Yalumba
Eden Valley Viognier
2010

Grapes

100% Viognier

Origin

Yalumba was founded in 1849 by Samuel Smith, British migrant and English brewer, who had brought his family to Angaston seeking a new life. After purchasing a 30-acre parcel of land just beyond the southern-eastern boundary of Angaston, Smith and his son began planting the first vines by moonlight. Samuel named his patch "Yalumba" – aboriginal for "all the land around".
Taste

Pure aromas of apricot nectar, honeysuckle and orange oil. The palate is long, rich and luscious, with intense stone fruit flavours and finishes with an aromatic citrus freshness.
Enjoy
Enjoy with Maroccan Tagine, lamb or poultry.
What the Press said
"Well, if viognier was this good, sauvignon blanc would have a real fight on its hands for the hearts and minds of Australian white-wine drinkers. This '10 Eden (Valley) viognier is packed full of complex aromas of musk, apricot and vanilla, with a luscious palate that finishes with a nutty, dry finish. At no point does it become too cloying or sweet, a common fault of lesser examples."

Cult Aussie wines 'Two Hands' are back in store.

We have Samantha's Garden and Lily's Garden,along with Gnarly Dudes and Angels Share. These are all really great wines and there is limited stock !

 Last night it was chilli con carne made by my own fair hand on thursday so it had had a day to spice itself up. It's always a challenge with spicey food but we went for the Two Hands Angels Share Shiraz which has a good fruit level and enough spice to hold up to the chilli. It's a combo worth trying !

Nicolas Potel Vielles Vignes Pommard 2008

Pommard is a village in the Cote de Beaune, to the south of Beaune itself, and is situated in an area of iron rich soils. This gives wines from the area a more robust character with good tannic structure affording the wines better ageing potential.

This wine is deep garnet in appearance with an alluring bouquet of redcurrant jelly, toast and subtle smokiness.

On the palate it is well textured with dense savoury sweet fruit and tightly wound tannins. It has medium body and would accompany pork dishes excellently.

If you are looking for a few bottles of Burgundy to lie down for a few years, this would be a good example of something robust enough to have cellaring potential.

And the price I hear you ask??? All this for just £19.99!!

Feel free to come in and try the wine on Friday, with no obligation to buy of course. We look forward to seeing you!
 

Brancott Estate Sauvignon Blanc 2010/2011 Montana,

Origin

One of New Zealand's most iconic and well-known wineries, Montana is also its largest wine company. Without Montana, New Zealand wines as we know them would barely appear on the world wine map. Producing wines that typify the Kiwi style and showcase their place of origin.
 

New Zealand in a glass...vibrant and lifted aromas of ripe tropical fruits and gooseberry. Bracing acidity is tempered by concentrated green fruits, citrus and hints of chalk with a reviving fresh finish.
Enjoy

Drinking at its best now as either as an apéritif or with lemon chicken, Thai spices, fresh fish or seafood.
