Bright, intense colour and complex aromas evoking violet and black cherry with notes of truffle and game. Good balance between texture and acidity with a long aftertaste.
Joseph Drouhin Chambolle Musigny Premier Cru 2022 750mL
Begins with a frisson of fine French oak and smoky sandalwood before plunging into a full fruit basket; plums, mulberries, blackberries, and blackcurrants. The palate pulses with fruit filled verve. Rosehip, and cocoa notes. Leather, bay, and thyme.
Pale to medium brick red in colour, this wine is filled with aromas of spice, cherry and strawberry with subtle hints of sweet oak undertone. The palate displays juicy cherry and rhubarb flavours with soft tannins and a lingering finish.
Shiraz and cola soda flavour, a pairing that sounds criminal but tastes incredible. Calimocho Cola, delivers juicy berry fruit, a spark of ginger heat and a kick of pepper, all balanced by bright acidity that keeps every sip fresh. It’s rich, bold and just the right amount of rebellious. Serve it over ice or pour it straight from the bottle when you’re ready to taste how good breaking the rules can be.
Unmistakably, Grange, this 2012 vintage is complex, flamboyant and lifted. An aromatic multi-cultural characteristics. The earthiness is well integrated with the aromas of dark fruits, grounded coffee, red liquorice and black olives, which leads to a firmly structured finish.
Nitschke Block Shiraz displays rich, opulent fruit with a fantastic balance of texture. Lifted notes of greengage plums are first to emerge from what is a tightly-wound wine. There is also a warming spice element of subtle white pepper as well as some dark cherry and plum flavours.
Aromas of raspberry, red rose petal perfume, forest floor. The palate shows summer berry fruits, wild herbs, lively mouth feel with light sandy tannins. Raspberry chocolate bullets, black tea leaves and gutsy earthiness to finish, pleasant after grip and a sweet trickle of fruit on the back palate.
This is a very affordable Pinot from the highly regarded Tarrawarra winery with fruit sourced from the estate and the hills of southern NSW. A well made Pinot with good fruit depth and varietal flavour.
