France

Southern Rhone, France. A brilliant, green gold colour. The nose shows very pure floral aro­mas that mingle with citrus and pre­served fruit. On the palate, the wine has similar fla­vours, with an added touch of honey. It finishes clean and clear, with fla­vours of flowers and fresh almonds...

Northern Rhone, France.  The wine has a deep garnet red color. It is fruity on the nose with strong aromas of cassis, plums and a touch of violets. The tannic structure is ample and well rounded, which assures good aging potential. It is recommended with game, grilled and rich foods...

Alsace, France. Note: Note: From vineyards located in Wettolseim and Kientzheim grown on marly-limestone. Clear and delicate. Lovely lifted floral rose and peony aromas. On the palate, rich rounded exotic tropical fruit flavours with a beautiful core of clean refreshing acid. DELIGHTFUL.

Alsace, France. From vineyards located in Wettolseim and Kientzheim A tasty Alsace with restrained but distinctive acidity and fruit. Tight nose of slightly sharp pear fruit and petrol.

Alsace, France. Note: From an assemblage of old vines. Bright, deeper yellow. The honeyed/roast nut aromas draw you in and then there is a lick of spicy pineapple. Full and rich on the palate with a touch of honey sweetness filling out the flavours and adding to the texture. For a wine with such lovely power it dances lightly on the finish!

Alsace, France. Note: From an assemblage of old vines from the Rosenberg and Altenbourg vineyards. Bright straw-green. Blood orange and lemon aromas.

Lovely concentration here, very nicely balanced, finishing with bright acidity and lingering lemon and a lick of spice and herb. A lesson in purity!

Alsace, France. Note: Note: the Schlossberg is a brilliantly tightly focused, mineral interpretation of the great Rielsing grape. With a pale gold colour the Schlossberg combines power and finesse. Apple, spice, mineral and wax integrate with the sinewy structure and rich texture. The length of this wine is extraordinary.

Loire Valley, France. Versatility is what this Sauvignon Blanc is all about. Fumé means ‘smoky’ in French which is a key indication of the style. Intense and complex floral aromas melt into smoky, mineral flavours coupled with a refreshing citrus and grapefruit edge. It has a great rounded mouth-feel and an uplifting dry finish...

Loire Valley, France. This is seriously good Sauvignon Blanc from France’s Loire Valley. Very different in style to the Australian and New Zealand savvy’s to which we’ve become accustomed, this quality white is built around a core of flinty, mineral aromas. As the wine opens up, delicate fruity pear nuances emerge. A wonderfully balanced wine, the style is fresh, rich and lively...
