Wine lovers lyrical over Lamberts Wines
Cairns Show Wine Awards
Wine connoisseurs and enthusiasts were able to eat their hearts out during last weekend’s Cairns Show Wine Awards, the largest wine awards in North Queensland.
Showcasing more than 900 wines from all over Australia, the annual Awards have become a feature on the Australian wine industry calendar in June each year.
Running away with five medals was Lambert Estate Wines. Nestled in the rolling hills to the west of Angaston in the beautiful Barossa wine country, the Estate is blessed with some of the region’s finest soils and climatic conditions.
The family run Estate has been able to captivate the essence of what the Barossa offers the winemaker i.e. ideal climate, soils and landscape elements and the perfect terroir for producing outstanding quality wines.
The unique wines of the Estate left a big impression in the Far North as the winemakers hosted local wine tastings at the Bottle-O in Mossman and Port Douglas at the end of last year.
Tom Tyndall, local Lambert Estate Wines representative, proudly announced that ‘The Prologue’ (Sparkling Pinot Noir) attained a Gold Award and four Bronze Awards were given to ‘The Commitment’ (Medium Bodied Shiraz), ‘Little Rebel’ (Mourvedre, Medium Bodied Red), ‘Thoroughbred’ (Cabernet Sauvignon, Full Bodied Red) and their ‘’P.S. I Love You’ (Petite Sirah, Full Bodied Red).
