Offshoot Values

The Offshoot range was created to provide our winemakers with the freedom to explore diverse styles and techniques beyond the usual parameters of producing Hunter's wines. It serves as an avenue for experimentation, offering unique and limited-edition blends. With Offshoot, we aim to connect with younger drinkers and the emerging generation at Hunter's Wines. The Pet Nat range, in particular, aligns with the growing trend towards craft beer and cider.

This is a distinct label that operates independently from our mainline Hunter's varietals, focusing on small-batch, experimental creations.

The Offshoot wines are where we experiment in the vineyard and winery to try and create something a bit different

Cameron Douglas MS - The Shout, September 2024

A lovely blush pink appearance leads to a bouquet of red apple and raspberry fruit scents, with a fine lees core and fresh spring floral tones. Textures on the palate stem from the fine mousse and tiny bubbles generated during the winemaking, coating the palate evenly. On the second and third sips, the flavours of red berries and apple become stronger, with the lees flavours building depth and complexity. Dry, balanced, well made, and ready to drink from 2024 though to 2027.
