Australian multi region case – mixed

The Idiot Shiraz

Shiraz from the Orange region is reminiscent of the wine produced in Northern Rhone, France. The wine displays distinct bright spice with a fine pepper character typical of cooler regions.

The Barry Brothers is dark in colour with a deep purple hue. A welcoming nose demonstrates vibrant notes of blackcurrant, violets, vanilla, raspberry and mint. Juicy plum and raspberry fruit are tightly woven with notes of espresso, dark chocolate, liquorice and cassis. The palate is built on chocolaty tannins providing a well rounded, lingering finish.

Tamar Ridge Devils Corner Sauvignon Blanc

Pronounced aromas of fresh cut grass with a wash of zesty lemons and a drizzle of asparagus. The fresh cut grass flows through to the palate with a hint of leafy green herbs. Overall a wine that is bursting with gentle mouthfilling fruit flavours while leading to a finish that is crisp and refreshing.

H&V Eden Valley Chardonnay – this delicate chardonnay offers a lovely balance of fruit with precise winemaking and cool barrel maturation preserving the piercing and pristine flavours within.

The Chardonnay grapes were picked at optimum ripeness to make a stylish but complex white wine with great varietal definition. The colour is delicate green, gold and the bouquet shows hints of freshly cut white peach and toasty nuances derived from barrel fermentation in high quality French oak hogsheads. The palate is tightly structured with a long, dry finish making this a wine that can be enjoyed now or cellared with confidence for another 4-5 years if so desired during which time it will become richer and more golden in colour.

Bethany Old Vine Grenache  100% Barossa Grenache

Sourced from low yielding bush vines ranging in age from 50 to 120 years old. Fine structure expressing the varietal red berry fruit characters of Grenache balanced by supple fine grain tannins.

The nose displays aromas of fresh plums, blueberry and cherry notes. The palate is medium weight tasting of ripe cherries and raspberries balanced with hints of spice and a smooth tannin finish.
It goes well with lamb roast and it is a perfect partner for a tapas platter or antipasto.

Hand picked from old bush vines grown along the foothills of the Barossa Ranges.

The Yalumba Eden Valley Viognier is rich and luscious, with intense stone fruit – particularly white peach and apricot flavours, finishing with an aromatic citrus freshness. This wine will continue to grow and develop in the bottle, firstly showing enhanced apricots and spice, then after a couple of years, honey flavours and toast.
