IValpolicella Classico di Veneto (Corvina)
The power grape of Italy’s famed Valpolicella, Bardolino and Amarone,
Corvina is renowned for fruity, full-bodied wines with cherry aromas
and a hint of almond. The Veneto region stretches from the northeast
border with Austria down to coastal Venice, with a mild continental
climate ideal for long, controlled ripening and intense grapes.
Corvina Classico has lush, intriguing aromas of ripe red cherries
and raspberries, delicate hints of almond, toast and spice and a
richly tannic finish that has the fruit lingering on your palate for
many minutes.
In the historic footsteps of Amarone—a wine fermented with a
reserve of crushed grapeskins—the Crushendo™ grape pack brings
immense grape tannin and character to the wine. Right out of the
carboy this wine will have intense, gripping tannins, and although
drinkable immediately, it will open up and blossom into a wine of
unique power and elegance over two to four years.

Italian Barolo
Medium-heavy in body with a luminous dark cherry colour, tannin
dominates the flavours initially, with intense grip and robust dryness
in the finish. High acid, tannin and alcohol levels challenge the palate
when the wine is young, but with age come rewards: wild ripe
strawberries hot from the sun, a whiff of dark tar, the scent of roses
and violets, and earthy, rich
truffles. Burly, assertive ‘chewy’ wine, it is not for the faint of
heart, but for those seeking intensity and
complexity, there is nothing else like Barolo.

New Zealand Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc
Marlborough has the sunniest, driest climate in New Zealand, and the
Wairau Valley’s rich soils combine with the cool nights to deliver
astonishingly pungent wines, with gooseberry, herbs, pink grapefruit,
fresh-cut grass, asparagus, lime-leaf, tropical fruit, passion fruit,
and a host of other beguiling aromas. Few wines ever achieve the amazing
aromatic complexity and zesty fruit of New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc. The
expression of this amazing explosion of fruit is aided by our special
proprietary yeast: by careful management of the yeast strain, Selection
Estate New Zealand Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc casts long, rich flavours,
redolent with grass and currant leaves, and a crisp dry finish.

I German Mosel Valley Gewurztraminer
The Mosel valley is famous for its beautiful scenery and excellent
wines. Gewürztraminer grapes from this region tend to be a dusky pink
colour, and result in wines from light to a dark golden yellow with
subtle copper tones. Gewürztraminer is quite full-bodied, more so than
most any other white wine type and the combination of its strong and
heady perfume, exotic lychee flavour and rich texture make it a powerful
wine with an intense and memorable finish.
