website
The winery receives a coveted 4½ star rating in
James Halliday’s Wine Companion..
The Chenin Blanc is one of Australia’s
most extraordinary white wines with a huge peachy nose and
charry wood aromas.
This is a wine that will age for over ten years and develops
wonderful complexity
in the bottle. The Verdelho is just about my favourite white wine.
Unoaked, it has delectable greengage and lime fruit with elegant acidity.

Three quite stunning reds that are only available in tiny
quantities as the wine has achieved a cult status in Australia. The
Cabernet Sauvignon is made in a classic French style and
Will rates the 2001 as one of the best he has ever made. Aged
in French oak, it has awonderful integration of fruit and wood. The flagship
Shiraz has an astonishing structure
and concentration
of flavour: allspice, cloves and intense black fruit. Both reds can be drunk
from now to 2025

This entry-point range of
wines from south-east Australia should not be disregarded
because of their low
price. All three are excellent, well-made wines that show
good varietal characteristics.

GRANT BURGE -
Barossa Valley
He is the largest private landowner in the area, but never
makes any sacrifice in the
quality of his wine. ‘Old Vine Shiraz’, his ‘black monster’ flagship wine: quite
stunning. The Holy Trinity – his ‘hommage’ to Châteauneuf - has
proved an enormous success and is a blend of
classic Rhône varieties: Grenache,
Shiraz and Mataro.

TRENTHAM
ESTATE
Since listing these
wines for the first time at the end of 2002, we havebeen amazed at the success
we have had with them. The Murphy family were pioneer winemakers in the
Murray River Valley and their vineyards now spread over 50 hectares. After
spending 11 years at
Mildara Blass, Anthony Murphy returned to the family estate as winemaker and
they now win
numerous medals. Fabulous value are the entry point Big River wines. For
something unusual,
try the Trentham Noble Taminga, a complex, botrytised blend of Riesling, Traminer and Ferrano (the what?)

De Bortoli Wines - Victoria
The De
Bortoli family have been making award-winning wines since 1928.
Their famous Deen Vat Durif is a chocolate monster of a wine: rich and
full-bodied.
The La Bohème series is a tribute to the Yarra Valley’s own Dame Nellie Melba,
who enchanted the world as Mimi in Puccini’s opera. Both wines are elegant
blends
that combine a hint of the exotic with mainstream fruit characteristics.
The Show Liqueur Muscat is glorious: a mouthful of raisins, coffee and
caramel.
