Moët & Chandon Brut Impérial Champagne, with its perfect balance of Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Pinot Meunier has become one of the world''s most-loved Champagnes. ''Moët'' is characterised by bright fruitiness and elegant maturity. The palate reveals subtle pear, citrus and brioche notes.

Straight up you’ve got those pine forest notes, white pepper and spices, and the gin is beautifully balanced with a delicious sweetness and nice tannins to finish.

The ABV of this totally unique gin is 37.8%, unlike Sloe Gin where the alcohol less than 30%. So it packs a punch and is ideal in a range of cocktails. The gin is unfiltered, so it will develop secondary fruit characters beyond two years, and is best consumed within two years of vintage.

Drink it young and fresh with red berry and spice characters, or enjoy it as it develops. Try it simply with lemon tonic.

Bright pale-medium straw colour with some green hues. A flamboyant lifted nose displaying floral citrus and tropical notes. These characters carry through to the palate, underpinned by lime, citrus and a hint of guava finished with a soft and pleasantly long finish.

Have it with... Grilled seafood or Asian cuisine

The 2018 Sandpiper Chardonnay is pale straw in colour with a vibrant green hue at the edge.  The nose displays white peach, kiwi and citrus fruits and are backed up by some subtle spice.  The palate follows with a generosity of fruit matched with refined French oak and delicate acidity. Altogether, this wine shows great texture, balance and length.

Planted in the late 19th century, the High Trellis vineyard was the first d'Arenberg vineyard to be trained above knee height. For the past four decades, a Cabernet Sauvignon has been produced from the vineyard to critical acclaim, even winning the Jimmy Watson trophy in 1969. Something that d'Arry reminds current winemaker, and son, Chester about often!

This McLaren Vale Chardonnay displays rich tropical fruit with subtle oak integration adding complexity. A trademark d'arenberg style, the overall balance indicates the potential to age well.

The grapes were sourced from Orange, a cool climate, high altitude region renowned for growing sauvignon blanc. The fruit was harvested in the very early hours of the morning when the fruit is at its coolest, then the grapes were lightly pressed and then fermented in stainless steel tanks. The wine spent some extended time on yeast lees to gain extra complexity and texture.

Beyond Broke Road Sauvignon Blanc is a vibrant and expressive cool climate style, showing snow pea, guava and passionfruit. The palate is well balanced between its vibrant citrus profile and a hint of grassy notes, with a crisp, refreshing acid profile.

The grapes were sourced from the Hilltops GI of NSW, a dry Southern inland area with cool nights and warm days making this an ideal cool climate Shiraz producing region. The fruit was picked in the cool of the night and processed without crushing the berries, this reduces the extraction of overt tannin, in favour of more fruit freshness and vibrancy. Maturation has been in older French oak puncheons (500lt) for 12 months, rounding out the wine without adding too much oak flavour.

Beyond Broke Road Hilltops Shiraz is a rich Australian Shiraz balanced by bright fresh spicy cool climate aromatics and finish, at its core dark plum, mulberry and liquorice are held in check by fresh subtle pepper spice and flinty mineral notes. A round rich full bodied shiraz with a fresh blue fruit line keeping the finish tight and moreish.

The melding of the three traditional Barossa varieties creates a tremendously complex and rewarding wine.

The Grenache and Mataro are from old bush vines that are pruned in the traditional ‘goblet’ style to a limited number of buds, reducing yields and promoting flavour and colour concentration. Only the free run component of the Shiraz is used in the blend to allow the Grenache identity to shine through.

Delicate garnet in colour, this Pinot Noir shows red cherry and raspberry aromatics, with layers of sweet spices and red fruits. The palate reveals further dark cherry and kirsch flavours. Pure Pinot Noir characters are supported by complex cinnamon and nutmeg spice flavours. Oak is seamlessly woven into the wine, with hints of char and subtle vanillin building on the spice profile in the fruit. Fine, supple tannins support the delicate acidity giving the wine great length of flavour. Our Pinot Noir is an expression of Yarra Valley Pinot Noir in a cooler year, with delicate and pure flavours, length of palate and finesse.

Lagavulin is an intense, smoky-sweet single malt with seaweed flavours and a huge finish, aged in oak casks for at least sixteen years. Deep amber gold, the nose has intense peat smoke with iodine and seaweed and a rich, deep sweetness. The palate has a rich, dried fruit sweetness with clouds of smoke and strong, barley-malt flavours, warming and intense. At the back of the mouth is an explosion of peppery smoke. The finish is huge, long, warming and peppery with a distinch appetising sweetness.

CRUNCHY TOFFEE WITH
SPICY HINTS OF CARDAMOM 

The Great American Rivers once transported fine oak casks filled with American bourbon towards New Orleans. Bourbon casks could only be used once, their aromas and flavours released quickly, without being exhausted by long maturation. Excellent for ageing single malt Scotch.

Our second release in the Age of Discovery collection and a first for us, Bourbon Cask Reserve is inspired by that history. It is our only expression exclusively matured in American bourbon casks, for 19 years. Creating a refined balance of spicy sweetness and rich dried fruit flavours.

One-of-a-kind and available in selected duty free outlets

Racy yet very textural. Powerful nose with an interesting combination of fruit and mineral whilst the palate has extreme impact and focus. Signature Giaconda flavours of meal and hazelnut, great length and balance. This is all about concentration with great finesse. Don't miss this as it should turn out to be a real classic.

Powerful and savoury; tightly coiled with fine savoury tannins and acidity working in with the graphite characters to produce a tensile wine. An explosion of flavours at the end; black cherry, pepper, smoked meats and briar notes concluding with a lone dry savoury finish.

