The Tar & Roses Tempranillo is a great example of what 20 year old Tempranillo vines are achieving in Australia. On the nose there are juicy rich mulberries, freshly dug earth with hints of blackcurrant and aniseed. The palate has impressive length, balance and structure.

Tucked away nicely in the Adelaide Hills, Sidewood Estate have made an art form out of crafting some of the very best single vineyard cool-climate wines available in Australia. Owen and Cassandra Inglis purchased the boutique property in 2004 and immediately set about making their vision become a reality. Their Sidewood Shiraz displays that vision to perfection. Attention to detail is the key here which enables flavours of red cherry, currants and dark plum to shine through along with hints of cinnamon and spice. The texture is beguiling and gives promise to a wine that will age for up to a decade.

Dark fruits, medium bodied with fragrant spice, finishing with gentle tannins.

Soft rounded and fruit-driven this is a good example of the approachable easy drinking Merlot variety. Generous plummy flavour with just a touch of oak and light tannins make this wine enjoyable now.</p>

Azulejos (“tiles” in English) are a quintessential part of Spanish art, just as wine. Each region in Spain has its own distinct style of producing the azulejos. With this collection of wines we pair the most attractive and trendiest wine regions with a particular azulejo style, using a modern approach that results in a pairing that brings out the best qualities of both. This Tempranillo originates from the region of Rioja. Made in a modern, fruit-forward style, this wine is bright with violet hues and a cherry red rim. Aromas of ripe blackcurrant, cherries and prunes are supported with notes of vanilla, shaved coconut and spices. Smooth and silky on the palate with sweet, plush tannins and a balanced, pleasant and persistent finish.

The vineyards of Monção e Melgaço are located in Portugal's north, close to the border of Spain and near the coastline. This fresh, fruity light bodied white wine displays flavours of peach and apricot with a lick of salt. Made to be drunk while young and fresh, Vinho Verde is best served chilled with accompanying seafood dishes and white meat.

"Mario Piccini opens the doors of his cellar, inviting you to taste his "Collezione Privata" (Italian for "Private Collection"). This selection has been meticulously curated by Mario Piccini himself, and his signature on each bottle stands as a personal guarantee of the wine's quality. A blend of Merlot (40%), Cabernet Sauvignon (20%), Syrah (205) and Sangiovese (20%). The bouquet reveals rich notes of spice, chocolate, ripe plums and blackberries. Flavours of licorice and ripe fruit dance on the palate while supple tannins contribute to a velvety texture. This is a harmonious and well-structured wine with rich complexity and a long, lingering finish. It is complex and harmonious".

Named after Alfred Pizzini's grandmother, this is a medium bodied Sangiovese - warm and humble just like its namesake. Aromas of lightly spiced plums and cherries lead to hints of chocolate, leather and lovely savoury characters. The palate is generous and full flavoured with good length, soft tannins and flavours of plums and cherries.

Valcatrina Tinto has a good concentration on the nose. Rich in aroma with notes of black ripe fruit combined with notes of spices from the ageing in oak barrels. In the mouth it presents good structure with ripe tannins. The aftertaste is rich, elegant and long.
