ABOUT WINDFALL
The Robertson Valley is renowned for its wine and roses, and offers only the very best of nature. The town is abuzz with friendly, helpful and hardworking people who send tranquil waves of energy flowing through to the small boutique farm at the end of the Valley. The late Eddie Barlow of cricketing fame was so inspired by the mist cascading down the mountains that he renamed the farm
WINDFALL
Robert Alexander is the current owner whose pursuit of excellence is now clearly apparent in the award winning wines currently produced.

SAUVIGNON BLANC 2012
Our Sauvignon Blanc delivers a first palate with hints of granadilla, peach, orange, apple and sweet melon. A distinctly tropical nose, the fruity start progresses to a complex, balanced and zesty lingering finish. A full bouquet of flavours, this appealing Windfall wine is imbued with fruit characters and mineral notes.
PINOT NOIR 2010
A light to medium-bodied Pinot Noir, fruit is abundant on the palate and complemented by hints of spice and a touch of earth. Hints of rose and Oak spice linger on the palate to complete the fruit-forward, lengthy finish.
BARREL 41
Windfall's Barrel 41, 2010, has a surprising blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Shiraz, Grenache, Tinta Roriz, Carignan, fVourvedre and Viognier. This nose on this full bodied wine is cedar wood, ripe fruit and cigar box which follows through onto the complex palate with Mocha and hints of toffee with a lingering finish that does not disappoint.
SHIRAZ 2010
Floral wood Oak spices and white pepper are abundant on the nose and complemented by an elegant, fruit-driven and juicy plum sensation on the palate.
