Gayle Taylor and Serena Abbinga founded Serengale Vineyard in 1999 with the goal of producing the best grapes for making into premium wines. Gayle had worked in the wine industry for over 20 years and was partnered by Serena, who was seeking to return to North East Victoria after many years of living and working in inner city Melbourne.
I was fortunate enough to try the entire Serengale range recently and as most impressed. The reds in particular showed a wonderful Bordeaux-like elegance with soft berry fruits, fine grained tannin and amazing settled balance.
"Chardonnay is undoubtedly Beechworth's greatest strength. Serengale is a consistent producer of some of the region's best, with its mixture of precision and poise. There is both brightness and depth of fruit that is impressive here as summer stone fruits, grapefruit and lemon zest arrive layered with toasted nuts and almond meal, all lightly spiced. Creamy in texture, it also possesses a driving brisk acidity which carries long. An open, confident, youthful chardonnay with ageing potential." 95pts | Jeni Port | Halliday Wine Companion
