Australian Shiraz
Australia's route to fame on the world wine stage, Shiraz from Down
Under offers lush berry aromas that beg for a hearty whiff. A wine of
ripe fullness, its concentrated blackberry fruits and fragrant
spiciness are a delight on the tongue. It has the uncanny quality of
allowing early consumption despite its complexity and bigness'.
Robust and lively, Australian Shiraz is a savoury treat.
California Trinity White

lemon and grapefruit aromas with rounded fruit, redolent of melons
and frsh figs to round out this crisp refreshing medium-bodied white.

Italian Pinot Grigio
The uniquely Italian version of the well known Pinot Gris grape, picked
earlier in Italy than in all other regions and well before its characteristic
loss of acidity at ripening, for a bright, crisp, dry white wine with a
gentle perfume and a detectable spiciness. Fresh, fragrant and lively,
its flavours include a certain flintiness with hints of citrus and almonds.
California Chardonnay
Full of citrus and tropical fruit flavours and warm vanilla oak
Enigma
Introducing a bold, enigmatic blend from Selection. Intense fruit
aromas and notes of black cherry, coffee, chocolate and vanilla. Full
bodied with a smooth, round finish.
Food friendly, this wine pairs well with everything from pizza to pasta
and is a great match for meats like ribs or chicken with sweet and
sticky marinade.
Italian Montepulciano Style
Montepulciano is a vigorous red grape variety widely planted over
much of east-central Italy, capable of creating deeply coloured, rich
red wines with blackberry fruit flavours and spicy, peppery tannin
levels. Montepulciano generally produces wines that are smooth and
mellow yet robust and mouth filling, with dependably high alcohol
content. Superb with veal and pasta an Italian gem you won't want to
miss.
