The range...
The Patrick T range features four prestige labels. While they strongly reflect regionality, the wines are being embraced globally by a growing export market.
Estate Range
This premium wine range is the result of a very skilled winemaker working with magnificent quality fruit from one of Australia’s premier wine producing regions known for its hallowed terra rossa soils over limestone and pristine underground water. The Estate Range is the company flagship reflects an unwavering commitment to quality and exemplifies the varietal characteristics of Patrick T’s Coonawarra and Wrattonbully vineyards.
Mother of Pearl
An exciting combination of fruits from the sea and vine have contributed to the development of this unique range featuring chardonnay, shiraz and cabernet merlot. Developed in partnership with abalone diver Graham Pollard and a select group of investors from the lucrative South Australian abalone industry, Mother of Pearl pays homage to the ancient, shell encrusted sea beds of the Limestone Coast which today serve as the foundation for the region’s lucrative wine industry. Vineyards thrive in free draining soils derived from fossilised marine formations and windswept dunes. Combined with a cool climate, they allow for fruit yields of a consistent outstanding quality. The Range is famous for its unique flavour and maritime influence, with a rich smooth finish that emulates the perfection of the Mother of Pearl.
Art Series
Represents the evolution of a wine range borne through the work of three craftsmen – the winemaker, the viticulturalist and the artist. Russell Morrison has been a full-time artist since 1979, working in oil, water colour, printmaking and sculptural materials. A frequent contributor to Archibald, Wynne and Sulman Prize Exhibitions, Russell developed his skills and love for art while living in the Limestone Coast region. Patrick T has combined Russell’s artistic vision wit the craft of winemaking to produce the Art Series Wine Range.
Russell Morrison artworks can also be viewed in the Patrick T Cellar Door Gallery in Coonawarra.
The Gate Series
This exclusive range has caught the attention of one of the largest wine direct marketers in the world. Cellarmasters has declared Patrick T wines a regional star, and has sourced our Gate series directly from the winery, showcasing Wrattonbully and Coonawarra to the rest of Australia and New Zealand, via its 360,000-strong membership base.
