A lightly structured, light-medium bodied blend of piquant freshness. Harmonious, where no variety is distinct. Each plays its role, but the whole beats to its own rhythm. Lively summer fruits, herb and spice and a floral lift. Wafts of gaminess too. Lunch-time appropriate at 11.8% abv. Lightly chill if you feel, or not. Best between 12-14 degrees in my opinion.

Is there a better time to enjoy Port than in the cooler months? Were loving the Niepoort Ruby Port from Portugal. Its a young, juicy-fruit fortified with cherry and plum flavours, and goes down beautifully with soft cheeses. This Port from Douro Valley Portugal speaks of bright red berry, red earth and attractive sweet spice with a pleasing alcoholic finish and 100 g/l residual sugar. Serve room temperature or chilled. No decanting nessesary.

This sparkling wine is a pale straw/gold colour with a fine and persistent bead. Bready and biscuity autolysis notes from lees ageing are balanced by crisp apples and citrus lift. Vibrant lemony acidity adds drive to a full and rich mid-palate, vigorous mousse and a slaty, mineral persisting finish. 'The texture is soft and swirling, a real triumph. It delivers gentle crispness and finished with tingly citrus drive. 92 points' - Nick Stock, Good Wine Guide 2013

Seppelt Chalambar is sourced from fruit from a number of premier Victorian wine regions allowing the expert winemaking team to source the very best fruit year in, year out. In recent years the Chalambar has achieved wide acclaim for not only its approachability upon release, but its inherent ability to age superbly for such an affordable wine. Notes of black fruits, pepper and a delicate angle of spice that grows even more complexity through the length of flavour. With a tannin structure and oak regime that can only be described as exemplary, Chalambar deserves to be in your cellar and on your table.

Five generations of Fonseca Guimaraens have maintained the quality and style of this fine reserve blend. Bin no. 27 is the family's private cellar, bottled in Oporto and ready to drink now.

Penfolds Father Grand Tawny pays tribute to 169 years of winemaking excellence. A blend of many outstanding tawny components separately matured in seasoned old oak casks, with a minimum blended average age of ten years. The results yields a wine of generous concentration, vitality, exceptional balance of fruit and oak age complexity. The tawny lingers in the mouth, finishing clean and tight.

Made as a fruit-driven enjoy now style, this Devil's Corner Pinot from Tasmania's Tamar region shows layers of dusty cherry, well integrated spices and subtle oak on the palate. A generous savoury and seductive palate with a light astringency. Very interesting cool climate Pinot packed with great value.

Penfolds Bin 2 Shiraz Mataro (also known as Mourvèdre) has a history going back to 1960 when Penfolds made a traditional "Burgundy" style. Penfolds have always loved Mataro (Mourvèdre) for its fantastic ability to blend marvelously with traditional South Australian stalwarts like Shiraz. Adding luscious complexity and palate grip, the Bin 2 is aged in older oak to emphasise the spicy savouriness of Mataro (Mourvèdre) that complements the plush richness of Shiraz.

A British classic - blending some of Jerez's finest Sherries: fino, amontillados and olorosos. This provides a smooth and silky mellow finish with a rich complex palate.
