If ever there was a wine to counter the conventional wisdom, it must be Dal Zotto Estate Prosecco, the fun and fizzy Italian sparkling wine from the King Valley. Throw out those notions that proper bubbly must be hand made stuff, made from only the noblest of grapes. This is a classic Prosecco styling, the version which combines the varietal’s aromatic quality with the exalted sapidity of its fine bubbles. To be opened for a dolce vita, anywhere and at anytime! "Poles apart from the fruity sparklers that flood the local market and it should win plenty of converts!" -Peter Bourne |
Time has revealed the Eden Valley to be a natural home for Riesling which, to quote Peter Lehmann, is the noblest white wine variety. Lehmann's Eden Valley has the unique distinction of being awarded Trophy for Best Riesling in the World at the London International Wine and Spirit Competition five times, more than any winemaker in the world. "A firmly bodied palate tight with fine minerally textures, and even now, a sense that its future has a honey glow!" -Adelaide Advertiser, "Peter Lehmann Rieslings shine regularly on the world stage!" -Telegraph |
Pinocchio is where Garry and Rollo Crittenden have a little more fun than usual. Over the years, the awareness of Sangiovese has expanded as wine lovers begin to discover how different the Italian reds are from French varietals, and have come to appreciate the inherent synergy between Sangiovese and food. The distinguishing character of Sangiovese should be one of savouryness and refreshing acids around an impression of morello cherry. Pinocchio will appeal to the adventurous and to red wine enthusiasts who are looking for something new |
Consistently one of Mornington's very best, a meticulously crafted single vineyard Chardonnay. "Kooyong has emerged as one of the Mornington Peninsula’s great chardonnays of recent years. The 2006 edition has a quietly complex nose that harmoniously combines yeasty lees, butter-cream, nectarine and gentle oak aromas. It has a seductive texture and complex flavour!" -Age Epicure, "Sheer class. A pure fruit focus with plenty of weight. This is what great chardonnay is all about, revelling in its delicious freshness and power!" -Canberra Times |
The Wolf Blass winemaking team are blessed with an exhaustive range of source vineyards. Constant contact with growers ensures that the fruit is carefully maintained to produce wines bursting with flavours and pure varietal characters. Clare Valley Shiraz is rich and elegant with a tight minerally fragrance, the Barossa component adds depth and structure to the palate, McLaren Vale contributes ripe berry characters. The individual parcels complete their fermentation in fine grained American and French oak, a wine of finesse and complexity |
Stepping Stone determine the precise time to harvest their Cabernet grapes on the basis of complete flavour development and tannin ripeness. The Father Woods property, from which much of the fruit will be sourced, is located at the northern end of the Coonawarra Terra rossa strip. The site is meticulously managed and stands out as the largest hand pruned vineyard within Coonawarra. Stepping Stone is the complete Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon, with a full palate of sweet blackberry fruit, judicious, integrated oak and ripe, smooth tannins |
Super Bin 389 & 407
Value packed Bin 128 & 28
Over the last forty years Penfolds Bin 389 has developed a strong identity for consistency, reliability and exceptional value. Components of the wine are matured in the same barrels that held the previous vintage of Grange. Wine lovers enjoy it because it's delicious and ready to drink immediately upon release. |
A textbook Cabernet, the varietally expressive Bin 407 highlights the virtue of sensitive vineyard blending, bold Cabernet flavours are supported by a judicious use of soft oak. Magnificent Cabernet, bursting with a rich panoply of cedary highlights which wrap themselves around the thick berry fruit flavours. |
Introduced as one of the first Bin wines within the Penfolds portfolio, it has become an Australian classic. Penfolds Bin 28 is a ripe fleshy warm-climate Shiraz offering structure and generosity of flavour. Bin 128 has claimed an impressive chestful of awards and was twice named Red of the Year at the London International. |
In 1960 Bill Redman persuaded Max Schubert to acquire a parcel of Coonawarra, and the Bin 128 experience began. The only Penfolds to be pure Coonawarra, it was originally labelled as Claret, and whilst the quality has increased immeasurably, very little has changed about how Bin 128 is made. |
