Gruner Veltliner is a white grape variety native to Austria, Slovakia, Hungary and Czech Republic. In Australia Gruner is planted exclusively in cooler regions such as the Tumbarumba, The Adelaide Hills and Tasmania. Gruner is often compared to other varieties such Riesling with slightly more volume, texture and more approachable acidity. The texture and volume of this varietal means it is a very ver satile wine to match with foods. It is well suited to the bold flavours of Vietnamese cuisine such as summer rolls and noodle salads. Mexican foods such as fish tacos are also a great match and of course schnitzel and other fried foods. Nick Spencer Gruner Veltliner 2022 displays aromas of grapefuit, stone fruits, citrus and subtle spice. The palate is vibrant and juicy with lovely salivating acidity and texture.
Hungerford Hill Sauvignon Blanc
Versatile and designed to compliment food this style of Sauvignon Blanc shines. Produced from fruit grown in the western foothills of the Snowy Mountains. This Sauvignon Blanc required the full season to ripen; this long process developed intense passionfruit and pawpaw aromas, with a palate of grapefruit and fabulous natural acidity that ensures a crisp clean finish.
Paringa Estate
This is a newer world style of Chardonnay showing the elegance of fresh cool climate. Once harvested, the fruit was whole bunch pressed with the un-clarified juice that was fermented with inoculated yeast in seasoned French Oak Barriques. The wine by Paringa Estate was barrel stirred fortnightly during the eleven months of maturation and was sulphured early to retain fruit freshness & prevent malolactic fermentation. The bouquet of this wine is a mix nectarine, citrus/orange and complex sulphide solids aromas. The palate has similar fresh citrus & nectarine fruit flavours along with fine acidity. Chardonnay fruit combined with the complexity of barrel fermentation & maturation.
Toolangi Chardonnay
Toolangi is a state forest just outside Healesville that was devastated during Black Saturday. The excellent vineyards remain, and continue to produce wines of personality and place. The Chardonnay combines varietal characters of quince and crab apple with some delicious nutty oak nuances. Its great value.
Swan Bay Chardonnay
It may be the second label of Scotchman's Hill but don't be deceived the quality of this wine is first rate! Delicate, floral and perfumed aromas are backed up by ripe melon and stone fruit flavours.
Bernard Defaix Chablis
This wine is pale straw in colour and shows subtle grapefruit, mineral and flint characters on the nose. The palate has flavours of citrus and melon with savoury notes and a long dry finish.
Flametree SRS Chardonnay
A fine and quite flinty modern expression of Margaret River Chardonnay. Finer and leaner it might be in some ways, but the unmistakable power and persistence of the region still triumphs. Complex mealy grapefruit and roasted nut characters on the nose, and a deep and richly intense palate power through to the finish.
Cleanskin WE2 Chardonnay
Fantastic value for everyday drinking! Fresh, lifted aromas of peach, melon and tropical fruit and a palate brimming with lively varietal flavour.
Frogmore Creek Chardonnay
Frogmore Creek is a superb cool-climate Chardonnay from Tasmania that shows stonefruit and citrus varietal aromas which are enhanced by quality oak. The palate is beautifully structured with tight natural acidity. A very complex and subtle style.
