Hurtle Walker first picked grapes at Magill as a 10 year old in 1900. Trained by Monsieur Duray and the great Leon Mazure, by 21 years of age, he was in charge of sparkling wine making for Auldana. After service in the Great War, Hurtle became the sparkling winemaker at neighbouring Romalo Cellars, where he stayed involved until his death in 1975. His son, Norm was winemaker there from 1951 to 1985, making premium sparkling wines for Wynns and 57 other companies. To keep us fizzing, Nick Walker, Norm’s son, made this luxurious blend in honour of not only his Grandfather but his families passion for sparkling wines.
