Ghost Rock Cradle Riesling
Fruit from Tasmanias smallest, most maritime wine region the Cradle Coast. Harvested in mid April, fruit was immediately pressed off skins with only free-run juice retained. Fermentation was ceased at the desired residual sugar level to ensure a total integration of wine components. Lees stirring also introduced during maturation for texture and aromatic depth. Winemaker Justin Arnold, has absolutely nailed this wine! It delivers plenty of lively acidity but also generous mid palate weight. Think lime blossom, mandarin, sea spray and green pineapple. An oysters best friend!

Umamu Estate Sauvignon Blanc Semillon
Umamu Estate only releases their wines when theyve had time to develop in the bottle and this Sauvignon Blanc Semillon is drinking beautifully now. In the glass: Beautifully vibrant bright lemon with a still-youthful green tint. On the nose: Lifted mix of toast and honey development. On the palate: Rich and beautifully developed with a lovely warm core of buttered toast, preserved lemon and lemon curd in a terrifically textured, layered and complex wine. So remarkably fresh and complex.
Caravan Sauvignon Blanc
John Quarisa, aka Johnny Q, is a terrific winemaker, creating wines that, like him, can be lively and highly charged. In his Caravan wine series, he likes to think of a grape that changes in style as it travels. So that here, Sauvignon Blanc grown in his Riverina vineyards produces a wine still with loads of grassy fresh zip, but along the way, has developed more tropical fruit flavours too. That is peach, pineapple and passionfruit! He insists on night harvested grapes to ensure lots of bright fresh flavours and cool ferments them for the same reason. This wine previously won a Gold medal and we think the 2021 vintage is tasting just as good – it's a fridge-door-must! Chill down and enjoy as a glass on its own or with spicy Thai dishes.
