Receiving the award for Best Queensland Mediterranean Red award for 2013 Vintage as well as a silver medal for Nikki’s Vineyard Syrah 2013 at the RASQ wine show was a gratifying result for us. It is particularly pleasing as the 2013 vintage marked the ten year anniversary of the death of our daughter Nikki who was killed in a car accident at the Stanthorpe southern bypass while on her way to help pick our first vintage. The 2013 vintage was difficult for Shiraz for some Granite Belt winegrowers however Nikki’s Vineyard provided us with a delicious peppery Shiraz.
A bronze medal for our 2013 Merlot was an added bonus.
