Friday Night Weekly Tastings

Friday May 17th

Two Italian Boys Pinot Grigio 2011 

This is a fresh upfront let the fruit speak for itself wine. It's just so easy to enjoy!

Soft and supple. There is a light crispness that only adds to the varietal depth.

Value for money? Sure but who cares. It's right there in your nose and palate saying 'Stop buggering around trying to be cool. Let's dance.'

Two Italian Boys Sangiovese 2010

A nice easy to drink sangiovese. It's simple yet has personality.

The word quaffable would be an understatement. Mid weight tannins and nice savoury notes paired with what seems an effortless style make this a year round mainstay of a wine. Order a pizza and put your feet up. Some things in life should be easy. Bellisimo.

Two Italian Boys Cabernet Sauvignon 2010 

Crack this little stunner and order the saltimbocca.

A match. A love affair. A downright bargain.

There is plenty of flavour in this bad boy. Yet packs a soft punch with a heap of personality to boot. Pour a huge glass and give it no further thought. Molto bene.

Fog City Cider 

A bitter-sweet premium cider, Fog City is naturally blended from a perfectly balanced mix of apples and pears. Its distinct cloudiness creates the unmatched body and fullness of flavour after which it is named.

Doss Blockos Lager 

A smooth, premium pale lager, Doss Blockos is an all natural lager brewed in a traditional lager style, but with an eye to style and providing malty flavour that balances a mild hop bitterness nicely

Lick Pier Alcoholic Ginger Beer 

Lick Pier is a refreshingling dry alcoholic ginger beer made in a non-traditional fashion

Two Italian Boys Fiano 2012

This Fiano displays a lovely aroma of citrus, white peach and spice. Fresh fruit flavours of lemon, honeydew and apple are supported by superb length and acidity.

This textural white wine best compliments fresh seafood, poultry and white meat dishes.

Two Italian Boys Cabernet Sauvignon 2010

Tonight we are in for an absolute treat...

Stuart Olsen, the winemaker of the brilliant Eloquesta, is coming in to the store to show off his magnificent product. Not only this but we will be sampling some of the 2011 barrel. Stuart is bringing in a taster of his Petit Verdot barrel, some of his Shiraz barrel and the early stages of the 2011 Eloquesta Shiraz Petit Verdot blend! Now, you really DON'T get that everyday!!

Eloquesta Shiraz Petit Verdot 2010

Maybe our best red wine find of the year!  We are overwhelmed by the response for those we have forced this wine upon. 

This wine is absolutely stunning. Deep in purple and very perfumed. Violets, musk and blueberries on the nose is what you get upfront, opening further with decanting - leading to a very juicy and fleshy blackfruited palate with firm acid and line of tannins that linger. Stuart Olsen (winemaker) is a genius!
