Lowe Wine Range
Organic Mudgee Reds
The Lowe range comprises four wines, the flagship Lowe Reserve Zinfandel and Reserve Shiraz and the Lowe Merlot and Lowe Shiraz. These wines are all made from grapes grown on David Lowe’s estate vineyards which were planted in 1995.
Our Mudgee vineyards are all organic, having been converted in 2003. In the vineyard we use competitive biology, aiming to be completely chemical free in dry years and using half the organic standard of copper and sulphur in wet years. The goal is to lift vine health through soil health and complexity, and combat disease through an active and competitive leaf surface biology, crowding out disease causing organisms.
We have two Shiraz blocks in the vineyard. Both are organic, dry grown and untrellised and both show the distinctly different terrior in their wines, even though there are only 15 metres apart.

2009 Lowe ZinfandelDark ruby in colour, plum cake, liquorice and prune bouquet with a viscous, soft, lingering finish on the palate. Like all my Zinfandels, this is great drinking now, better in 2015. |
$75.00 |

2006 Lowe Merlot OrganicOne of our best. Very dark and intense colour still purple showing youth and great potential to age. Fruitcake bouquet with a touch of vanilla spice tucked away from the French oak. |
$30.00 |
 |
2006 Lowe Reserve ShirazViolet aromatics, a slightly funky edge and fabulous tannin framework with just a hint of stem. |
$45.00 |

2006 Lowe Shiraz OrganicDark colour typical of unirrigated grapes. Now in 2011 after 5 years we start to see the progression from Blueberry primary shiraz characters to the liquorice secondary early bottle age influences. |
