ceo’s message
The Association of Australian Boutique Winemakers created a national body for the ‘small winemakers’ during 1996. The AABW was launched with the first round of awards and a public wine festival held at the Renaissance Sydney Hotel to a successful reception from winemakers and public alike. Prior to this time the Australian wine shows were not open to small winemakers simply because the rules stated large quantity requirements for entries. The experimenters, the small risk takers with the innovative blends and imported varieties were unable to win the gold, silver or bronze. When the ‘boutique’ wine movement was born this all changed. The little companies in the outback and on the tourist trails started displaying their trophies and medals for the first time because they could enter their wine even if they only had a very small quantity. With a few medals they could convince the city agents to sell their wine and make their efforts known. For the 2000 Boutique Wine Awards, Dan Murphy’s Fine Wines entered the scene with a commercial offer to the winners of the top 18 classes. Today sees many wine companies listed in their fine wines catalogue because of their win resulting in otherwise impossible sales. As part of this arrangement the winner of the Wine of Show receives a 100 dozen purchase which to some has been a life-saving gift. New Zealand boutique winemakers were invited to join our show in 2009 and have successfully taken home a number of trophies and medals in that time. Our Association is all about promoting the wines of excellence as determined by our judging teams. Thanks to the Awards Chairman Huon Hooke the standard of judges and the process of judging is at the highest. Hooke is respected as equal to the best in his field and with that comes respect for our awards. The AABW is proud of its record and its achievements and continues to spread the word Boutique through this show and the marketing of the winning wines throughout Australia, New Zealand and Asia.

chairman‘s message
Most of the wineries in Australia and New Zealand are boutique wineries. By our definition, that means they crush no more than 250 tonnes of grapes per year for their own label. According to the current Australian and New Zealand Wine Industry Directory, precisely 2,003 of the 2,477 wine producing entities in Australia (81%) fit that category. In New Zealand the figure is 74%. These figures expose the lie perpetuated by those with vested interests in far-off countries that Australia is the home of industrial wine churned out by huge, refinery-like wineries. Why dedicate a wine show expressly to boutique winemakers? Almost all wine companies, regardless of present size, began as boutiques. Nobody is pretending that all of the best wines of these two countries come from small wineries. Some of them undoubtedly do. But because of their lower economies of scale and lack of marketing clout, boutiques are at a disadvantage compared to larger entities. They are also disadvantaged by the minimum volume requirements for entry into some of the classes of the larger wine competitions. Our show has no such limits. Small wineries, often driven by the energy of a single passionate, determined, energetic, visionary individual are the powerhouse of creativity and originality in wine. They conceive ideas that others later imitate. We celebrate the dynamic boutique wineries of these two great countries and applaud their fine wines.

The Association of Australian Boutique Winemakers offers sales and marketing rewards to the winners of the 18 classes. All of the winning producers receive an offer of a listing to Dan Murphy’s Fine Wines for their winning wine. The initial purchase is five-dozen, which gives the wine the chance to prove its commercial viability. The Dan Murphy’s Wine of Show receives a 100 dozen order in recognition of its success. A selection of the wines is sent to Singapore for a marketing initiative planned by us and the Australian and New Zealand Association for a master class and wine lovers’ dinner. These events are held on the penthouse floor of Raffles Land Tower in central Singapore. It is anticipated that this will be an annual event for the promotion of export for boutique wines into Asia.
MEYER GOURMET FOODS
Further to this aim, the Wine of Show will be featured at a master class and degustation dinner at the beautiful Langham Yangtze Boutique Hotel in Shanghai in November.

