RIPOSTE BY TIM KNAPPSTEIN The Scimitar Riesling, Clare Valley

This wine is wonderfull. Aromas of pear & apple with a sweet fruity body. Delectable. Like you.

One of Australia's favourite Moscatos, the Brown Brothers Moscato is a delightful reminder of of the warmer months with its aromas of musk and freshly crushed grapes. Wonderfully spritzy on the palate, this aromatic sweet white has abundant flavours of sherbet and crunchy tropical fruits. Enjoy chilled with great friends.

Brown Brothers have added the Prosecco Rosato to join the original, and much loved, Prosecco. In the glass there is a rose-gold colour and a soft nose of strawberry and apple skins. With the addition of a touch of Cienna to the Prosecco, the sparkling wine retains its trademark acidity while showcasing a softer, rounder side to the palate. Brown Brothers Prosecco Rosato is made to be enjoyed young while at its light and delicate best. (Limited edition bottle**)

Crafted for the conscious consumer, Tread Softly is certified sustainable, made with modern vineyard and water management techniques to minimise environmental impact. It is bottled in sustainable, lightweight glass and the wine styles are balanced, medium weighted and naturally lighter in alcohol. Since 2019, the brand has planted a tree for every case sold in efforts to reduce their carbon footprint and to date, has planted 2.6 million trees in the ‘Tread Softly Forest’ (and counting)…. Tasting Note: It’s wine, but not quite. Built on a base of crisp Pinot Grigio, this spritzer brings subtle citrus and green apple notes to life, elevated by the gentle sweetness of natural white peach. Delicate stone fruit flavours complement the soft, refreshing spritz, offering a light, bright palate that’s balanced and effortlessly drinkable. Fresh, fruity, and just the right amount of bubbly.

This Moscato Rose has a vibrant strawberry pink hue, giving it a light and delicate appearance. Rose petal and red berry aromas along with freshly crushed grapes and a spicy perfume dominate the nose. These characters follow through to the palate along with a fruitiness that is balanced by acidity and spritz. A wine of universal appeal, the retained natural carbon dioxide from fermentation gives a mild frizzante effect resulting in a lively and fresh wine. Serve well chilled and enjoy while young and vibrant.

With access to some of the very best vineyard land in the King Valley, Brown Brothers are able to craft an authentic Prosecco with all the hallmarks this style has become famous for. The elevated terroir produces a sparkling that is both crisp and gentle, with delicate lemon-pear flavours. Lively acidity through the palate complemented by a terrific long finish. The Italian influence here is for all to see. (Limited edition bottle**)

Jacob's Creek Chardonnay Pinot Noir Sparkling is the favourite of many Fine Wine Managers at Dan Murphy's as the ultimate "party" sparkling wine. Jacob's Creek Chardonnay Pinot Noir consistently out shines the more expensive opposition for freshness and vibrancy. The citrus and toasted cashew flavours of Chardonnay are married beautifully to the fresh bread crust characters of Pinot Noir.

Following in the footsteps of the highly successful La Planchaliere rosé, we present a sparkling version in a handy can format. The wine is produced from grenache and cinsault and is a beautiful French rosé in colour. The bouquet presents delicate notes of strawberries and red berries such as raspberries and fresh cherries. The palate dances nicely between fresh fruits, citrus characters and a lovely clean, crispness.

For over 100 years, Australians have marked special occasions and celebrations with a bottle of Minchinbury. Delicate and wonderfully delicious, Minchinbury wines are now even finer and more premium than ever before. The 'Crisp' Classic Brut is an exciting, racy sparkling style with a citrus backbone and brilliant length. Ideal for the party season with its striking packaging and vibrant flavour.

A wine with the pizzazz of a unicorn, but the serious expression of a rhino, it will charge the palate with a surprising blend of citrus floral aromas & crisp fresh fruit flavours. Dazzling not just to the eye but to every sense.
