2012 Tohu Sauvignon Blanc   Very pleasing, crisp fruit aromas and a definite touch of green as well although we don't detect much herbaceousness on the palate. As our Hawaiian friends say, Lilikoi is dominant - that's passionfruit for the mainlanders - with great acidity and a long, crisp finish. Loved a pairing with fish tacos on corn tortillas with tilapia, a spoonful of mashed avocado, and cabbage sprinkled with lime juice. "This fresh and focused Sauvignon has bright aromas of citrus, apples and passionfruit with a distinct fresh cut grass herbaceous line running through it. On the palate the fresh fruit shines through with more green apples, lemongrass and passionfruit given focus by some fresh natural acidity, a touch of sweetness but finishing with a dry minerality."

2012 Tim Adams Riesling   his wine is really yummy, flavorful, dry and zippy now and you can just taste the future and it will be really scrumptious. So well balanced, so dry, and just the right amount of fruit - we get white stone fruits. "The use of only the free run juice has resulted in this wine being very intensely flavoured and aromatic. The wine has very lifted Riesling character with citrus aromatics of lime, lemon and grapefruit. The palate is seamless with moderate viscosity and brisk acid finish. Use as an aperitif or with any seafood. Riesling wines from Clare Valley are most enjoyable when young and zesty, or left to mature beyond five years of age." Learn More ... |

2012 Mulderbosch Rose   Promising delicate aromas of warm red fruit and stone follow through on the palate together with some earthiness. Really nice long dry finish too. Fabulous dinner warm up with hummus or your favorite shrimp hors d'oeuvre concoction and paired nicely with our poached salmon too. Way too easy to sip, but at 12.5%, go for it! "A sexy pink colour with lively hues. The nose combines aromas of ripe blood-orange, cherry-drops and black currant cordial with fragrant sandalwood whiffs. The gorgeously weighted palate balances juicy fruit flavours with racy acidity and finishes on a pleasantly persistent, zesty note" Learn More ... |

2011 Neudorf Nelson Chardonnay 4.5 Stars BC Toasty oak, pie dough, bright and flavorful, this Chardonnay packs a nice acidic punch and pairs really well with all kinds of cheeses, shellfish, guacamole - chips are optional - and dishes with butter sauteed mushrooms or polenta. "White gold in colour with hints of peach skin and nectarine and citrus notes followed by a complex and nutty palate. The use of oak is restrained and supportive without being overbearing. The wine is in its early stages but is already showing the beautiful balance and poise of the Neudorf Chardonnay stable. Chardonnay is delicious with crayfish, groper and rich, white meat dishes."

2011 Mullineux White Blend 92 ST; 4.5/5 Stars John Platter Think of a cold, fresh stream burbling over rocks in the warm sun, and a lime tree almost ready to flower in the background and you have this wine -- rich, stone dry, a whiff of green citrus and oh so good! Oysters, cheese, salad, or your own perfect setting. "Lemon-straw in colour, this wine has a nose of crushed rocks, green citrus, cloves and a floral perfume. The palate is full, rich and has a mineral core, with a fresh, clove-like finish. this wine will show optimally when decanted in the first 3 years after bottling." Learn More ... |

2011 Mullineux Straw Wine 5 Stars John Platter "The nose is a complex, enticing blend of dried peaches, apricots and marmalade, with savory, nutty aromas of almonds, marzipan and honey." "Deep golden straw in colour, with a rich, viscous appearance. The nose is a complex, enticing blend of dried peaches, apricots and marmalade, with savory, nutty aromas of almonds, marzipan and honey.

2011 Fowles Stone Dwellers Chardonnay 91 WS Strathbogie is wild! The Stone Dwellers Chardonnay has crazy good crisp apple and pear flavors rolling around in the mouth while strangely absorbing mineral scents fill the nose. A truly great example of terroir in a glass. "This wine is straw in colour with a fresh green hue. Aromas of peach and pawpaw meld with oak spice and yeasty notes. The palate is full bodied, marrying hints of zest with a delightful creaminess resulting from 10 months on yeast lees." Learn More ... |

2011 Boekenhoutskloof The Chocolate Block   Always Syrah dominant as the wonderful bittersweet chocolate flavors derive from the Malmesbury Syrah, this blend also has some juicy dark berry and peppery flavors. Very food friendly as the wine's acidity is in balance. Roasted pork with sage, roasted lamb with rosemary, coffee and pepper rubbed roast beef, or roasted ice cream....just testing on the last one to see if you noticed. "The influence of the Grenache’s red fruits on this wine is striking. The nose shows an abundance of redcurrant, plums, crushed rock, and an array of spices. The floral notes adds to its complexity. The freshness of the wine puts its head in front of the previous vintages. Spicy oak aromas cover a rounded mid-palate that reveals layers of fruit with intense purity. Textured, composed and seamless in style." Learn More ... |

2010 Tim Adams Shiraz   Intense yet elegant, especially after a bit of air, the long, dark and juicy fruit flavors are kissed lightly by licorice and oak. Clearly has the balance and oomph for cellaring. Pairs well with the usual culprits - lamb, duck and dishes with exotic spices - and also with pepper steak, roasted turkey with cranberry, or your favorite chair and a good mystery. "The palate is full and soft in front and middle, with flavour of small berry fruit and again the oak complimenting the fruit. The finish is medium firm with tannins coming from both fruit and oak. This wine has power and finesse which makes it both approachable now and worth keeping for up to 10 years in good conditions." Learn More ... |

2010 Rolf Binder Shiraz Hales 90+ WA; 93 JH Wonderful, rich red Barossa fruit with characteristic hints of licorice and black pepper. The Rolf Binders Hales Shiraz is a very satisfying, long mouthful of great flavors to pair with anything off the barbecue or dishes spiced with cinnamon, coriander, cumin or anise. "This deep blood red wine fills the glass with aromas reminiscent of rich red berries and dark bitter chocolate. Dark cherries enhanced with cassis, anise and pepper mingle on the medium to full bodied palate. Creamy tannins and complex acidity lends to the overall perception of a smooth, rich red wine, with a nice persistence of flavour." Learn More ... |
