Wine Week 63: Three great dessert wines.

March 14th, 2008

This week we look at three wines perfect for opening up after your main meal is done. The first is a Muscat which is under the vino-lok closure to make sure the wine is at its best. The next is a sweet white made in the style of the great French sauturnes. And it wouldn’t be a dessert wine special without looking at a brilliant fortified from Rutherglen.

In this episode we recommend:

  • All Saints Rutherglen Muscat NV ($18-20)
  • De Bortoli Noble One 2003 750ml ($45-50)
  • Morris Old Premium Tawny Port NV ($45-50)

Wine Week 28: Is this closure the end of cork for top shelf wine?

July 6th, 2007

This week we look at a wine which uses a closure that might just signal the end of corks on high end wines… and the wine inside the bottle isn’t half bad either! We also look at a great shiraz with lovely chocolate characters and a semillon/sauvignon blanc from a region known for producing great versions of the blend.

In this episode we recommend:

  • Stella Bella Semillon Sauvignon Blanc 2006 ($18-24)
  • Henschke Henry’s Seven 2004 ($25-27)
  • Knappstein Shiraz 2004 ($16-22)
