Each year the winemakers select the fruit that they think will provide the most flavour, and then blend it together to make the latest Tangled Up in White. The result this year? A glorious Chardonnay Verdelho bursting with bright fruit!
Made in the light, crisp and zesty Italian style by Chief Winemaker Emma Norbiato, this dazzling Aussie Pinot Grigio makes a wonderful partner to Italian fare like pizza, pasta, grilled meats ... you get the picture!
Rich aromas of red fruits, blackcurrant, and toasty, spicy oak notes. The Way & Cat is robust and opulent at the same time, showcasing classic South Australian varietal flavours.
John Quarisa is a Jimmy Watson Trophy-winner and his Petite Sirah (Durif to many Aussies) is a Gold-medal magnet – every vintage so far has won Gold, this has three so far, including a rare Double Gold plus a TROPHY!
John Quarisa's 30 Mile Riesling is fresh, aromatic and bursting with citrus. Lemon and lime liven up the palate, with subtle green apple hints. Racy acidity makes a fantastic pairing with a platter of fresh prawns.
Aromas fresh ripe berries are complemented by rose petal and orange blossom. The same ripe berry flavours are given added complexity on the palate thanks to well-integrated vanillin oak and spice notes. Long, smooth and irresistible.
These two elegant yet practical stemless glasses are perfect for everyday drinking and enjoyment.
The original black pig was named Tanuki. He was a cheeky little pork chop. So loved was he by his winemaking owner, it was only right we honoured this special pig with a wine of his own. Produced from hand-selected McLaren Vale Shiraz.
It’s wine like this, made using fruit from premium sites throughout the region, that makes South Australia a first choice destination for lovers of big, generous and velvety Aussie reds – consider it the state’s great gift to the wine world.
Lady Chardonnay is quite the actress. Born, it's said, from a liaison between a French aristocrat and an uncultivated 'peasant'. She appears the world over in many guises, winning rave reviews. You'll adore this fresh, modern performance.
This lavish Cabernet Sauvignon is rich in character, with inky black fruit (plum, blackcurrant, blackberry) and delicious and distinctive herbaceous notes. Supple, fine-grained tannins and a hint of cedary oak finish it off beautifully.
This classy white is just made for lazy warm weather drinking. Those lovely luscious grassy, citrussy Semillon characters on the crisp, mouthwatering palate are simply sublime with fresh seafood. Try it for yourself and see.
The essence of summer: Take all the joy of a summer fruit salad, with the zip and zing of tropical fruit and a dash of sunshine, distil it into a wine and you will have the miracle that is Verdelho.
