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.
Torresella Pinot Grigio Rosé
Torresella Rosé is made from Pinot Grigio which has been grown in Northeastern Italy for over a century. Fresh delicate aromas on the nose, followed by mellow fruit and well balanced acidity on the palate. The perfect accompaniment for fish and seafood.
Yalumba Y Series Tempranillo
The 2014 Yalumba Y Series Tempranillo has aromas of blueberry, black cherry and fennel seed leaping from the glass. It is juicy and plush on the palate with apparent dark berries and mocha tannins. The finish is rustic and savoury. Enjoy with salt and pepper grilled lamb cutlet.
Aradon Rioja
A rich unmistakable Rioja jammed packed with flavours of ripe dark berries and plum. This bargain has been a favourite of ours for a while now and is a fabulous match to hearty casseroles and spicy sausages.
Pillastro Primitivo
It’s no coincidence Pillastro is one of our bestselling Italian reds – customers love all that richness, warmth and bold, ripe fruit. Pillastro comes from Puglia, in Italy’s deep south, best known for big, smoky wines made from prized local varieties Primitivo and Negroamaro. It is made by Angelo Maci, a leading figure in the quality revolution of the last two decades, whose cellar Cantine Due Palme has twice been named Winery of the Year. Angelo made this wine purely from Primitivo, which produces rich, powerful reds with plenty of ripe fruit. A period of oak ageing has infused the wine’s generous plum and damson character with notes of spice and vanilla. Enjoy with hearty casseroles, pasta with a rich tomato sauce, or garlic roasted lamb.
Vinha do Fava Touriga Nacional
The word 'Nacional' is reserved for treasures that fly the flag for Portugal. Touriga Nacional certainly does that. Ten years ago the Freitas family planted the grape on their acclaimed Fava vineyard. In 2015 it produced a wine so special that it was bottled under the vineyard name for the first time ever. It won a string of Gold on its debut - making over 60 Golds in 10 years for this fine family estate. The 2016 won Grand Gold, and the 2017 here has won Gold, Double Gold, Grand Gold and Best in Show ... ! Dating back to 1920, Casa Ermelinda Freitas is run by fourth generation Leonor Freitas, who has been awarded a 'Comendadora' (equivalent to a Dame) for her services to Portuguese wine. Her daughter Joana follows in her footsteps. Aged in barrel, this rich red is packed with spicy berry, herb and mineral character. A top match with slow cooked beef or lamb.
Il Brutto Negroamaro Primitivo
Friends Pablo & Pedro Tempranillo
Australian made but with Spanish heritage evident upon opening, discover delicious aromas of red fruits, blackberries and a touch of spice on the nose. Followed by mouth-watering flavors of strawberries, vanilla, subtle oak and ripe tannins on the palate. Enjoy this juicy Tempranillo with tapas style dishes like croquettes, chorizo and olives or a wood-fired mozzarella pizza. The Pablo & Pedro Tempranillo is a great choice for garden parties on those sunny days.
Camino Real Joven Tempranillo
Violet colour with a hint of ruby. Compelling nose of fresh blackcurrants, plums, and other dark forest fruits. There is also a gentle herbal and oak notes. The palate is elegant and fruity wine, with different forest fruits, with raspberries and black cherries to the fore. Tannins are very soft and nicely balanced with acidity. Rioja, from Spain. The cradle of noble lineages for centuries, still conceals an ancient path that winds its way to the monasteries of San Millan De La Cogolla. A hidden pathway, once reserved for royalty, which still thrives today, all thanks to the sole heir who has kept the lineage alive. The wine of kings.