Philip Shaw: Winemaker
bug and saffron risotto
Philip Shaw, formerly the head of Production/Winemaking for both Rosemount and Southcorp Wines, is one of the world’s leading winemakers. He has twice won the coveted Winemaker of the Year award at the London International Wine and Spirit Competition, in 1986 and 2000. He was also the 1999 Qantas/Gourmet Traveler Wine Magazine’s Australian Winemaker of the Year and was awarded the 2000 Graham Gregory Trophy for his outstanding contribution to the Australian wine industry. Born in Adelaide, South Australia, Philip began making wine when he was 12 years old, using the bathtub and lemonade bottles! At 15 years of age, he began working in wineries in the Adelaide area, notably at Penfold’s and Wynn’s Magill. After graduating from Roseworthy, Philip assumed the role of head winemaker with Lindeman’s Karadoc in 1972 at the age of 24. He then

became Rosemount Estate’s winemaker in 1982 and was instrumental in Rosemount’s extraordinary success around the world. Following the merger between Rosemount and Southcorp Wines, Philip was group winemaker for Southcorp Wines from the 2001 to 2003 vintages. During his time at Rosemount, Philip established his own vineyard in Orange in 1988 after years of searching Australia for the best site to make exceptional wines with flavour and finesse. The opportunity to pioneer an area also appealed and Philip’s belief in the region has been backed by numerous international awards. For example, the 1997 Rosemount Orange Vineyard Chardonnay, made by Philip from his own vineyard, won the 1999 Prix D’Excellence at Vin Expo in Bordeaux. In 2003, Philip began working full time in the Orange district, firmly believing that it has great potential to become a leading Australian Wine Region.

BROKENBACK VINEYARD & LEOGATE ESTATE WINES Brokenback Vineyard, situated on Broke Road at the heart of Pokolbin in the Hunter Valley, was owned, planted, and operated by Rothbury Estate from the mid 1970’s under the vision of the late, renown, Len Evans. Over the ensuing years the high quality of the vines has produced super-premium wines which have been sold under a variety of labels. When Bill and Vicki Widin purchased Brokenback Vineyard early in 2008 the vineyard had been split into two separately-owned portions, both of which became available for sale privately, due to adverse changes in the economy. The reconstituted Brokenback Vineyard has some 50ha (125 acres) under vine, comprising irrigated Chardonnay and Semillon vines on ancient graveled creek-beds, as well as irrigated and dry-land Shiraz vines on the eastern and western sides of the adjacent hill. . During autumn and winter of 2008 a great deal of renovation work was carried out on the posts and vine trellises which benefitted the vines and subsequent vintage. The February-March, 2009 harvest at Brokenback Vineyard produced 259 tonnes. All three grape varieties were sought after keenly by other winemakers but a core selection of 110 tonnes was retained for the initial single-vineyard vintage, including 12 tonnes of Shiraz grapes hand-picked from the dry-land vines. The initial range of wines being made include the following: • Chardonnay (oaked and unoaked) • Reserve Chardonnay (from a block known as H10) • Sparkling Chardonnay • Semillon • Sparkling Semillon • Semillon/Chardonnay • Shiraz • Reserve Shiraz (being the hand-picked Shiraz) • Sparkling Shiraz Planning is advanced for major construction works at the vineyard, including a Cellar Door and a new Winery. The main Broke Road entrance shall be dominated by large iron gates, each featuring a lion rampant – hence the wine name and label: “LEOGATE ESTATE WINES”

Mark Woods, Winemaker at Leogate Estate.
Our highly regarded wines are a tribute to a great vineyard site and our passionate winemakers. With its gentle well-drained slopes and prime north easterly orientation, the property is ideally suited to the cultivation of premium quality grapes. The low cropped fruit from this exceptional site is then put into the hands of the best winemakers for the particular varietal. The skill and experience of these individual winemakers, together with the outstanding fruit, subtly comes into play with each wine.

