The wine tastes remarkably good: concentrated, aromatic, and complex. The speed with which the grapes became concentrated preserved magnificent vivaciousness. The wines are truly brilliant.

The first whiff of this restrained Sauvignon Blanc indicates a departure from the hugely aromatic styles of Marlborough. It has a delicate floral nose with an inkling of Indian spice while the fruit is more stone-fruit than tropical. The palate is elegant, texturally soft with a mouthfeel of freshness and breadth. The cool climate of the Loire produces wines with distinctive freshness, a lean acidity and a spicy or steely spine.

Wolfberger Alsace Yellow Riesling has become quite a favourite amongst our first Choice customers. Refreshing, yet racy on the mouth, this is a wine with lovely fruit flavours and a long finish. It's unlike what you've come to expect from Australian Rieslings with a touch of residual sweetness on the finish making it perfect with shellfish and sushi.

Perfumed yet savory on the nose and medium to medium-full bodied on the palate, with aromas of fresh apricots and honeyed beeswax, as it is made from Marsanne. This wine is somewhat exotic and is famously paired with local cheeses in their home Minervois region of western Languedoc in southern France.

Exclusive to Dan Murphy's, the Arrogant Front Ribet Syrah Rosé from the South of France is bright cherry pink in colour, has lifted floral aromas with ripe cherry and strawberry flavours and a pleasantly dry finish. Excellent with picnics!

Made from one of the oldest Languedoc grapes, Belardent is an outstanding white wine from the Mediterranean sea shores. Carefully crafted according to Appellation winemaking specification, it also benefits from the winemaking history of its production area. Refreshing, it has lovely aromas of citrus and mineral flavours that will get along perfectly with seafood delights! The Picpoul de Pinet winegrowing area runs along the southern French coast, separated from the waves of the Mediterranean only by the Etang de Thau. This lagoon is Frances second largest lake. Harboured by the town of Sète, it is famous for its delicious oysters that are the perfect combination for a Picpoul de Pinet. The Picpoul de Pinet terroir consists of a triangle bounded by Agde, Pézenas and Sète : a limestone plateau basking in the rising sun covered with highly perfumed garrigue, rows of vines, and scattered pine groves. Thanks to its terroir, the region produces mineral wines with lovely and refreshing citrus aromas.
