Drink List
Champagne
Canard-Duchene Authentic Brut NV, France
Canard-Duchene is unique in its origins, history and style. Straw-yellow in colour and a delicate mousse followed by characters of fresh fruit aromas with brioche notes. A Pinot Noir-dominant style with light red fruits and berries developing further lemon and white stone fruit layers with a lovely weight and balance. Ideal as an aperitif.
White Wines
Pikes "Valley's End" Sauvignon Blanc Semillon 2013/2014, Clare Valley, South Australia
A gorgeous effort, the 2013 is a blend of 51% Sauvignon Blanc & 49% Semillon made from both estate-grown and growers' fruit. It is enticing and restrained fresh aromas of citrus, passion fruit and secondary notes of green and mineral. More of the same on the palate with the soft tropical fruit flavours being balanced nicely by the crisp acidity and delivering a clean, dry and persistent finish. A great, refreshing drink matches with all sorts of seafood and some spicy Asian dishes.
Red Wines
Chateau d'Arche 2009, AOC Haut-Medoc, Bordeaux, France
This 22-acre vineyard chateau is well situated next to a classified Grand Cru in Ludon-Medoc. The vines take their sparse nourishment from a gravelly soil and are ideally exposed. Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot equally make up the final blend, together with Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot and Carmenere. The nose is perfumed with notes of blackcurrants and peonies, plus a whiff of spice. Pleasant fruit flavours come through on the palate which has added freshness from a mint-like edge, and definition through elegant silky tannins. Crisp and lively, the balance of this wine is particularly successful in one of the best vintages in Bordeaux. Suggested to pair with grilled red meat, or meat dishes in a sauce.
Mr Riggs "The Truant" Shiraz 2012, McLaren Vale, South Australia
The Shiraz grapes used to make "The Truant" have been sourced from select vineyards in McLaren Vale. Vintage 2012 has delivered exceptional quality and balance, in fact it will be the best of all the great vintages in the last 20 years. The wine has a long, soft and juicy palate and lush mouth feel, bursting with nuances of blackberry, blueberry jam and liquorice. Drink this with full-flavoured meats such as roasted lamb, beef short ribs or even spice-rubbed or barbecued chicken.