How Do You Create A Trophy Winning Riesling? Firstly, it helps if the fruit comes from a wine region that owing to its unique terroir, consistently produces Australia’s finest Riesling. The Watervale region in South Australia’s Clare Valley, with its terra rossa soils and Mediterranean climate, is renowned for producing classic, dry Riesling, with stunning citrus flavours that linger on the palate. Secondly, you need a skilled winemaker who is passionate about Riesling and understands what it takes to get the best out of this noble wine variety. Tim Gramp is one such winemaker. Originally known for the outstanding success of his very first vintage, the 1991 Tim Gramp McLaren Vale Shiraz, (1 trophy, and 6 gold medals including gold at the 1993 Intervin International Wine Show in New York City), Tim has continued to produce award winning Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon and Grenache wines. However, Tim has also proven himself to be a pretty handy white winemaker, with his 2005 Watervale Riesling winning gold at the 2005 Hyatt National Riesling Challenge in Canberra. The trophy in this year’s Boutique Wine Awards for the 2010 Tim Gramp Watervale Riesling comes on the back of its silver medal success at the recent London International Wine Show. Finally, trophy winning Rieslings are created with sharing and enjoyment in mind…either as a fresh, vibrant young wine or as an enticing aged beauty. Come and enjoy the 2010 Tim Gramp Watervale Riesling at our cellar door when next in the Clare Valley, or order online today via our website at www.timgrampwines.com.au

Seldom is not just another wine on the shelf , it is a wine of passion and simplicity. The winemaker has a theory that a wine can finds its own way through a sea of expensive marketing, overseas investment, fancy packaging and false impressions of idealist life.

Thomas Vineyard Estate is a family-owned company which was personally built and operated by the proprietors Merv and Dawne Thomas who are passionate about producing a wine which is a full-bodied red wine. We produce two very elegant Shiraz wines which have been crafted from fruit grown in one of McLaren Vale’s premier vineyards. More interestingly our wines have been made from single vineyard estate grown fruit. Our winemaker made the decision not to follow methods commonly used in the industry by blending fruit. A sensible move? We think so! But we would like you to be the judge. Merv and Dawne Thomas Thomas Vineyard Estate

Smallwaters Estate In this little known corner of Western Australia’s south west, which is proving to be one of Australia’s most reliable wine growing areas, this boutique vineyard evolved from a dream to grow and market marron into a contract wine growing yard which then saw the potential of its superior Zinfandel grape as its premium flagship wine. Against all knowledgeable advice John believed that this variety had enormous potential in the Geographe region and sourced the wood to begin this journey. Along with his trademark “Zin”, quality Chardonnay and Shiraz were all planted in 1993 and the Major Award Winning Cabernet Sauvignon Rob’s Block in 1996 so named as this was the pet block of John’s late wife Robyn. The property, overlooking the expansive dams and marron ponds, is run on a combination of aquaculture and viticulture principles ensuring that the Smallwater Estate vineyard is free from pesticides and environmentally friendly in order to maintain the integrity of the wetland ecology. From coastal plains to escarpment the Geographe Region is the ‘G’ spot of Western Australian wine growing. Its natural beauty, pristine waters, and the fertile soils are all reflected in the quality and diversity of the award winning wines from this region.

Minimising the range allows us to concentrate on producing a high quality product. The fundamentals of the quality begin with the location. At 900metres, our grapes our allowed to stay on the vine for an additional four to eight weeks resulting in more intense flavours.

My search for an Australian region capable of making classic wines with elegance, depth and bright fruit came to rest in 1988 when I discovered the undulating hills of the high-altitude, coolclimate region of Orange, NSW. All our wines are sourced entirely from the 47 hectare Koomooloo Vineyard, which I purchased in 1988 and planted in 1989 on red loam over limestone. This cool climate vineyard rises to an altitude of 900m. The immaculately tended vineyard has already produced the “Prix D’Excellence” Chardonnay at the 1998 VinExpo in Bordeaux and the “Best New World White Wine” at the 2005 and 2006 Decanter Awards in London. The fruit from Koomooloo has clearly defined varietal character that displays elegances, power, and length.

