'Alexander Munro' Semillon
'Alexander Munro' Semillon is our top Semillon and is made from our best 'individual vineyard' parcel of Semillon fruit each year, which inevitably comes from vines grown on sandy loam soil in Pokolbin. 'Alexander Munro' Semillon is not released as a young wine and only after 5 years bottle maturation in our cellars.

'Alexander Munro' Chardonnay
Meerea Park first released a Chardonnay from the 1991 vintage and the 'Alexander Munro' Chardonnay was introduced as a reserve Chardonnay in 1997. Whole bunch pressing, natural yeast fermentation in French oak all combine to make a rich, complex style.

'Epoch' Semillon
Meerea Park has made a Semillon since the 1998 vintage, but began naming it 'Epoch' Semillon from the 2000 vintage to coincide with the start of a new millennium and also because that Semillon is the first variety we harvest each year, commencing our vintage.

"Today, Meerea Park's wines are some of the finest in the region, in fact the whites are some of the best of their type in the country".
Tim White - Australian Financial Review - 14th August 2009
"Delicious green-gold colour. Perfect mix of primary and secondary flavours. Hay, lanolin, lemon zest and lime. Great complexity. Great freshness. Length is good. The marvel of good Hunter Valley semillon? This is an example."Rated : 93 Points
