Casseroles

Rich, vibrant and aromatic fruit showing soft plummy flavours but with full jammy fruit too then quite dry tannic bite giving it structure and length in the mouth.

SOUTH EASTERN AUSTRALIA

A fantastic combination of hearty Shiraz and perfumed Petit Verdot. The peppery Shiraz brings lots of savoury backbone, while the Petit Verdot adds hints of chocolate and some delicate floral tones, to produce a well rounded fruity red.

FUENMAYOR, ESPANA

Tempranillo is the backbone of wines made in the well-known Spanish regions Rioja and Ribera del Duero, but is also grown as far afield as Mexico and Australia. 

As a flavor profile, red fruits like strawberries and cherries can predominate - but with a rustic edge. Many wines made from Tempranillo will spend a few years in barrel and bottle before reaching the consumer. Many Tempranillo-based wines see a few years of oak - add that to a few years of bottle and the wine can give a subtle - and occasionaly not-so-subtle - leathery mouthfeel. The combination of the tart fruit and tannins make this wine very food friendly.

PATAGONIA, ARGENTINA

Malma wines are produced from manually harvested grapes from selected vineyards, and aged for 6 months in French and American oak. Thia adds a layer of compexity whilst the fresh fruitiness of the wines is maintained and their unique Patagonian personality preserved.

STELLENBOSCH, SOUTH AFRICA

The Merlot shows a rich deep colour. On the nose, aromas of plum, chocolate, coffee and spice abound. The wine is full with soft ripe tannins and excellent wood integration.
