Over 700 wines were tasted at this year’s CCL Clear Image Hunter Valley Wine Show, and First Creek Wines proudly walked away with not one, or two, but an impressive THREE x TROPHIES for our Chardonnay:

 

Best Current and One-Year-Old Chardonnay: 2017 Winemaker’s Reserve Chardonnay

 

Best Two–Year-Old and Older Chardonnay: 2015 Winemaker’s Reserve Chardonnay

 

Murray Tyrrell Chardonnay Trophy
Best Chardonnay: 2017 Winemaker's Reserve Chardonnay

 

Chair of Judges Sarah Crowe said Chardonnay had 'returned to form' in the Hunter Valley, favouring a bright, fresh style as reflected in the winning wines.

 

Our Semillon was also a huge hit with the judges, with our 2018 Winemaker’s Reserve Semillon taking out TOP GOLD, and 2017 Single Vineyard Oakey Creek Semillon awarded GOLD.
