Jane and Peter Thompson purchased the Thompson Estate property in 1994, and the first plantings of chardonnay and pinot were in 1997, followed by the cabernet plantings in 1998. New plantings include new Burgundian clones of chardonnay, a total of 20 hectares under vine. From the outset at Thompson Estate, the focus has been on high quality wine production and this has been recognized in a large number of wine show medals and accolades from the wine press. The most treasured has been the recognition by James Halliday, Australia's premier wine critic, that Thompson Estate is a Five Red Star winery, placing it in the top echelon of Australian wineries.
Tasting Notes
Fresh fragrant array of red berry, raspberry and forest fruits upfront with delicate clove spice aromas. Fine blackberry and violets with a subtle mint adds extra layers of complexity. Medium to full bodied wine with elegant, well integrated red berry and black currant fruit fill the palate followed by a succulent, fleshy but firm tannin structure. Juicy flavors persist endlessly with a hint of dark chocolate and savoury spice on the finish.
