Wine Week 53: Cool wines for hot days
In Australia Christmas and New Year have been hot, hot, hot! So with this in mind we’ve chosen three wines that are perfect for helping you cool down and chill out. First we look at a crisp, fresh riesling from WA. Then it’s off to Spain for a super dry sherry that’s brilliant chilled. And finally we look at a red that is a great option for those warm summer days.
In this episode we recommend:
- Howard Park riesling 2007 ($20-25)
- Delgado Zuletta “La Goya” Manzanilla NV ($14-16)
- Bay of Fires Tigress pinot noir 2006 ($20-25)

That dry sherry is probably one of te best sold and produced in southern Spain (Sanlúcar de Barrameda). It is fresh and crisp, very dry and aromatic. Very good aftertaste. It is one of the best dry sherries that I have tasted. Try it as an apetitiv with seafood etc..

We totally agree Jean, too many people think of sherry only as something their Grandmother used to drink. The La Goya is a great drop perfect as a starter with something like marinated sardines done in the tapas style.
