Wine Week 123: Something old and something new… and you can win!
This week we include a wine we’ve looked at before as well as a wine whose grape we haven’t looked at as a single variety ever before. We kick off with a straight Malbec and while we’ve seen the grape in blends on the show previously, never have we looked at it on its own. Following this we check out a Clare Valley Riesling that we’ve seen in previous vintages and it’s still a great drop. To round things out we have a look at a Cabernet/Shiraz blend that is awesome buying right now.
PLUS we’ve got two double passes to the Melbourne Good Food & Wine Show with entry to Matt Skinner’s class on matching food & wine.
To enter simply join our subscriber list (if you’re not already) and then email us at info@wineweek.com.au. You’ll need to be able to make your own way to Melbourne on Sunday 7 June.
For an extra chance to win one of the two double passes you can also follow us on twitter and tweet the following message on your profile: “I hope @wineweek pick me as the winner of a double pass to the Melbourne Good Food & Wine show with Matt Skinner!“.
Winners will be announced during show 125 and notified via email or twitter! Make sure you’re in the running to win this great prize!
