Friends of Punch was born following the loss of their 2009 vintage fruit at Lance's Vineyard, St Andrews during the Victorian Bushfires.

It has been produced with help from other vineyards who generously lent their support by asking, how can we help? Their answer was simple - sell us some grapes! And they did. In each case they shared with them significant portions of their scant, wonderful crops.

The crisp citrus acidity of Semillion is retained and helps the flow easily across the palate. Lees and oak give the texture a little breadth and creaminess but it is well restrained within the structure. It is delicious and makes you want to come back for another glass, which at the end of the day is fundamental criteria for any wine.

Some significant label damage on some bottles with minor capsule damage - pictured.
