2011 Primo Estate Il Briccone Shiraz/Sangiovese
Australia's Primo Estate has a reputation for singular, big-flavoured imaginative wines with tons of personality. None more so than this unusual combination of shiraz and Italy's sangiovese varietal. Result? A typical grunty Aussie red with sleek Italian refinement. Taste the love.
2012 Kerpen Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Spatlese Trocken
Riesling divides wine aficionados. Some are simply not interested, others have a passion and fervour for the varietal that borders on hysteria. There are even international wine bars that serve only riesling. Enter Kerpen, from a revered Austrian family specialising in the varietal. This wine is from 70-year-old vines and is majestic, dry and unbelievably good ...Riesling naysayers will be converted.
2012 Bott-Geyl Gewurztraminer Les Elements
Alsace, France is known for its gastronomy, scenery and jaw-dropping aromatic white wines - especially a personal favourite of mine, gewurztraminer. Jean-Christophe Bott's family wine tradition dates back to 1695 and he has been running Domaine Bott-Geyl for 20 years. This wine has aromas of banana, ginger, butter, almond and orange with a touch of bitterness. It has purity and multi-layered textures ... magnifique.
