"Pale garnet. Light, earthy raspberry fruit on the nose. Really very fine 16.5 with good density and a dry finish. Infinitely more sophisticated than common or garden NZ Pinot. Like The Flying Winemaker bottling, the balance here is perfect..." Jancis Robinson MW

Happy Easter Everyone! We didn't find any chocolate eggs in our vineyards but we did find some delicious Pinot Noir. As vintage 2020 draws nearly to an end we are thankful for all the people that have helped us get this far.

Hi Aussie homebound mates. Our 2019 Pinot Grigio from the King Valley is now sold out! To make things worse, we won't have a 2020 Pinot Grigio because of the bush fires. So we won't have this wine available until August 2021. Please give our other yummy wines a go!

Tough choice for a Friday night! I think I will just take all three. #weekendwine #theflyingwinemaker #eddiemcdougallwines #wineaustralia #NZwines

Viognier (pronounced vee-on-yeah) is known as the exotic and hedonistic white wine. Full-bodied with perfumed aromas of apricots, honey blossom and peach, this is a distinctive wine and it’s made a seductive comeback after its close call with extinction.
