Hermitage Lodge is located in the heart of Hunter Valley Wine Country.

Our four acre vineyard is planted with Shiraz vines, and our wine is made by Monarch Winemaking Centre, directly across the road from Hermitage Lodge.

What’s in a name...
The wine produced from the vineyards has been known as ‘Joshua Shiraz’ for many years, Joshua being the son of the previous owners. When we purchased the property we decided to change the name to Partners’ Pick, mainly because a couple of the partners of Hermitage Lodge picked the grapes - that's it!!
 

2005 Partners' Pick

This wine was matured in French and American Oak for 20 months prior to blending and bottling.  The wine is a ruby red colour with a nose of blackberry and plum with licorice and pepper spice.  On the palate, it is medium bodied and spicy with fleshy-ripe fruits and an elegant long finish..
Enjoyable now, but will benefit from 3-5 years cellaring.
