{"title":"Virgin Hills Wine","description":"\u003cp\u003eVirgin Hills was the creation of the eccentric Hungarian-born sculptor and restaurateur Tom Lazar. Arriving from Hungary via Paris in 1952, he found a country and a wine industry, very different to the one we know today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLazar was determined to change all that. He established the acclaimed Little Reata restaurant in Melbourne. Then in 1968, came his grand vision of Virgin Hills. Inspired, he bought 300 acres of rugged bushland high in the Macedon Ranges. Lazar saw an opportunity to expose Australian palates to something very different; black cherries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.hopeestate.com.au\/products\/mix-match-premium-wines-6pk\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBuild your own custom case\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"virgin-hills-1995-rare-tawny","title":"VIRGIN HILLS 1995 RARE TAWNY","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRegion\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMacedon Ranges, VIC\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVirgin Hills is an iconic single-site vineyard established in 1968 by Hungarian-born sculptor and restaurateur Tom Lazar.
