2008 BAROSSA 'CHOOK' Chardonnay Australian Terroirs
Barossa Valley South Australia Australia
Great value Chardonnay from selected Eden Valley fruit. Given a brief period of oak maturation which in turn gives the wine excellent texture and weight. The fruit is soft, ripe and exotic, but in a very refined and restrained manner, with the most amazing finish for a wine at this price level, and a fresh acidity that drives it for well over a minute.

2009 BREECHENS BAROSSA Chardonnay Maverick
Barossa Valley South Australia Australia
Barrel fermented Chardonnay, but subtle enough in its use of only used oak, blended with Semillon. Bright and lively with some exotic fruit moments, combined with nuts, spices and vanilla.

2010 RIESLING Pfaffenberg Salomon Undhof
Kremstal Austria
This is a beautifully balanced dry Riesling with a hint of aromatic fruit and balanced by crunchy minerality. Perfect aperitif and would accompany grilled and shellfish so well.

2006 TRIAL HILL CHARDONNAY Maverick
Barossa Valley South Australia Australia
This barrel fermented Chardonnay, produced from a 0.9 hectare plot in the Eden Valley, is amazingly well balanced and focussed. It is oaked, but not oaky, and has a remarkable texture with positive juice and great length. The flavours are not the usual exotic mix of tropical fruits, but more restrained with mineral notes combined with lemons, limes and a hint of grapefruit.
