JOSEPH d'Elena 2013 is released
The freshly bottled 2013 JOSEPH d'Elena Pinot Grigio arrived at the Primo Estate cellar door this week. Mark and the team couldn't wait to open a bottle and try the new vintage. Fresh from filtration and bottling, it needs a couple of weeks to settle, however the class of this wine is unmistakable. Subtle fruit aromas, hints of spice, soft texture and delicate length as usual. 2013 d'Elena Pinot Grigio, yum.

2013 JOSEPH First Run is released
An Australian food icon, the JOSEPH First Run Extra Virgin Olive Oil is sourced from selected groves on the Fleurieu peninsula and the Adelaide Hills. As the name suggests, only the first parcels of fruit from the harvest are used to create this vibrant, spicy and intensely flavoured olive oil. Bottled straight from the press while still cloudy, JOSEPH First Run Extra Virgin Olive Oil is seasonal produce at it's best. Enjoy this small parcel of oil while young and fresh.

2013 La Biondina is here!
It's amazing to think that the first release of this wine was back in 1982. The Primo Estate winery was once again filled with the pungent tropical fuit salad aromas of a fresh vintage of Colombard fermentining this February. While an all too familiar scent for Joe Grilli and the winemaking team, it never fails to put a smile on their faces. Now the Young Blonde is set to put a smile on your face, as the new vintage is released in cellar door and online:)

Halliday rates JOSEPH Sparkling Red 96/100
James Halliday has awarded the JOSEPH Sparkling Red 96 points in his latest Top 100 Wine Guide...
With its base of decanted museum red wines dating back 40 years, a hogshead of Primo Estate added every year since 1989, and a hogshead of JOSEPH Moda Cabernet Merlot every vintage since 1991, this wine is unique. As ever, very complex, well balanced and long with cedar, spice and the different flavour from the cabernet merlot barrel added each year.
Australia's Best White, Red and Sparkling Wines, 2010. The Weekend Australian Magazine - November 13-14, 2010.
The 2010 disgorgment JOSEPH Sparkiling Red is available now at www.primoestate.com.au/buy
