Jim Barry 'Barry & Sons' Shiraz
A pioneer of the Australian wine industry, Jim Barry was responsible for shaping South Australia's Clare Valley as a benchmark producer of world-class shiraz and cabernet sauvignon. Today, two generations of the Barry family ensure his legacy grows and continues on, constantly innovating and producing high-quality wines. GOLD! A true standout and a new addition to the Jim Barry stables, featuring plenty of black fruits and measured spice supported by toasty oak - this medium, tending full-bodied shiraz is a real winner and a must try! GOLD Royal Adelaide Wine Show 2016.
Knappstein Clare Valley Riesling
Aromas of freshly cut green apple blend with fennel and vanilla on a complex but restrained nose. The palate bursts with flavours of lime juice and white blossoms. The acid is firm but harmonious and drives the palate long through the finish. The wine finishes with a lovely dryness and feeling of refreshment.
Atlas Wines Clare Valley Fiano
Pale straw colour with youthful green hues. The nose is lifted and complex with aromas of bergamot pear, lemon-lime citrus, beeswax and hints of almond. The palate is medium bodied, crisp and textural with pear drop, lemon curd and papaya flavours of supported by refreshing acidity leading to a fine, dry finish.
Knappstein Hand Picked Riesling
Another classic Riesling from the Clare Valley! Lemon and lime with some floral notes on the nose are matched with long citrus flavours and crisp acidity. Enjoy young and fresh or with bottle age.
Chapel Hill Pinot Grigio
A dry, crispy white wine with pear, lemongrass and fresh herb flavours that delight the palate. Chapel Hill Pinot Grigio goes fantastically with food and is downright delicious alongside seafood dishes like salt and pepper squid. Jump on the Pinot Grigio bandwagon and enjoy the ride!
Kingston Estate Shiraz
In the glass: Medium to deep red. On the nose: Red berry, plum, leaf and earth. On the palate: Bright and ripe with an excellent core of red and black berry fruit, savoury, mouth-watering tannins and vibrant persitence. Will improve over the next year or so as the tannins become more silken.
Pewsey Vale Riesling
Louisa Rose is a master when it comes to Riesling and Pewsey Vale consistently over delivers on quality and value every vintage. The current vintage has racy lime juice and citrus blossom with driving mineral acidity on the finish. 'This may be the best-value single vine wine in the country. The cooler climate wine is energetic and precise, rippling with zesty citrus and a bit of blossom, a dusting of talc and sprinkling of lemon thyme. It is a textbook Eden Valley riesling' (2014 Vintage) - 5 Stars. - Adelaide Advertiser, 27 Aug 2014, Nick Ryan.

Wicks Estate Riesling
Riesling has a strong affinity for the cooler climes of the World, and it is therefore no surprise that it would produce wines of great character in the Adelaide Hills. Whilst we made the hard decision to graft some of our Riesling vines over to Pinot Noir some years back, we have retained only the most promising clones to produce our Riesling as its perhaps the top white pick amongst staff and remains a labour of love. The Riesling crop, whilst minuscule, showed hallmark varietal characters and fine acidity nurtured by the cool nights and warm sunny days. Careful sampling in the vineyard, paying particular attention to flavour development and acid levels, meant the fruit was harvested on the 14th of March when the ideal balance was reached. Lifted floral aromas and the lively citrus fruit intensity are finely balanced by the tight structure and crisp natural acidity.
