Wines:

Riesling 2003

No added preservative.

Very dry style. Intense citrus flavours and crisp acidity nicely balanced with honeysuckle overtones. Great accompaniment to white meats, especially fried fish and Asian-style dishes.

Sauvignon Blanc 2003 (Sold out 08/06)

No added preservative.

Very dry style. Citrus and spices over a mineral base. Natural fruit acid contributes to a lovely long clean finish. Rich palate will match well with chicken and pork dishes.

Riesling 2006

Semi-sweet German Kabinett-style. Gorgeous aroma spectrum covering orange blossoms, citrus, melons, right through to tropical fruits. Lovely palate weight and with long, clean dry finish care of fantastic fruit acidity. Try with spicy dishes including curries, or savour at the end of the meal with soft creamy cheeses.

2002 Shiraz

Appearance: Bright, deep red
Nose: Vibrant nose of dark berry fruits and violets.
Palate: Fantastic generosity for such a young wine. Very nice soft tannins and well integrated cedary oak provide a gorgeous background to the velvety ripe dark berry fruits and spice. Yummy right now, but will cellar (if you let it) for 8 to 10 years

La Bella Late Picked Riesling 2006

Intense and delicious fruit medley including limes, pears, passionfruit and pineapple! Luscious weighty palate and a lovely lingering finish. Perfect with rhubarb tart, lemon meringue or as a stand alone dessert.

Shiraz Cabernet 03

Carefully blended and matured in aged French oak, this elegant wine displays a very faint cool-climate mintiness and white pepper spice, overlayed with ripe berries and morello cherries. Superb with rare roast lamb.

Shiraz Merlot 2004

Lovely soft rounded palate. Mouthful of berries sprinkled with spice. Easy-to-drink, with or without food.

Merlot 2004

Robust red. Great tannins create a lovely firm structure and palate length. Big mouthful of black cherries and plums, well integrated oak. Delish with casseroles, gamey meat dishes, and barbecued steak.

Durif 2005

Plums, chocolate and cinnamon with a delightfully earthy backdrop. Carefully handcrafted drink-now-style with very soft silky tannins rounding out a full palate. Savour with smoked meats and cheeses, antipasto platters.
