White Wines

Australian Chardonnay
Supple and slightly buttery, this wine lingers on the palate with layers of toast and spice. Extremely versatile with foods, this is the ‘red wine’ of white wines, combining beautifully with grilled pork, chicken, fish, salads and cream-based pasta sauces.
Sweetness: Dry | Body: Medium | Oak Intensity: Light

Australian Riverland Reserve ™
A stunningly unique blend of Sauvignon Blanc, Colombard and Muscat varieties sourced from Australia’s Riverland region on the Murray River. The hot climate produces a wine offering a lively combination of rich ripe fruits, complimentary acidity, and a full body, making this delicious white wine a ‘must-try’.
Sweetness: Dry | Body: Light-Medium | Oak Intensity: None

California Trinity White
A unique blend of Colombard, Sauv Blanc and Semillon, combining lemon and grapefruit aromas with rounded fruit, redolent of melons and frsh figs to round out this crisp refreshing medium-bodied white.

French Sauvignon Blanc
Steely, grassy, herbaceous – the classic traits of palate-cleansing Sauvignon Blanc are here in this version sourced directly from the French countryside. Crisp and dry, this refreshing wine is a fabulous match with food, as its full, fresh flavours and wonderfully balanced acidity make it essential with chicken, fish and grilled vegetables.
Sweetness: Dry | Body: Light-Medium | Oak Intensity: None

German Müller-Thurgau
Müller-Thurgau (Moo-lehr Tirr-gow) Delicious flavours apricot, green apple and peach aromas of Riesling, and the early ripening qualities of Silvaner. A great sipping wine, it’s a perfect choice for potato chips (there’s nothing like a crisp glass of Müller-Thurgau and some crunchy chips!) but mostly it’s a very satisfying wine to quench a thirst in good company.
Sweetness: Off-Dry | Body: Medium | Oak Intensity: None

Italian Pinot Grigio
The Italians have their own way with the Pinot Gris grape variety, and in the process they create a special magic with it that’s unmatched elsewhere in the wine world. Though dry in character and with a pleasant zip of acidity, this Pinot Grigio shows off a pleasant floral fragrance and tremendous fruit flavours, making it the perfect picnic accompaniment.
Sweetness: Dry | Body: Light-Medium | Oak Intensity: None

Italian Trebbiano
This light, almost pale in colour, crispy white wine offers citrusy notes and a clean, fruit with almond-like finish. Excellent with appetizers such as shrimp cocktail or lightly flavoured pastas.
Sweetness: Dry | Body: Light-Medium | Oak Intensity: None

Red Wines

Australian Shiraz
Australia’s route to fame on the world wine stage, Shiraz from Down Under offers lush berry aromas that beg for a hearty whiff. A wine of ripe fullness, its concentrated blackberry fruits and fragrant spiciness are a delight on the tongue. It has the uncanny quality of allowing early consumption despite its complexity and ‘bigness’. Robust and lively, Australian Shiraz is a savoury treat.
Sweetness: Dry | Body: Medium | Oak Intensity: Light

California Trinity Red
An ideal blending of three of California 's most popular grape varieties - Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Merlot, com ing together to make a perfectly balanced, well- structured dry red wine. Notes of black cherry and coffee complement the smokey, herbal flavours, and hints of vanilla that round out this medium bodied wine , making it highly enjoyable for any occasion. Serve with a roast dinner or barbecued steak.
Sweetness: Dry | Body: Medium-Full | Oak Intensity: Medium

Californa Zinfandel Shiraz
A deep flavourful red wine with notes of raspberry, black cherries, figs, dark chocolate and a jamminess that finishes with a peppery spice.
Sweetness: Dry | Body: Medium | Oak Intensity: Light

French Cabernet Sauvignon
All the classic associations with the great red wine grape – the chief varietal in the classic red Bordeaux styles – are here in this Cabernet brought in directly from France: rich, intense aromas, deep berry fruits, healthy tannins, and a smooth, lingering finish. With the proper tannin astringency and premium French oak evident throughout, this is an elegant wine offering body and complexity when aged.
Sweetness: Dry | Body: Medium | Oak Intensity: Medium

Italian Sangiovese
The lively fruit and good acidity make it one of the most food-friendly of all reds, pairing well with pasta, veal Parmigiana, intensely flavoured cheeses, and fruits like cherries, figs, plums and raspberries.
Sweetness: Dry | Body: Medium | Oak Intensity: Medium

Chilean Merlot
Originating from the world famous Maipo Valley wine region in Chile, the Chilean Merlot is a soft and supple variation with powerful fruit and spicy flavours. Renowned for its ripe cherry character, the Merlot is a perfect partner for red meats, lamb and hearty stews - a must have on those crisp autumn evenings.
Sweetness: Dry | Body: Medium | Oak Intensity: Light

Chilean Malbec
The hot dry climate allows the grapes to reach excellent ripeness, and lush fruity characters, making an intense, black wine. A thick-skinned grape full of colour, tannin and flavour, Malbec makes wines of great power and character, with blackberry, plums, tar, red pepper, sweet cherry, spice, licorice and deep bittersweet notes, almost like unsweetened chocolate, or espresso.
Sweetness: Dry | Body: Medium | Oak Intensity: Light
