organic one blanc de blanc nv

SAVE $56 per case » where are the oysters

buy mixed case $16.50 » straight case $186 ($15.50pb)

region » riverina, NSW
classification » organic, vegan

tasting notes by organicwine.com.au » Blanc de blanc literally means "white from white", and in sparkling/champagne terms it indicates that the wine is made from 100% chardonnay. A medium gold sparkling with a delicate mousse and inviting aromas of lemon, quince and a slight mintiness...or maybe fennel seed. The palate is dry and rich with citrus, fig and warm spice. Leaves your mouth watering, wanting another sip. Grab a case at only $15.50pb & you'll be enjoying this bargain all the way to New Years eve.  Michelle Gadd October 2010. » read more

 

 

2009 rosnay vintage sparkling rosé

Winestate Magazine 4 stars » on special save 20%

buy mixed case $17.00 » straight case $192 ($16pb)

region » cowra, NSW
classification » organic, vegan

review »  "The freshness lightness and vigour in the fruit really reflect out of the wine’s character. Sparkling Rose is an interesting variant and it comes off neatly here with classic flavours, crisp fresh acidity and a dryness on the finish. Don’t expect lashings of sweet ripe fruit...instead the subtleties of the wine is what does the talking"  87/100 – Good. Paul Ippolito, 22 March 2010 .

winestate 4 stars » Very pretty, bright pink wine smelling of lollies, spices and berries. Fresh and creamy palate with lots of berry fruit flavours and plenty of 'fizz'. » read more

review »  Lightly sparkling, with hints of strawberry and tropical fruit. Refreshing palate with a nice acid zing. Match it with a bowl of summer berries. No excuse needed for some frivilous spring & summer drinking.

The Not So Obvious Science of Fining (or why is there egg in my wine?) »

by Rich Bowden, October 2011

buy mixed case $27.00 » straight case $309 ($25.75pb)

region » barossa, SA
classification » organic, vegan

tasting notes from the winery » Emanating from the glass is dark cherry, blond tobacco, fruit cake, blueberry, anise and a hint of cinnamon. The palate is a burst of pure fruit complimented by subtle background oak. It is dark, rich and full-bodied, yet elegant and sophisticated. There are layers of fleshy red and black fruits together with floral notes. The fruit is balanced by fine, slightly minerally tannins adding a seamless structured backbone.
