Sausage = Sizzle We don’t often get to say that, but beyond the medium in which we’re presenting this, today we’re in some seriously rarefied territory. For a (relatively) short time we were custodians of one of Australia’s oldest Shiraz blocks which, by the time we sold it to fund our recycled red brick driveway…
Mark and his motley crew of 2 ex Israeli Army girls and an aspiring fashion designer have been super busy in our Vineyard this year. All varieties are beyond budburst, with the Grenache as usual springing out of the blocks first up, and from all reports looking sweet. The youngest in the mix, Albarino and…
SG – Obviously we’re smack bang in the middle of Harvest, you being the attention seeking sort and all I thought we should kick off our first winemaker profile by asking you a few Q’s…. KP – You’re my boss and that wasn’t’ a question so not such a good start…. SG – What’s your…
Tasting note 2/17… this one should be easy, fresh from watching Tony Abbott (thankfully) implode, I’ve gone to the masses and called for ‘collective thoughts’ on this wine. I started with the impeccably resourced (and talented) winemaking team at MVW, can’t get any closer to the source than these guys… the ‘man’ on the ground…
Even if this tasted like shit, we’d still be happy to have made this wine… and we’re only half joking. It’s just such a cool variety to say you make, especially for an old bloke like me who’s grasping at whatever he can to keep relevant in the post-Madonna Material World. Who even knew they…
Nero D’Avola Touriga Sagrantino Montepulciano Shiraz…surprisingly easy to say. Two 5 varietal wines in a row… must be the time of the year when winemakers pretend to be artists and come up with these concoctions under the guise of ‘intrigue’, ‘complexity’, ‘layers’ and any other assortment of blah. It’s a particularly tough one to write…
My mate Dean loves his Rosé, he even refers to it as if it was the flower, so after nailing the ess&see Grenache no.1 and 2 he needed only the slightest of prods to have a crack at growing the fruit for everyone’s favourite label. V12 of this was a cracker, the style, the creative,…
It’s a Chameleon, a cool reptile that, besides the changing colour trick, also has the ability to independently rotate its eyes to focus simultaneously on different objects. This would be an easily justified link if we’d blended two batches together and said something about how we kept them separate, waiting for the right time…
If this wine was a bloke, he’d be drifting along in life, somewhere in his late 30s before waking up one morning busted and finally asking himself how the flaming f88k did he end up here? Who was he, how did he come to be… there are unmistakable characteristics of origin and gene, the tattooed…
I read in one of Jancis’s books that Vermentino ‘seems to benefit from proximity to the sea,’ which got me off on a tangent trying to think of who and what doesn’t enjoy the ocean? Mild steel is probably not much of a fan, nor are your car windscreen wipers… people of English pedigree can…
