James' Review

The Lark Hill vineyard is situated at an altitude of 860 m, level with the observation deck on Black Mountain Tower, offering splendid views of the Lake George escarpment. The Carpenters have made wines of real quality, style and elegance from the start, but have defied all the odds (and conventional thinking) with the quality of their Pinot Noirs in favourable vintages. Significant changes have come in the wake of son Christopher gaining three degrees, including a double in wine science and viticulture through CSU, the progression toward biodynamic certification of the vineyard and the opening of a restaurant in 2007. They have also planted 1 ha of gruner veltliner; it is hard to understand why there have been so few plantings of this high-quality variety calling Austria its home. Exports to the UK.
