1995 Frankland Estate "Olmo's Reward" (Merlot/Franc+++)
FRANKLAND, GREAT SOUTHERN
SoldOut January Release Bordeaux Blends
This wine grows in stature each year. Seemingly as the vines mature this Bordeaux style blend has become one of the outstanding wines produced anywhere in the country. Whilst the 1994 release was a fabulous wine this vintage is superior in virtually all aspects......

1995 Frankland Estate "Isolation Ridge" Shiraz
FRANKLAND, GREAT SOUTHERN
SoldOut January Release Shiraz
The traditional home of Shiraz in Australia, the Barossa has been well and truly challenged by an array of cooler climate regions where intensely fruity wines can be produced. The Lower Great Southern is one of the regions, and Judi Cullam and Barrie Smith lead the way with this wonderful wine which has been remarkably consistent since the first vintage was released......

1996 Frankland Estate "Isolation Ridge" Shiraz
FRANKLAND, GREAT SOUTHERN
SoldOut January Release Shiraz
Without any doubt this is the finest release of "Isolation Ridge" to date. Until now the Bordeaux variety blend "Olmo’s Reward" would have been regarded as Frankland’s flagship red wine but now here is a serious challenger. The vineyards are really starting to mature now and producing some of the best fruit anywhere in Australia......

1997 Frankland Estate "Isolation Ridge" Shiraz
FRANKLAND, GREAT SOUTHERN
SoldOut January Release Shiraz
Given the great success of the Shiraz variety throughout Australia it is somewhat surprising that it is not more widely planted in Western Australia. Judi Cullam and Barrie Smith of Frankland Estate have produced some very fine wines under this label, showing that Shiraz is just as suited in the West as other locations throughout Australia......

1997 Frankland Estate Riesling
FRANKLAND, GREAT SOUTHERN
SoldOut January Release Riesling
The potential of this superb grape growing region is now being realized. Great Riesling has virtually been the sole domain of the Clare and Eden Valleys in South Australia, and rightfully so. However, the Lower Great Southern provides some worthy competition. Indeed this wine is a fine example of top quality Riesling that does not come from the traditional classic regions......

1997 Frankland Estate Chardonnay
FRANKLAND, GREAT SOUTHERN
SoldOut January Release Chardonnay
Each year there is a marked improvement in the quality of Frankland Estate wines. The wines have always been good, due no doubt, to the superb piece of land on which the vines are planted and the supreme climate of the region. Barrie Smith and Judi Cullam are the real improvers. As they have become more experienced with their fruit they have been able to translate that into wines that not only express the pure varietal character but also display added nuances of complexity......

1998 Frankland Estate "Isolation Ridge" Shiraz
FRANKLAND, GREAT SOUTHERN
SoldOut January Release Shiraz
The development of this label from an interesting but obscure wine to one of the most highly sought after examples of the variety has been truly amazing. Each succeeding vintage sees an extra layer of flavor as the vines mature. The 1998 vintage has been highly acclaimed in South Australia and Victoria. It is obvious from this wine that the harvest was equally successful in the West......

1998 Frankland Estate Chardonnay
FRANKLAND, GREAT SOUTHERN
SoldOut January Release Chardonnay
This is the quiet achiever of the Frankland Estate range. Never seeming to get as much attention as the reds, or even the Riesling, it has consistently been a fine elegant wine with just the right balance of fruit and complexity. Again with this years vintage the team of Judi Cullam and Barrie Smith have produced a wine that is a fine balance between delicacy and power, fruit and complexity......

2000 Frankland Estate "Isolation Ridge" Chardonnay
FRANKLAND, GREAT SOUTHERN
Good January Release Chardonnay
Every year this wine seems to get better. Additional vine age or just Judi Cullam and Barrie Smith are just getting better at what they do? A bit of both is the answer......

1999 Frankland Estate "Isolation Ridge" Riesling
FRANKLAND, GREAT SOUTHERN
SoldOut January Release Riesling
Judi Cullam and Barrie Smith are now firmly entrenched in the upper echelon of grape growing and winemaking teams in Australia. This is remarkable given the relatively short time they have had their vineyard planted in Western Australia’s Great Southern region. Established in 1988 the vineyards are now mature and producing better and more consistent fruit......

Good March Release Case Size: 12/750ml Shiraz
 

1998 Frankland Estate "Olmo's Reward" (Merlot/Franc+++)
FRANKLAND, GREAT SOUTHERN
Good January Release Bordeaux Blends
Perhaps the most distinctively elegant Bordeaux inspired blend out of Australia, sourced from the “Isolation Ridge” Vineyard. For starters it is Merlot (48%) and Cabernet Franc (43%) dominant, with smaller parcels of Malbec (4%), Cabernet Sauvignon (3%) and Petit Verdot (3%) , completing the “choir”......

1994 Frankland Estate "Olmo's Reward" (Merlot/Franc+++)
FRANKLAND, GREAT SOUTHERN
SoldOut January Release Bordeaux Blends
The Lower Great Southern region seems blessed by wonderful conditions to slowly but surely ripen grapes. 1994 was one of those great seasons and proprietors Judi Cullam and Barrie Smith are very proud of this Bordeaux blend wine......

1996 Frankland Estate "Olmo's Reward" (Merlot/Franc)
FRANKLAND, GREAT SOUTHERN
SoldOut January Release Bordeaux Blends
This wine continues the trend established over the last few years. Four varieties have been used to create this seamless "Bordeaux Blend", with Cabernet Franc forming the largest proportion in the blend, followed by Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Malbec. Too many wines in Australia have been produced as totally made from Cabernet Sauvignon and the grape varieties typically blended with it have been forced into a minor role. This wine leads the way as being of the highest quality in the Bordeaux style yet it relies on the combination of the varieties and how they work together rather than isolated varietal characteristics......

1997 Frankland Estate "Olmo's Reward" (Merlot/Franc+++)
FRANKLAND, GREAT SOUTHERN
SoldOut January Release Bordeaux Blends
This is yet another superb wine from Frankland Estate who continue to impress with wine that is both varietally true and correct yet displays an abundance of distinctive regional characters. The blend employs all five Bordeaux varieties with Merlot being the most prominent, followed by Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec and finally just a trace of Petit Verdot. Wines using all five varieties are very rare in Australia with most producers going for the more obvious varietal characters. This wine is far more subtle and complex by a long way......

1998 Frankland Estate "Isolation Ridge" Riesling
FRANKLAND, GREAT SOUTHERN
Limited January Release Case Size: 12/375ml Riesling
This wine has well and truly arrived. Over the past few years the wine has been very impressive and indeed if there is a region outside the Clare and Eden Valleys to equal the exquisite nature of Riesling then the Lower Great Southern is the most likely......
