2006 Whites Just in Time For Summer

SATURDAY, DECEMBER 02, 2006

2006 Chenin Blanc and 2006 Semillon Sauvignon Blanc have now been released.

Both are vibrant and fresh wines, promising great drinking through the coming summer months.

Our new labels set out to give a cool, clean appearance in keeping with the style of the wines themselves. The style is consistent with previous releases: fresh, fruit-driven, lively and crisp. Citrus tang is in the fore with the 2006 compared with the passionfruit tropical fl avours of the 2005. Chenin is a perfect accompaniment to the many seafood and salad meals we will all soon be enjoying. And it is ideal for a lazy late summer afternoon.

The Semillon / Sauvignon Blanc blend again uses highly aromatic Adelaide Hills Sauvignon Blanc, blended with richer McLaren Vale Semillon. The result is a zesty nashi pear / granny smith scented wine. With firm natural acidity and depth, this will suit summertime well: picture a hammock under the shade of a peach tree and a glass of Coriole in your hand... life is good!
