Wolf Blass

Although merged with Mildara and now under the giant umbrella of TWE, the brands (as expected) have been left largely intact. The Wolf Blass wines are made at all price points, ranging through Red,Yellow, Gold, Brown, Grey, Black, White and Platinum labels, at one price point or another covering every one of the main varietals. The pre-eminent quality of the red wines has reasserted itself over the white wines, but without in any way diminishing the attraction the latter have. All of this has occurred under the leadership of Chris Hatcher, who has harnessed the talents of the winemaking team and encouraged the changes in style. JAMES HALLIDAY