Perseverance Estate
is situated in the Alexandra Basin, part of the Central Otago Province, New Zealand’s premier Pinot Noir producing region. Formed by the movement of glacial rock and ice, the scenery in this area is both picturesque and dramatic, leaving behind soils that are dominated by schist, which in turn influences the taste and feel of the region’s wine. Located between Alexandra and Clyde at Mutton Town Gully, Perseverance Estate derives its name from a current wheel gold dredge, built in 1886 by the “father” of gold dredges, Louis Gards. This dredge worked at Mutton Town Point on the Clutha River until 1889, an illustration of this features on the front label of our wine. A five acre vineyard was developed and planted in 2003 by owners Murray and Jennie Hughes, with a further five acres planted in 2008, both containing Pinot Noir and Pinot Gris grapevines. Their property also includes a small olive grove and hazelnut orchard.
In addition to our award winning 2010 Pinot Gris, the following selection of Pinot Noir are available : Perseverance Estate 2008 Pinot Noir Crafted from ripe hand-picked fruit in Alexandra, Central Otago. Berry fruits with a spicy backbone, give this wine elegance and length. Winemaker: David Grant Perseverance Estate 2009 Pinot Noir This vintage has aromas of violets, dried fruits and cherry. The palate has sweet plum, white pepper and spice with full mouth feel, fine tannin structure and a long warm finish. Enjoy now or cellar for 5-7 years. Winemaker: Antony Worch Perseverance Estate 2010 Pinot Noir With a lovely ruby colour, this wine shows a complex combination of strawberry, cherry and vanilla, typical of the Alexandra Basin grapes. The French oak integrates fully in the palate, bringing length and density together with the strong tannic structure. A wine to enjoy now but worth cellaring for 5-7 years. Winemaker: Antony Worch

The small LIME ROCK vineyard is on high, sun drenched, northfacing limestone hills in Central Hawke’s Bay. (Mid-eastern North Island). Niches offer different aspects and soil depths, giving the Pinot Noir, Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Gris, Merlot and Grüner Veltliner elegance, balance, depth, length and minerality. Rodger Tynan, (ecologist in plant diversity from South Australia) and Rosie Butler (Roseworthy graduate, Montana and Petaluma) have long industry experience. The vineyard site, ecological practices and experience in the industry helps set this small, smart wine company apart. Come and enjoy spectacular views from the limestone hills to the Ruahine Ranges and experience a walk up White Knuckle Hill.
Wines are available from Heart and Soil Fine Wine Distributors, Geelong info@heartandsoil.com.au Selected fine wine stores

How Do You Create A Trophy Winning Riesling? Firstly, it helps if the fruit comes from a wine region that owing to its unique terroir, consistently produces Australia’s finest Riesling. The Watervale region in South Australia’s Clare Valley, with its terra rossa soils and Mediterranean climate, is renowned for producing classic, dry Riesling, with stunning citrus flavours that linger on the palate. Secondly, you need a skilled winemaker who is passionate about Riesling and understands what it takes to get the best out of this noble wine variety. Tim Gramp is one such winemaker. Originally known for the outstanding success of his very first vintage, the 1991 Tim Gramp McLaren Vale Shiraz, (1 trophy, and 6 gold medals including gold at the 1993 Intervin International Wine Show in New York City), Tim has continued to produce award winning Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon and Grenache wines. However, Tim has also proven himself to be a pretty handy white winemaker, with his 2005 Watervale Riesling winning gold at the 2005 Hyatt National Riesling Challenge in Canberra. The trophy in this year’s Boutique Wine Awards for the 2010 Tim Gramp Watervale Riesling comes on the back of its silver medal success at the recent London International Wine Show. Finally, trophy winning Rieslings are created with sharing and enjoyment in mind…either as a fresh, vibrant young wine or as an enticing aged beauty. Come and enjoy the 2010 Tim Gramp Watervale Riesling at our cellar door when next in the Clare Valley, or order online today via our website at www.timgrampwines.com.au
