McKelvey Estate continue to produce wines punching above their weight and with Keith Tulloch as winemaker, its easy to see why. In the glass: Delicate pale straw with green highlights. On the nose: Energetic and zesty white and yellow melon with cashew and fine oak spice. On the palate: Finely structured with elegant white fig and white peach, dry, minerally acidity and long, fresh acidity.

The Scarborough Offshoot Vermentino starts with aromas orange blossom, grapefruit, green pear and a hint of germanium. The full palate has lively acid followed by grapefruit and pears with a long crisp finish showing raw almonds and ginger.

Bouquet of citrus and lime, hint of baked bread. Elegant, tangy fruit, richness. Clean and crisp.

Although the Hunter is better-known for its unique blend of Semillon Chardonnay, we do also see the occasional Semillon Verdelho, and this one is a cracker!Vibrant pale straw in appearance. Pretty aromas of white peach, lemon, apple and melon. Clean and crisp with Granny Smith and stonefruit notes in a lovely easy-drinking style with soft acidity and a juicy finish.

Easy drinking and very approachable. Smooth oak from some barrel fermentation gives this wine backbone and longevity, rather than dominates. Some crisp citrus and stonefruit characters remain at the fore, keeping it fresh.

This is a classic, long-time award-winner from the Hunter Valley, and the latest edition does not disappoint. Citrus notes bring a zest to this wine with a finish that lingers like an old friend.

Tasting Notes: Great example of classic Hunter Valley Semillon. Refreshing lime and herbaceous flavours with underlying toasty honey characters starting to develop. Still aging very well with many years to come. Analysis: - Alcohol: 11.5% - pH: 3.11 - TA: 8.0.

Tasting Notes: A complex, balanced wine that is ageing very well, white gold in colour with aromas of vanilla and tropical fruits, the palate is packed with ripe stonefruit and a lingering oaky finish from barrel fermenting and ageing in new French oak hogsheads. - Analysis: - Alcohol: 13.0% - pH: 3.27 - TA: 6.8.
