Malbec

Alcohol: 12.5%   Body: Med-Full
The finished medium-bodied wine is bright red with purple hues and is inflected with juicy red and black fruit notes, subtle spice (black pepper) and an inviting vanilla accent. The flavours are in fine balance with the natural fruit acids and soft tannins, making a very pleasant and quaffable red. It matches well with a wide variety of foods. Always at home with beef, pork, chicken from the BBQ, pastas and pizza.

Merlot, California
Alcohol: 12.0%   Body: Med-Full
The wine releases aromas of raspberry and cherry and a subtle toasted note followed by flavours of raspberry and strawberry. Gentle tannins and well-integrated oak contribute structure to the fruit-driven profile without being too aggressive. This soft red pairs with red meats and will work well with roast chicken.

Pinot Noir, California
Alcohol: 12.0%   Body: Med
A bright and fruity wine. Expect to enjoy lively black cherry and cranberry aromas and flavours against subtle spice and almond in the background. The soft, light to medium-bodied wine may be lightly chilled and enjoyed as an aperitif or serve with chicken, pork or simple beef dishes.

Syrah, California
Alcohol: 12.5%   Body: Full
A complex wine which reveals notes of red currant, black pepper, vanilla and toast - all wrapped together in a slightly early manner. Gentle tannins guide the wine through a nice finish. A great wine for hearty barbequed meats.

WHITES

Chardonnay, California

Johannisberg Riesling, California
Alcohol: 12.5%   Body: Med
California Johannisberg Riesling is lighter and less exuberant but still reflects the bright citrus and ripe fruit character that makes Riesling one of the more versatile white wines.
