Oyster Bay Sauvignon Blanc 2006, Marlborough
|
|
The Oyster Bay Estate takes great care in treating each batch of wine as individual. Cool fermentation and immediate bottling is completed to retain all the wonderful fruit aromas and flavours that are present. Pronounced aromas of gooseberry and tropical fruits sit alongside a subtle herbaceousness creating a crisp, elegant and refreshing wine.

The Quincy appellation produces dry, aromatic wines very much in the same mould as Sancerre. From a young and dynamic producer it offers spring flowers on the nose and refreshing greengage flavours on the palate.

Swan Bay Pinot Noir 2006, Scotchman's Hill, Geelong
|
|
'...Bright, pure and heaving with berry fruit, you will not believe just how gorgeous this wine is. It is my favourite under-a-tenner Pinot this year. Bring the temperature down a few degrees and you'll be hypnotised by the wild strawberry, plum and cherry notes.' Matthew Jukes, The Daily Mail.

Vigneto Solimpia 2004, Castello della Paneretta
|
|
Based in the Classico part of Chianti, this is a great example of what can be achieved from sun-drenched Tuscany. Solimpia is a pure Sangiovese wine that emphasises the fruit characteristics of the grape variety. This distinctively earthy flavoured wine offers aromas of bitter-sweet cherries and spice. Rich, with firm, dry, herbal tones on the finish, enjoy with full-flavoured pasta dishes with parmesan or red meats.

Albari±o Martin Codax 2005, Rias Baixas
|
|
Albari±o is the white grape variety of note from Spain with a style very similar to Viognier. It offers a delicate yet forceful peachy aroma on the nose and palate and is a great choice if you prefer something a little different to Chardonnay.
