Chardonnay PinotNoir / Adelaide Hills / SouthAustralia
Hand picked bunches of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir are crushed into a selection of predominantly seasoned French oak barriques for vinification by Petaluma's own strains of yeast. Upon completion, batches are inoculated to a bacteria isolate for malolactic, adding complexity to the wine while softening the high natural acid. Components are then assembled and treated to a secondary fermentation in bottle. The finished Croser is aged on yeast lees for a minimum of three years before disgorgement, liqueur dosage and reseal.

Chardonnay PinotNoir / Adelaide Hills / SouthAustralia
Croser is only disgorged after ten years repose in bottle under the Petaluma wineworks, ensuring extended contact on yeast lees, which contributes to the extravagance and luxurious palate weight. Fashioned from elite parcels of fruit grown to the finest vineyards in Piccadilly Valley, Croser is at once bigger in colour and more intense in flavour, dominated by the ripe jonathon apple of Pinot Noir. Grapes grown to the cooler south and west facing slopes contribute impressive natural fruit acids which infuse the wine with exquisite flavours and dazzling aromas.

Riesling / Clare Valley / SouthAustralia
Crabtree is quite small, very much a boutique operation so far as production is concerned. The annual crush is a mere hundred tonnes, the tiny winery is at full capacity every vintage, and the wines are very limited in production. The cellar door is heritage listed and dates back to 1849 when the Clare Valley was first settled. Adolf Glaetzer was largely responsible for the planting of the vineyards as they exist today. Best known for his fresh fruit and vegetables, his descendants have made the Glaetzer name synonymous with Australian winemaking.
