Sanguine Estate Awarded Top Prize

The Hunter family’s Sanguine Estate has taken out the premier Heathcote Wine Show Award – the Grand Terroir – for a second year.

The award was presented on Saturday night following two days of judging by a panel chaired by new Australian Grape and Wine Authority acting chairman, former Yalumba chief winemaker Brian Walsh.

Sanguine Estate had two of the three finalists in the Grand Terroir which judged for a wine’s quality, consistency and style across three shiraz wines spanning a minimum of four vintages for one singular wine label.

Other finalists were Sanguine’s winning 2013 Grand Terroir wine the Progeny Shiraz and Heathcote Estate’s Single Vineyard Shiraz.
