PermalinkMichael Hill Smith at Wine Decanted in Lake Tahoe
Michael Hill Smith represented us earlier this month at Wine Decanted in Lake Tahoe: a full immersion in Australian wine for 100 important wine trade from around the US.
Wine Australia have said that Decanted is the most important event they have put on in America, providing a better and deeper understanding of the diversity and the complexity and uniqueness of Australian Wine. Michael was one of 13 winemakers plus some other special guests and media from Australia, showing wines from both Shaw + Smith and Tolpuddle Vineyard that were very well received. He had a terrific time.
Please watch the video featuring Michael, here.

Congratulations to Renee Ferguson, the winner of our Shaw + Smith Luxury Escape Competition 2018 and Vanessa Joubert, the winner of the Shaw + Smith Instant Cellar.

06/08/2018 at 10:59 AMThree new Single Vineyard releases.
Australia has seen a move toward more single site wines. For this to be plausible there must be a tangible difference in the glass and we believe these three individual vineyard wines do indeed have a real point of difference.
2016 Shaw + Smith Lenswood Vineyard Chardonnay
2016 Shaw + Smith Lenswood Vineyard Pinot Noir
2015 Shaw + Smith Balhannah Vineyard Shiraz
These releases are the third vintage made of the Lenswood Vineyard Chardonnay and the Balhannah Vineyard Shiraz, and the first of the Lenswood Vineyard Pinot Noir.
Available online now and in our Tasting Room.
