The following is a summary of top awards from previous vintages of our estate Proprietor's Reserve Wines and awards received to date on our current release wines. We strive for Gold and Silver Medals on all our wines, however we are just as proud of our Bronze Medals. Bronze Medal wines are considered well made above average wines typical of their class.
