Stonehaven Rose
Bright salmon pink. Strawberry, raspberry, orange blossom and dried herb aromas. Juicy red berry fruit core in a generous and flavoursome style with good structure, crunchy acidity and persistence finish.The Stonehaven winery was built in 1998 by Hardy’s, with a focus to express what the Limestone Coast can offer as a region. Now in the hands of C.W. Wines, we have released Stonehaven back into the market, with a refreshed look and campaign, targeting the modern-day wine drinker. Stonehaven's brand ethos is all about 'depth and discovery' and this is a key message carried throughout the branding, marketing, and most importantly the wines.
Identity Pinotage
Dark intense ruby purple colour. Concentration of sweet red fruits like plums, blackberry, black olives and roasted red peppers. Sweet tobacco spice with undertones of dark chocolate. This full-bodied wine evokes a sweet dark sensation on the palate with lots of black fruits. It is well balanced with silky tannins and a rounded mouthfeel. Ideal with ramen, and BBQ meats.
Taylors Jaraman Shiraz
Taylors Jaraman Shiraz continues the long tradition of producing flavour rich red wines from premium vineyards across South Australia. This Shiraz is sourced from the Clare Valley and McLaren Vale regions and brings a little bit from both worlds with rich, foreboding fruit from McLaren working in harmony with the aromatic and textured Clare Valley fruit. Delicious today, yet will cellar nicely for the medium term.
St Hallett Gamekeeper's Shiraz
St Hallett and Shiraz goes hand in hand when you start talking about the Barossa. St Hallett Gamekeeper's Shiraz displays lifted and pretty notes of lively purple fruit characters with a delicate hint of violets. Pure red fruits dominate on the palate, with lifted spices of cinnamon. Long, lingering finish.
Houghton Red Classic
Restrained red fruit with a background of menthol, leather and tobacco on the nose leads to a big mouthful of cherries, vanilla and plums with good intensity. A nicely balanced wine, drinking very well.
Houghton Cabernet Sauvignon
Houghton Cabernet Sauvignon from the Stripe series of wines has loads of cassis and dark plum flavours that are perfectly balanced with hints of cigar box, soft tannins and a touch of oak. A true WA Cabernet for a fantastic price!
De Bortoli Deen Vat 1 Durif
While Durif is not widely grown in Australia but has a loyal following nonetheless. De Bortoli Deen Vat 1 is an excellent example, showing typically deep colour and lots of rich, ripe fruit supported by firm tannins. Perfect when paired with a thick cut steak and roasted vegetables.
Gemtree Dragon's Blood Shiraz
With the Southern Ocean coastline just minutes from Gemtree's vineyards, the maritime influence runs deep at this winery. Couple this with the certified organic vineyards that are tended by hand and you have a perfect recipe for a bold and full-bodied Shiraz; the Dragon's Blood McLaren Vale Shiraz. Choosing sites that offer the greatest varietal expression, concentration and finesse, the wine then saw maturation in French oak of sizes ranging from barriques (225L) to puncheons (500L) for 12 months. The result is a foreboding Shiraz that displays notes of blueberry, blackcurrant, aniseed and balancing earthen touch. Ideal served on its own to fully appreciate the rich and complex flavours but also at home when paired with French cutlets and slow cooked duck.
Squealing Pig Rose
Winner of Best Still Rosé award at the Sydney International Wine Competition 2016, this Pinot Noir Rosé from Marlborough is full of intensity and flavour. Youll find flavours of mandarin, watermelon and strawberry with a fresh finish.
