Nine Popes is Melton's nod to the great wines of Châteauneuf-du-Pape and is as rich, powerful and beautifully balanced as the best examples from France. Almost a permanent feature in Matthew Jukes’ 100 Best Australian Wines.

Deep purplish in colour,with aromas of cherry and strawberry blended with notes of tobacco,cedar and rosemary. Juicy on the palate with sweet ripe tannins. Sourced entirely from organic grapes. A Chilean classic and utterly delicious.

Bright red colour with a touch of ruby. On the nose there is a a mixture of red fruit with notes of undergrowth.
With its complex mixture of red berries overlaid with touches of undergrowth and with its fine tannins, this wine will seduce your senses and bring a touch of elegance.

A nice light hue to this rosé which promises, and delivers, a good depth of fruit. There is a nice aroma of rhubarb and a hint of sweetness on the finish.

Deep ruby red in colour. A nose of great intensity with a touch of graphite and liquorice at first evolving to aromas of garrigue and lightly smoky notes. The attack is incisive, frank, with dense tannins. In the mouth, a smokiness with traces of forest floor and ripe fruit intertwines with peaty notes. As always, a wine with a strong identity, all in finesse and elegance.

MAGNUM (150cl)
Since the elevation of Cairanne to a southern Rhône cru, this first release of 'La Côte Sauvage' continues to be characterised by its finesse and finely-grained texture, due in part to the famous ‘argilo-calcaire’ of our hilltop vineyards such as La Pauline and Les Six Terrasses, slow winemaking methods and gentle maturation in different sized barrels of old French oak.
