Eden Valley, South Australia.  A beautifully textural wine yet a pure, clean, mineral finish. Chill and drink now and leave us to hold back some museum stock to see how it evolves over the next decade...

Marlborough, New Zealand.  A rich rounded wine with plenty of white stone-fruit characters of peach and nectarine. This fruit is further enhanced by the natural acidity and is balanced by the use of french oak to provide a fresh lingering finish...

Yarra Valley, Victoria. This sparkling Pinot Noir strikes a perfect balance between fruit sweetness and balanced acidity. The fruit is handpicked early in the season, whole bunch pressed to tank and cold settled for 3 days, after which it is racked to a separate tank and cool fermented for 6 weeks. Methode Charmat is then used to create this beautiful sparkling with a fine bead...

 

Campania, Italy. The Lacrimarosa project is one of pursuit of perfection. The tradition of rosé production for the Mastroberardino family has deep roots.

Kremstal, Austria. Discreet, finely aromatic nose with elegant, almost graceful fruit, cool notes, a hint of fresh herbs, subtle minerality, delicately juicy with a firm acid structure, elegant with a crisp bite, fresh and radiant, appealing, animated drinking.

Showing its cooler climate, this Bourgogne Côtes d'Auxerre features vibrant acidity and freshness alongside a distinct aromatic density punctuated by white flowers, golden apple, wet stone, and Sorrento lemon. This is delicious Bourgogne Chardonnay...

Piedmont, Italy. The colour is garnet red with orange reflection; the bouquet is characteristic, ethereal, pleasing and intense. The flavour is dry, full, velvety and harmonious...

McLaren Vale, South Australia.  The bouquet displays briary blackberry, prune, violets and black olive with hints of subtle vanillin oak and toasted almond. On the palate intense black cherry, blueberry, liquorice and spicy red currant are complemented by hints of musk and cedary oak. All enveloped in fine grained savoury French oak. The wine has a beautifully integrated seam of firm tannin and long sustained finish. Aerate extensively to drink now or will age gracefully with correct cellaring...
