Following on from our original vision, risky business utilises the decades of experience from grape grower and viticulturist Rob Quenby and vintner John Waldron. Since 2013 we have been sourcing fruit from Western Australia (primarily from Great Southern Margaret River region ) and Victoria’s King Valley, producing small batches of fine and distinctive wines from each area.
The Western Australian grapes come from Rob’s vineyards that are managed by Quenby
Viticultural Services, while the King Valley grapes are sourced by winemaker Warren Proft to produce delicate and flavoursome Prosecco, Pinot Gris and Sangiovese varietals.
Colour: Good crimson red with a hint of purple.
Aroma: Has delicate fruit aromas with smoky, ripe tamarillo fruit characters.
Palate: The spicy, savoury fruit flavours are well balanced by the drying tannins from the fruit astringency and from oak maturation
A well flavoured and well structured wine to enjoy now or with up to five years bottle age.
We suggest leaning to flavours that are mildly spicy. Cajun is a particular favourite of ours, Barbecue grilled-meats, smoky dishes, as long as it’s not over the top with heat.
