FEBRUARY 2009
Pinot Noir - A medium bodied red wine with plenty of fruit and a warm, complex aroma. Excellent with hard cheeses or served slightly chilled with chicken, duck or game.
Riesling Auslese – An intensely flavoured, slightly off-dry German white with luscious flavours of green apple, peaches and tropical fruits. Great with spicy ethnic dishes.
MARCH 2009
Chilean Cabernet Sauvignon – This full bodied red wine is deep garnet in colour with a surprisingly smooth finish. It’s abundant flavour and berry nose is nicely balanced with mellow, toasted oak. Great with steaks, roasts, burgers and BBQ ribs.
White Merlot - This refreshing wine is created by its deliberately brief exposure of the crushed Merlot grape skins with the Merlot juice which results in an inviting salmon colour. White Merlot blush has a lush, fruity character making it an excellent choice for relaxing with friends.
APRIL 2010
Meritage Rouge – This is a traditional Bordeaux style blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot with a touch of Syrah (Shiraz). It has abundant flavours of blackberry and plum with good tannins, nicely balanced with oak. An excellent table wine.
Chardonnay – A full bodied white with subtle tropical fruit aroma and crisp citrus flavours. A refreshing, clean finish with a toasty oak charm.
