Dark fruit led by black cherry with pungent earthy and smoky notes and a touch of minty green herb give way to black cherry and raspberry flavours with lively acidity and light tannic grip on the finish.
Typical richly ripe and spicy Aussie Shiraz but surprisingly restrained raspberry and blackberry fruit. Nothing jammy here and acidity is lively with lightly firm dry tannins. Excellent value.
Blond-coloured and slightly hazy appearance suggests the beer is unfiltered. Appealingly subtle floral and yellow fruit scents shift to citrus and dry nutty malt flavours with emphatic hoppy bitterness on the finish. A solid, flavourful brew.
Clear, pale gold. Medium-intensity nose of orange, pear and apple. Light-bodied. Somewhat neutral apple flavours from a versatile if not especially characterful varietal. A good background wine when food is intended to be the star. Drink up.
Luckett’s signature wine gains additional complexity from the blending of four established red hybrids. Layered dark fruits, chocolate and spice come in a thickly textured package with reasonably approachable tannins and acidity, finishing with a splash of milk chocolate and attractive spice.
Traditional method Blanc de Blanc, 100% Chardonnay. A stream of fine bubbles and gentle mousse, aromas of brioche and orchard fruits followed by a well-structured palate of citrus, green apple and stone fruit, with generous but still lean mouthfeel underpinned by excellent acidity through a persistent finish.
This improbable blend of the red Pinotage with Chenin Blanc reveals unusual aromas of dried savoury as well as floral and ripe fruit scents. Characteristic Chenin citrusy flavours lead off on the palate with red berry fruit in a minor key. An imaginative, well-balanced wine.
