George's Folly

Here at Regions, we have so many great friends. And it is our pleasure to offer their wares and share the wines that they make. The team at Georges Folly (George and his gorgeous partner - Ms J) are not only good friends but wonderful supporters also.

Having enjoyed the hospitality, great food and wines of the Fleurieu Region for many years, George and Ms J decided to investigate the possibility of a “lifestyle property” where their children could grow up enjoying and emulating their outdoorsy, fun, country childhoods. Ms J’s idea was a beach retreat at Port Willunga where she could sit on the veranda while the kids happily played on the beach. Unbeknownst to her, George’s idea was a property on the banks of the Murray River where he could enjoy skiing – a sport he loved as a teen.

One fateful day in December 2015, George came home and made the announcement that he had purchased said lifestyle property, but it came with a catch – an 88 acre vineyard fronting the Finniss River at Currency Creek!! Family laughed “yep, and Pigs Might Fly too”, “What a Pie in the Sky idea”, you are “Off with the Fairies” were some of the sayings bandied around that evening. Family did eventually adapt and now affectionately call said vineyard “George’s Folly”.

And we are all so glad that he did. Now producing wines such as Roussanne, Nero d’Avola, Montepulciano and Sauvignon Gris,  Georges's serious Folly is looking more like a full time job - for Ms J.

      The purists wouldn’t blend these two, but we think it works! A deliciously bold, rustic, spicy red. On the palate, you’ll detect cherry, blackberry, plums with the slightest back palate taste of tobacco and nutmeg. On the nose, it’s delicious blueberries. Wonderful chilled for summer BBQs or at room temperature...

      Subtle aromas of vanilla and French oak, on the palate it's pepper, liquorice and spice - think warming nutmeg and cinnamon - voluptuous red fruits and a tiny splice of chocolate to finish! A lovely Shiraz to drink now, but this wine will cellar beautifully allowing the tannins to soften...

      Delightful aromas of white peach, cashew, beeswax and talc, on the palate it’s lemon curd, passionfruit and marzipan. Bright acid holds the richness of the palate in check. It’s a textural and complex wine. We recommend pairing this delightful wine with spicy foods – think fresh Thai and Vietnamese salads,...
