and memorable.

Liqueur Shiraz
A very concentrated style of fortified red wine. The Swan Valley Shiraz in this
wine is from very old, non irrigated, low yielding vines and is hand picked
when extremely ripe and raisined. The resulting wine is aged in barrels for
many years and is then blended with much older reserve material. A portion of
Jack Mann’s original *solera concentrated over several decades is included in
this blend (2%). The bulk of the solera is Corin’s own from the eighties and
nineties. An extremely rich, complex fortified wine exhibiting characters of
dark chocolate, coffee, liquorice, raisin and some earthier savoury notes.
This bottling is the entire solera and therefore will never be repeated.

Lamont’s Black Monster
Intense deep black/burgundy in colour with a distinctive magenta rim.
Displaying fragrant violet and dark jube aromatics, Lamont’s signature
red is made from single vineyard Donnybrook fruit. A deliciously deep
brooding Malbec with cool black fruits, dark chocolate, liquorice and a
mouth-filling richness. A persistent finish completes the seamless wine
which has the ability to age into a more savoury beast!

NV Navera
A classic Australian liqueur style is made from Swan Valley low-yielding
old vine, dry grown Navera (a Muscat derivative), Pedro Ximenez (PX)
and Frontignac (Brown Muscat). The components of this wine are aged
for an average of ten years before careful selection and blending.
The colour in the glass is a brilliant deep golden/amber with a slight
khaki hue. The bouquet - a lift of ripe apricots, raisins and liqueured
cumquats. The palate is rich, warm and luscious with a long lingering
finish. To surprise and delight, try it also as a cocktail with plenty of ice
and a small wedge of lime (squeeze out the juice first).

2021 White Monster
2021 White Monster Hand picked fruit sourced from Pemberton. The wine completed full malolactic fermentation with batonage and lees stirring in barrel. Malolactic fermentation enables the wine to be richly flavoured and provides great texture, mouthfeel and complexity. The wine was fermented in new French oak, using both puncheons and barriques. Following fermentation, the wine was returned to oak for a further 6 months maturation prior to bottling just before Christmas 2021. Nose - fine and precise, displaying strong peach overtones with generous middle palate and showing a touch of lingering acid to sustain the finish.
2021 Semillon Sauvignon Blanc
A blend of premium Margaret River Semillon (70%) and Sauvignon Blanc
(30%). The wine is bright and inviting with the Semillon contributing a
citrus balance and generous mouthfeel to the punchy bouquet of tropical
fruits, fresh cut crass and herbal notes of the Sauvignon Blanc component.
A happy union to be enjoyed while young and fresh.

2020 Shiraz
100% fruit from Lamont’s 25 yr old ‘Back Block’ Swan Valley Shiraz vines. A vibrant dark plum colour with attractive oak induced spicy nose, the wine’s silky palate displays the richness of ripe sweet blackberries. A soft, elegant medium weight style with fine tannins and a satisfying length of flavour. Alc/Vol 14.5% Drink now or cellar in the medium term. ‘The ripe fruit along with the soft tannins in the shiraz works so well with so many dishes. A simple rogan josh with a fragrant rice will make the shiraz stand out and take notice! Don’t forget me!’
2012 Lamont’s VP
Perfect seasonal conditions allowed for a small selection of Lamont’s back
block Shiraz to be made into this fortified style which is aged in the bottle
rather than in oak.
Inky purple/black in appearance, with liquorice, spice aniseed and coffee on
the bouquet. Sumptuous flavours of intense plum and fruit cake fill the palate
up to the satisfying traditional dry finish. Maturing nicely at the moment, the
wine can be enjoyed now but will continue to develop complexity for the next
ten to fifteen years.

chocolate, cake, dessert or cheese these wines can be enjoyed and act as a buffer to the

Please enjoy.’ - Corin Kate & Fiona
