Tasting Notes
Chilean Cabernet Sauvignon: Beautifully soft and intense with fruit flavours of blackcurrant and hints of spice and vanilla creates a wine with a full, mellow mouthfeel. Serve at room temperature on its own or with seasoned pasta, meaty casserole dishes or vegetable dishes.
South African Chardonnay: Zesty aromas of tropical fruit combine with a refreshing burst of citrus fruit, butter and honey flavours on the palate. Delicious served with all seafood, salads and light chicken dishes.
Chilean Merlot: Rich and smooth with generous fruit flavours of black cherry and plum. Aromas of coffee and chocolate create an elegant wine with a long finish. Serve at room temperature with lamb, grilled pork or roasted vegetables or equally enjoyable on its own.
Australian Rosé: Fresh and delicious with succulent ripe fruit flavours of strawberries, raspberries and cranberries deliver a mouth-watering juicy medium-bodied rosé. Serve chilled with salads, shellfish, lightly spiced chicken, pizza or simply on its own.
Chilean Sauvignon Blanc: Lively & refreshing with tropical aromas of passion fruit & lime. Ripe citrus fruit flavours and hints of gooseberry create a clean and aromatic wine. Serve chilled with herb chicken, pasta dishes or salads or equally enjoyable on its own.
Italian Pinot Grigio: Crisp and refreshing with apple and hazelnut flavours and just a hint of spice. Perfect served just by itself, or with salads, fish, light chicken dishes and lightly spiced foods.
Californian White Zinfandel: Lively and refreshing flavours of ripe strawberry and juicy watermelon combine with a delicate sweetness and crisp acidity. Serve chilled on its own or with pork, chicken, salads or creamy soft cheeses.
