Terrene Estates South Australia Rosé 2022
$8.00As I preach it is what is in the glass that counts and the 2022 vintage is a fabulous buy. This vintage is labelled as Terrene a medieval English term which is a bit like the French term terroir. As for the wine, well it tastes good and is a result of blending several regions so we decided to call it South Australia.

Mount Eagle Eden Valley Pinot Gris 2022
$11.80Pinot Gris is like an albino version of Pinot Noir with an appealing aroma, delicate palate and good length. It needs no barrel fermentation or barrel ageing or all the other wonderful winemaking tricks and seems best when treated just like a Riesling. Take the free run juice, ferment and bottle and when this is done correctly you will have in your hand a most appealing drink.

Fareham Estate Clare Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2021

Mount Eagle Eden Valley Riesling 2022
$11.80‘You Australians don’t get Riesling’ I was once told by a New Zealand expert. The discussion was over a glass of Grosset Clare Valley Riesling and my response was to nod wisely and keep drinking. Naturally the Clare taste is different to the fragrant aromas and softness of those from New Zealand.

Waitohi Springs Marlborough New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc 2022
$12.50We were in two minds about this Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc. The wine passes our taste tests yet was already in bottle. The wine is true to style and because the flavours of Marlborough and New Zealand have such distinctive characters we badly needed an example for our customers since it is the biggest selling wine style in Australia. We did our best. You will love the wine but value wise it just sneaks in.

Old Moppa Road Barossa Valley Rose 2022
$13.50So what happens if we gently press Grenache and Mataro and bleed off the free run juice with minimal colour, to make our Rose. Pale tint of red going tawny at the edge of the glass, and we get to see what the grape flavours are without tannins and oak maturation.

Parawatta Eden Valley Riesling 2022

Glug Vine to Glass Eden Valley Shiraz 2022
$13.50I have a simple view. Good wine will sell and since the Eden Valley lacks appeal that’s where the bargains will be found. Over the last three years Glug has made connections with several boutique Eden Valley wineries and now take any surplus they offer. This Glug Vine to Glass is a ‘one off’ being sourced from one of our connections. Customers will be rewarded.

Even the Barossa Valley will not be spared as production is up 50% in the last 10 years and prices of the fashionable boutiques has doubled, perhaps more. This Glug Alpha is another purchase from a local boutique.
-
Crayford Barossa Valley Shiraz Durif 2022
$12.80What varieties can be used to make wines that create a taste that carries the global badge ‘made in Australia’. Shiraz for sure as it takes on another dimension in our warm regions. Of the many hundreds of other varieties it is work in motion though a Glug favourite for stardom is Durif.
