Complex aromas of melon and tropical fruit, Asian pear and jasmine blossom. A third of the Sauv Blanc was barrel fermented and aged sur lie, which contributes complexity and richness. The Semillon (10%) fills out the palate with a waxy texture amidst fig and sweet fruit flavours. It’s time for roast chicken.
A superb value red from Southern France. This blend of Syrah and Grenache features cherry, plum, spices, violets and herbs. Smooth and drinking beautifully now. It is a wine made for weeknight dinners, alongside pasta and pizza.
Meaty, floral and brooding with firm, but elegant tannins, dark fruit, savoury and fresh with a pleasant juiciness on the drying finish. A blend of predominantly Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz and Touriga Nacional from 20- to 50-year-old vines.
Bright and fresh with a firm underlying structure and tropical fruit aromas and flavours, with the ability to pair with both delicate and flavourful seafood dishes, chicken and pork dishes and Asian cuisine.
Ruby-purple. Ripe fruity nose of blueberry, raspberry jam, spicy notes and an animal undertone. Generous body, fresh and fruity taste, the middle palate has an open and expansive texture that is very nice. The tight finish is almost tannic, fully dry but intensely flavourful. Drink now
If you're a Gewürztraminer fan, don't miss this one. Golden straw in colour with a spicy, lychee and rose-petal nose, it’s medium- to full-bodied, off-dry, with sweetish melon and lychee flavours and lively, balancing acidity. Great with Asian cuisine or smoked salmon.
Distinctive Aussie-style Riesling displaying a developed bouquet highlighting grapefruit, tropical fruit and a whiff of mineral. Green and citrus fruit on the palate with agreeably balanced acidity and lingering notes of mineral and lime on the finish.
