine. Chill in the fridge for a couple of hours or until very cool, before pouring it into your home ice cream maker.

Serve your red wine ice cream freshly churned.
