From our Breakneck Creek vineyard, on the eastern escarpment of McLaren Vale, tucked into the foothills and with stunning views of the Gulf St. Vincent and Mount Lofty ranges this is a brand new wine for Hither & Yon.
Apple and guava juice, salted limes, ginger, beeswax, crunchy texture. Crisp and fleshy mouthfeel with good fruity concentration, crisp minerality, framed with that brine and chalk edge we love in our white wines, and true of place.

Reviews of the 2025 Chenin Blanc:

Jacob Barter (Noori) for the Summer (2025-2026) edition of Fleurieu Living Magazine:
Chenin gets cast here as the oyster and sushi whisperer. It's bright and mineral, the acid is high, but there's texture and weight too, with an edge that takes us straight to shellfish, caviar and sashimi. Think Sake energy. The nose has rich fruit of course but there's more to it, ginger and beeswax, rice bran and macadamia. Perfect with oysters, a deconstructed smoked salmon bagel situation (cream cheese, dill, capers) or Ahi poke loaded with sesame, soy and tuna. It's the one you drink at a sushi train when the plates are piling up dangerously fast.

89 points, Marcus Ellis, Halliday Wine Companion, December 2025:
From the Breakneck Creek vineyard off vines grafted in '23. Whole-bunch pressed, then a long cold ferment in tank, with 20% in old oak. The bottle is lightweight and recycled. That’s a good thing. For the environment, and there’s more left in the bottle than it feels. A win-win. Waxy apples, lemon barley water, samphire, ozone and a little nuttiness. It flexes on the mid-palate, though is lighter in concentration. Clean acidity wraps things up neatly.