Grange is arguably Australia’s most celebrated wine and is officially listed as a Heritage Icon of South Australia. Grange boasts an unbroken line of vintages from the experimental 1951 and clearly demonstrates the synergy between Shiraz and the soils and climates of South Australia. Penfolds Grange utilises fully-ripe, intensely-flavoured and textured Shiraz grapes. The result is a unique Australian style that is now recognised as one of the most consistent of the world’s great wines. The Grange style is the original and most powerful expression of Penfolds multi-vineyard, multi-district, blending philosophy.

VINTAGE CONDITIONS

Near-optimum rainfall over winter, followed by dry, mild conditions over spring provided a good environment for budburst and an ideal start to the growing season with canopies developing well. Climatic conditions favoured flowering and set with mild and calm weather, however there was some shatter in Shiraz across parts of the state resulting in small crops for many regions. Some early to mid-December summer rainfall was followed by conditions drying up very quickly and continuing until the end of February. Summer was hot with some extreme heat but cool conditions returned in February and March, allowing the fruit to ripen across a long harvest with balanced acidities and excellent tannin ripeness. An elegant, yet still powerful follow up to the conditions brought about in the preceding 2008 vintage.

NOSE

At once Grange – formic, assertive, powerful… with overt barrel-ferment markers. Bright, and noticeably fragrant/perfumed at this time of tasting, in its fifth year immediately prior to release. Racy red fruits clasp onto red liquorice, aniseed aromatics. Red meats (corned beef ?) with pepper and spice, rumtopf. Patiently, panforte/mascarpone/malt/dried fig aromatics appear in a second wave. No hurry – the curtain is up, the stage reserved for decades!

PALATE

Captivating/tempting/alluring – yet another subtle variation on the theme/expression of this thing called Grange. Voluptuous and generous, yet poised and harmonious. Assured, and not attempting to overstate its weight/extract/presence. Immediately apparent flavours of chocolate, mocha, cola and juicy plum entwine and converge toward the panforte impression aromatically sensed earlier. Tight and defined, with excellent grip – savoury/tannic. These tannins are both integrated and balanced, colluding with 100% new oak that is all but completely absorbed.

The 2009 Fancrest Estate Pinot Noir was listed by Rebecca Gibb MW as one of her top NZ reds of 2014. 92/100

Equally as enjoyable as an aperitif as it is with dessert, the 2013 Bothie displays beautifully fragrant aromas of fresh pine/lime, melon and lychee accompanied by extraordinary floral notes. The subtle, clean flavours of lemon sorbet, lemon tart and orange rind balance perfectly with the residual sugar creating a full, lush, round palate.

On a highland trail the place to stop and rest when weary is known as a Bothie. This sweeter styled wine exhibits lifted fruit aromatics characteristic of its origin.

A sweet wine at Torbreck was always going to be something slightly different and we've been tinkering away at it since 2001. Muscat Blanc a petit grains is harvested in several stages to achieve different levels of ripeness, creating a myriad of potential flavours. A small amount of spirit is added to the fermenting wine to arrest the yeasts against further activity and raise the alcohol level to around 14 percent.

This wine is bright plum in colour with purple tints. The nose shows intensely complex characters of blackcurrant and cedar spice. This is followed on the palate by an eruption of fruit flavours -primarily dark cherry and blackberry, with a distinctive Coonawarra cassis character. The tannins are fine grained and supple and the wine has a long, integrated finish. As with previous releases of ‘The Cover Drive’, the wine displays harmonious balance.

This wine has been named in commemoration of the Penola cricket ground, which used to lie on the very site where Jim Barry now grows this premium Cabernet, which is blended with small parcels from the family's Clare Valley estate, then aged in French and American oak. The nose is very fragrant, dominated by intense cassis and cedar, with nuances of fennel and damson. A generous palate with succulent tannins framing blackcurrant, liquorice and cherry flavours. Can be enjoyed immediately, but will reward cellaring for 5 years or more.

 dark reddish violet and bright.

 Not very intense but pleasant in its fruity red and black with some rhubarb.

Medium-bodied, it flows agile since its tannins are harmonious and ripe, with delivery of a taste of black fruit and ripe tuna slightly subscribed by toasted oak, long all the necessary and toasted gustillo. Without fanfare, it is a very easy to drink wine and versatile character.

Penfolds Max’s Shiraz is a tribute to former Chief Winemaker Max Schubert 1948-1975, a legend in Penfolds history. This inaugural release honours Max in the year he would have turned 100 years old (February 9, 2015) were he still with us today. Max’s constant pursuit of excellence paved the way for those who followed in his footsteps and also allowed the status and heritage of Penfolds to grow.

A contemporary offering of South Australian Shiraz, this release provides a fruit-driven wine which is generous in flavour and persistent across the palate.

This sparkling wine is made using traditional bottle fermentation techniques from cool climate fruit. It has balanced natural acid along with aromas of apple, grapefruit and brioche characters. A palate with complexity complemented by a fine bead and texture..

This single vineyard, big-hearted wine wears its deep purple-tinged heart on its sleeve. Intense aromatics of blueberry and plum are embellished by notes of spice and a touch of oak. Plush, silky and fruit-laden.

This vineyard is in the Blewitt Springs area and always produces deeply coloured and very rich wine with full upfront raspberry fruit and a long aftertaste with abundant tannin in the finish. This wine repays cellaring very well as the 91’ and 92’ are maturing slowly.
