A Sheraton Trifecta! For
the third consecutive year Rockfield has won a coveted Award at the prestigious
Sheraton WA Wine Awards. This year our 2008 Semillon received the Silver Award,
and was the top awarded wine in the Dry White Semillon class. The judges highly
commended the Award winners in what they considered to be one of the highest
calibre years in the show's history. Our previous Awards include the Silver
Award (top rated wine in class) in 2009 for our 2007 Reserve Merlot, and the
Gold Award in 2008 for our 2006 Reserve Chardonnay.
