Fox Gordon Princess Fiano 2017

The Prince of Adelaide Hills was frustrated; all the women he met on Tinder just didn't quite work for him; many he simply didn’t find attractive and some he rejected because they didn't know silver corrupts the flavour of caviar; failing to provide him with a bone spoon. The rest pointed out Australia doesn’t have its own monarchy as it is a member of the Commonwealth; calling him a 'Catfishing Cuck!'

He devised a genius plan, for every suitor he placed a single grape at the bottom of 100s of mattresses and if the grape had turned into delicious wine by the morning then that was the women for him. Many tried, many failed until a local vintner stepped up. When the sun rose, the grape was replaced with a bottle of succulently aromatic Fiano, with complex stone fruit aromas and delicate undertones of Thai basil. On the palate there was great depth of flavour, with layers of texture and a long lasting floral finish. There was no doubt, this was the Princess for him!

Fox Gordon wines are made from family-owned vineyards and select growers in the Adelaide Hills. The wines in their collection are all award-winning, quality-driven wines, highly sought-after due to their opulent nature, quality and their unique marketing approach. Fox Gordon was founded to live the dream of producing premium wines from the Adelaide Hills that offer real integrity and beauty. The name and striking logo of Fox Gordon celebrate the wives of the original founders, namely Rachel Atkins (nee Fox) and Jane Gordon. Situated on 150 acres of breath-taking vineyard at Kuitpo Forest in the Adelaide Hills and overlooking the world-famous McLaren Vale, Fox Gordon delivers a wine experience that will be forever remembered. Sam Atkins started Fox Gordon in 2000, after joining the Australian wine industry in 1990, to produce Australian wines of distinction and value. Rachel soon joined Sam in the business and, as they say in the classics, the rest is history.

Nestled in its own natural amphitheatre, the vineyard sits 380 metres above sea level with cooling breezes from the ocean less than 18 kilometres away. This pristine climate and sustainable winemaking practices, allow Fox Gordon to produce wines with elegance, balance, and refinement.
