Oxford Landing
Established in 1958 by Wyndam Hill Smith, the vineyard is situated on the banks of the Murray River in South Australia.

The vibrant flavors for Oxford Landing wines start with the sustainable management of the family’s 650 acre vineyard. The team is dedicated to responsible care and conservation of the entire vineyard eco-system. The Oxford Landing vineyard is managed and nurtured as 130 separate 5-acre blocks.

Rather intense on the nose with a bit of a chemical/floral thing going on and some notes of baked sweet potato and cardoon lurking under the citrussy peach fruit.
