Haselgrove expands as focus shifts
Advertiser Newspaper – 24th November 2009 – Alexandra Economou
McLaren Vale’s Haselgrove Wines will expand its production and storage facilities, as the winery shifts its focus to small-batch premium winemaking.
The expansion plans were part of a review of Haselgrove’s operations, which began last year after BankWest sold the winery to a group of businessmen. The new owners included Festival City Wines managing director Don Totino.
Haselgrove Winery receives 4 stars from James Halliday
In 2008 the business was acquired by four Italian-Australian wine stalwarts: Don Totino, Don Luca, Tony Carrocci and Steve Maglieri. The wines are released in four ranges: at the top, the Il Padrone The Boss Series; next the Bella Vigna (Beautiful Vineyard) Series; then the Primo Taglio First Cut Series; and at the entry level, the ‘H’ by Haselgrove Series. Exports to Europe and Asia.
Four Glasses out of Five
Bella Vigna McLaren Vale Shiraz 2008
Right in the mainstream of McLaren Vale style; sumptuous blackfruits, dark chocolate and cedar are intertwined with ripe tannins; good length and balance. Screwcap. 14.5% alc. Rating 93. To 2020. $25
Il Padrone The Boss McLaren Vale Shiraz 2007
Some colour development; the complex bouquet of blackfruits, mocha oak and dark chocolate leads into a medium- to full-bodied palate with more of the same; a barrel selection, but all new French oak, made only in exceptional vintages – curious, because ‘07 was certainly not exceptional, rather the reverse. However, hyperbole to one side, this is a very good wine. Screwcap. 14.5% alc. Rating 93. To 2027. $48
Bella Vigna Adelaide Hills Sauvignon Blanc 2009
Light straw-green; a thoroughly appealing mix of citrus/lime and tropical fruits; the finish lingering and long in the mouth. Screwcap. 12% alc. Rating 90. To 2012. $20
