Prizes from all over the country with one thing in common - fine wine and food.
FIRST PRIZE - 4 mixed half dozens
Robert Stein Wines from Mudgee can trace their wine making history back to 1838 so they've certainly got the experience to produce award-winning wines. In particular the 2009 Riesling won trophies at the 2009 Winewise Awards and the 2009 Cowra Wine Show and is rated highly by wine critics. Four lucky VisitVineyards.com Members will get to taste this wine for themselves in their mixed half dozens which will also include the Robert Stein Reserve Shiraz 2005, whose subsquent 2007 vintage has also received great reviews and is well worth tasting.
