Punt Road Whole Bunch White
A lovely off white, copper hue to the wine. Not quite rose, but a really appealing blush. The nose has mandarin peel, fennel and a touch of funk and wet earth. Palate is racy, with cumquat and dried flower notes. Finishes with a vanilla note, and a savoury, phenolic bite. Theres skinsy and bunchy notes throughout, but they are in harmony with the pristine fruit and energy of a white wine from this cool, humid year.
Quealy Mornington Peninsula Pinot Grigio
Helen’s Hill 'Breachley Block' Chardonnay
Lambert Chardonnay
Warramate Marsanne Roussanne
Brilliant pale straw colour with highlights of green around the outskirts and a watery hue. Peach, apricot and honeysuckle aromas drift out of the glass followed by some ginger and spiced pear notes. Light in body but fleshy in its feel the palate features pear, peach and apricot fruits over a delicate honeysuckle and ginger spice back drop. Fresh acidity finishing supple and elegant. Drink over the next 4-5 years. Alc. 13%
Rob Dolan White Label Yarra Valley Chardonnay
Montalto Pennon Hill Pinot Gris
Brilliant very pale straw almost water like core with a faint greenish tint to the edges. Delightful pear and red apple scents sail out of the glass followed by hints of dried honey, musk and spice. Delicious pear and red apple fruits have a fleshy yet fresh feel with notions of musk, rosewater, quince and spice lying underneath. Nicely concentrated it finishes dry with crisp acidity and a long refreshing conclusion. Drink over the next 1-2 years. Alc. 13.5%
