Two vineyards can now add the golden touch to Loddon festive celebrations after the release of results from the prestige Victorian Wine Show.
Bridgewater’s Dave Lawson has won gold with the Black Wallaby 2021 Grenache, a smaller batch of about 80 dozen bottles made from grapes grown near Heathcote.
And Dave’s neighbour at Water Wheel, Peter Cumming picked up gold for his 2021 Viognier.
Dave and Peter received scores of 95 for their top wines from show judges who only awarded three gold medals in each of the classes that each had dozens of entries from wineries across Australia.
The local vignerons said they were pleased with results in the top Victorian competition. “We’ll find time to celebrate over a wine this Christmas,” they said.
