Located in the upper Yarra Valley on the boundary of Woori Yallock and Hoddles Creek, Lone Star vineyards was established in 1997. Grape production is sold to a number of renowned Yarra Valley winemakers with the 2017 vintage being the first commercial release under their own label. Hoddles Creek’s Franco D’Anna is in charge of winemaking.
Semi translucent bright dark red colour with a light crimson red hue. Fragrant violet led scents of ripe cherry and strawberries are trailed by hints of anise, light forest floor and spicy herb notes. Light but delicious the palate is flooded with succulent cherry and strawberry fruits which have a supple feel underpinned by anise, earthy forest floor characters, infusions of dried herbs and spice. Silky smooth tannins. Excellent power wave finishing with plenty of vibrancy and a long moreish aftertaste. Another delicious offering from Lone Star Creek.
