The Lovedale district of Hunter Valley is synonymous with world class Semillon. Resolved to make a transition from mining to wining, the De Iuliis family acquired a grazing property along Lovedale Road and established vines in the early 1990s. The remarkable quality of fruit made their harvests an essential inclusion for some of Hunter Valley's most conspicuous brands and memorable vintages. De Iuliis reserve the pick of crop for their own label, claiming dozens of trophies and a place on the Gourmet Traveller winemaker of year list.
TASTING NOTES
Light pale straw hues. Intense lemons and lime citrus bouquets, slateyness and savoury flint notes. A crisp, clean palate, dominated by fresh, lifted citrus flavours, an intensity of summer fruit characters, supported by balanced yet zesty acidity, contributing definition and length. The perfect match to seafood, gruyere fondue or white meat recipes.

De Iuliis are a Hunter Valley producer who are gaining remarkable critical accliam, purely on the basis of their superlative wines
Originating from Italy the De Iuliis family have made the Hunter region their home since 1960. After a long successful career in the Hunter mining industry, Joss and Anna De Iuliis were inspired to follow their family passion for wine and chose a property in the Lovedale Road region of the Lower Hunter Valley, converting a grazing property into a 20ha vineyard with the first vines planted in 1990. For the first decade they provided fruit for some of the Hunter Valley’s biggest names. It wasn't until their son Michael finished his postgraduate studies in Oenology at the world renowned Roseworthy campus (Adelaide University) in 1999 with remarkable results that dynamic of the business changed from grape growing to wine production.
