The name Eva Marie pays homage to female descendants of the Happ and Jones families whose ancestors were present at the Eureka stockade in the 1850's.  The pioneering spirit lives on at the Three Hills Estate with over 30 varieties planted. 

Skin contact, wild yeast and barrel fermentation produce a wine that is complex, textural and intriguing.

The grape varieties blended to make our Three Hills Eva Marie are Semillon, Sauvignon blanc and occasionally a little bit of Muscadelle. At low yield but high flavour levels these varieties are capable of making a wine to stand beside the best Chardonnays in terms of complexity, interest and longevity. That is our intent with this wine. 

AROMA: An attractive aroma of gooseberry, guava, lemon skin and pastry with hints of gun smoke, grass and white flowers.

PALATE: This is a rich, textural, complex wine style. It is intensely flavoured with grapefruit, gooseberry, quince and fig with notes of white peach and lemon tart. The mouthfeel is chalky with persistent zesty acidity and notable minerality.
