Dr Loosen Bernkasteler Lay Kabinett Riesling
How can something that is so light in alcohol have such incredible palate weight and texture? It's an art form and Ernst Loosen is a master. The Kabinett style means a decent lick of residual sugar, but the steely, crunchy acid means you'll hardly notice it. Simply stunning.
Spinifex Riesling
A quite amazing wine. Gains weight and texture from ultra low yield, highly concentrated fruit and a combination of fermentation methods.
St Hugo Riesling
An outstanding modern Australian Riesling with great cellaring potential. Careful winemaking allows the premium fruit from the pristine Eden Valley to take centre stage. The vibrant nose offers fragrant fresh lemon/lime blossom, with notes of bath salts.The refined palate is delicate and pure, showing a slaty minerality and a taut line of acidity.Ideal Drinking Window 2017 to 2032
Robert Stein 3rd Generation Chardonnay
Winemaker Jacob has done wonders with the 2014 vintage, producing this exceptional Chardonnay wine. 80% of the fruit was tank fermented on high lees while the remaining grapes were barrel fermented using wild yeasts. Partial malolactic fermentation followed, which gave the wine complexity, intensity and structure. The result is a modern-styled Chardonnay displaying a pale straw colour with light green hues. Blissful aromas of peach, grapefruit and citrus flow from its attractive nose, while the rich and juicy palate depicts concentrated fruit flavours that lead to a cleansing finish and a pleasing mouthfeel. Foods like creamy vegetable soups, pastas, risottos and fish pates pair well with this elegant white wine varietal.
Vinifera Organically Grown Chardonnay
A full-bodied Chardonnay with white peach and citrus notes complemented by hints of almond characters on the palate. Wild permentation and matured on lees, this wine displays a textural component that compliments the subtle oak influence.
Robert Stein Gewurztraminer
Not many people know how to pronounce Gewurztraminer, but we love to make and drink it. Our small block of traminer provided us with great fruit this year and the wine displays typical characteristics of Lychee and Turkish Delight. Very refreshing, with a lashing of sweetness and crisp acidity, this wine is great with any spicy food.
Wild Oats Mudgee Pinot Grigio
Wild Oats Pinot Grigio is deliciously easy to drink : crisp and light, with an appealing spic y aroma, with fresh lemon and pear notes and a pleasing mouthfeel. From Oatley family vineyards, this is brilliant with Asian salads and deep -fried seafood.
Tim Adams Riesling
Pristine vibrant nose of lime blossom lemon and green apple. Crisp and elegant with deep citrus flavours and a minerally touch on the back palate. Consistently fine Clare Riesling from this producer.
Skillogalee Riesling
Lush, almost tropical aromas of pineapple, bananas and melon - the palate exhibits steely minerally flavours without being overly acidic. An excellent advertisement for Clare Riesling.
Frogmore Creek Riesling
Frogmore Creek from Southern Tasmania is about as pure an expression of cool climate Riesling on could hope to find. A beautifully structured Riesling with elegant citrus flavours and vibrant acidity. Put it away for a while and reap the rewards.
