From the Hunter Valley region NSW this wine has the distinctive fresh tropical fruit flavours of the Verdelho grape. With flavours of ripe melon and fig it is a wine worthy of any long afternoon lounging around. 'ALONG with the focus on fresh-faced chardonnays there is this variety, which is increasingly picked and crafted into a zingy style, more than richer, flabbier, duller versions. This bargain highlights such contemporary success: a dash of lime over custard apple and a light creaminess to mirror the fruit, spicy noted with a fruit sweetness sure to rock with chilli salted seafood.' - Daily Telegraph, Tony Love.

This is a celebration of The Stubborn Few - A minority who, threw caution to the wind and forged the way for modern Australian wine making. One of them, a South Australian, defied preconceptions and invented wine cask, breaking the rules just to keep his wine fresh. A box makes perfect sense. Its airtight, economical and environmentally friendly. The Stubborn Few Rose is bright and displays fruity flavours of fresh strawberries and pink grapefruit. So kick back and raise a glass to thinking outside of the box.

The colour is light, bright and glistening. The wine displays aromatics of lifted grass with tropical guava and lychee. The palate shows a crunchy textural component which lingers to a refreshing dry finish and a subtle flinty minerality which is characteristic of the Hamilton Road vineyard.

A lovely off white, copper hue to the wine. Not quite rose, but a really appealing blush. The nose has mandarin peel, fennel and a touch of funk and wet earth. Palate is racy, with cumquat and dried flower notes. Finishes with a vanilla note, and a savoury, phenolic bite. Theres skinsy and bunchy notes throughout, but they are in harmony with the pristine fruit and energy of a white wine from this cool, humid year.

The love affair with alternative Italian varietals continues at David Hook wines. Pecorino is a new arrival, but it was well worth the wait. So latent yet complex.Very pale with a silver fleck. Grapefruit pith, yellow apple and almond aromas. Light-bodied yet very expressive with a bright mix of white and yellow fruit, an underlying nutty layer, mouth-watering acidity and a touch of talc-like grip.

Altan is a unique wine that is characterized by dominant aromas of pear and peach, while in the background the herbal notes of elderberry, basil and aromatic herbs gently appear. The taste accompanies the smell and is quite complex. It has a pronounced body and an excellent balance of acids, which makes this wine refreshing. The wine stays in the mouth for a long time, leaving a pleasant feeling of fullness and harmony. We recommend that it be consumed chilled at a temperature of 8-10
