  Terravin Te Ahu 2009 NZD $39.95
  Sauvignon Blanc
  One of the Best NZ Sauvignon Blancs you will Ever Try Winemaker and owner Mike Eaton recently had a tasting with Perrotti-Brown, who is a wine writer for Wine Advocate and Robert Parker. She visited just 12 wineries in Marlborough. When she tasted the 2009 Te Ahu she said it reminded her of Pavillon Blanc from Chateau Margaux which sells for around $130.00! French Sommelier Jean-Marie Pratt who has been Head Sommelier at Gordon Ramsays for the past 3 years said the Te Ahu is with no doubt one of the best three Sauvignons from NZ. "When tasting the Te Ahu Sauvignon Blanc, one would straight away sense there is something different in the wines of Terravin than most of the other wines in NZ. This has a star-bright and appealing colour, the nose is discreet to start but shows subtle notes of citrus, white fruits and flowers. It slowly opens up in the glass and delivers much more minerally notes such as flint and pebble. On the palate the wine is dry and focused and displays similar fruity and mineral notes reminiscent from the nose. It is ample and textured with a precise and marked acidity, all in harmony and balance. I would suggest decanting this wine if consumed now - I think this wine has the ability to age and believe it will remain fresh and vibrant for another 3-4 years. I think it will then develop mature tertiary aromas but still good to drink for another 3-5 years. It reminds me of a Sancerre by Francois Cotat - one of the top Loire Valley Vignerons. This suggests that Marlborough SB, when made in a hand-crafted and serious style, can compete with the best Sancerre and Pouilly-Fume."Fermented in 500 litre barrels and aged for 11 months before bottling this is, as Mike Eaton so rightly states "The Te Ahu Sauvignon Blanc is a new direction, a new pathway for Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc". Production is limited and the price is sure to rise in the coming years. An absolute must.

  Undurraga Carmenere 2007 NZD $11.95
  Rose & Other Red
  Chile’s signature grape, carmenère (sometimes spelled carménère or carmenere), is the “lost grape of Bordeaux.” Known also as “grand vidure,” it was originally one of the major grapes of the Médoc region. Even under the best of circumstances, it was a difficult grape to grow in Bordeaux, since it needed more heat to ripen than other Bordeaux grapes and, worse, it often caught coulure, a disease that caused the grapes to drop long before they were ripe for harvest. An 1870s plague of phylloxerae (vine-munching, aphid-like insects) that destroyed several million acres of European vineyards finished off carmenère for good. Or so everyone thought. This wine is made with selected Carmenere grapes grown in Chile's Central Valley. It has an intense violet colour and displays exuburant fruit aromas and a dominant varietal character. On the palate, ripe tannins make it soft and round. It is perfect with pasta, white meats and mild cheese.

  El Puno Grenache 2007 NZD $51.95
  Spanish red wines
  Master of Wine, Norrel Robertson MW makes some of the most exceptional-value wines in Spain, like Papa Luna and Manga del Brujo. As Jancis Robinson MW says, “Talented British Master of Wine Norrel Robertson, regularly turns out under-priced bottlings.” He has long believed that Calatauyd can produce wines to the equal of Priorat, the region that produces many of Spain’s greatest and most expensive wines. Robert Parker agrees, saying “To this point, the D.O. of Calatayud has been best known for exceptional value. However, this is slowly changing as people appreciate just how good the wines made from its old-vine Grenache vineyards can be.” HE HAS NOW FUFULLIED HIS BELIEF, AND PROUDLY OFFERS HIS GREATEST WINE EVER – EL PUNO 2007. El Puno is Norrel Robertson MW’s flagship wine. It was crafted it from ancient 70-100 vine Garnacha, grown at over 1000 metres in Calatayud’s finest slate vineyards. The fruit was hand harvested then hand sorted in the winery and the wine matured for 16 months in new French oak barrels. The pioneer of California’s “Rhone Ranger” movement Randall Grahm recently chaired the Worldwide Grenache Symposium in the Rhone Valley, France. On tasting 2007 El Puno he said; “'Garnacha from Calatayud thoroughly rocked my world today. So much finesse, elegance. (El Puno is) possibly the greatest Grenache that no one (hardly anyone) has ever tasted.” 91/100 Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate “It offers aromas of slate, toasty oak, leather, and black cherry. Dense, layered and full-flavoured, this impressive effort will provide pleasure through 2020.”

  Casa Gran del Siurana Gran Cruor 2006 NZD $120.00
  Spanish red wines
  Priorat, home to Spain’s most expensive and fashionable red wines is ideally suited to making great Syrah to rival the best of Cote Rotie and Hermitage. Located on the Mediterranean coast, south of Barcelona, Priorat’s gnarly old vines grown on steep schist terraces produce dark, deep, powerful reds, with wonderful balancing mineral intensity. Gran Cruor from new and exciting Priorat producer Casa Gran del Siurana is regarded as Spain’s greatest Syrah-predominant wine. It is made almost exclusively from grown on the steep Cote-Rotie-like slate terraces of their La Fredat vineyard. Jose Peñín, Spain’s most influential wine writer, has given Gran Cruor the highest score that he’s ever awarded to a Spanish Syrah, saying “One of the kings of Spanish Syrah wines is Casa Gran del Siurana’s Gran Cruor.” Gran Cruor 2006 also recently won the Trophy for Best Northern Spanish Red at the 2010 Decanter World Wine Awards which this year qualified as the world’s biggest international wine competition with more entries this year than any other leading wine competition in the world. Casa Gran del Siurana was established in 2000, and to create impact in the world of wine have positioned themselves as arguably the best value source of fine Priorat reds. Based at the 300 year old La Casa Gran farmhouse, all of their fruit comes from their own steep slate hillside estates, the 10 hectare La Fredat estate and 6 hectare La Casa Gran estate. Trophy for Best Northern Spanish Red - Decanter World Wine Awards 2010. 93/100 Penin Guide 2010 (the publication of Spain’s most influential wine writer) “One of the kings of Spanish Syrah wines is Casa Gran del Siurana’s Gran Cruor.”

  Mancuso Grenache 2005 NZD $129.95
  Spanish red wines
  Around the world, this tiny-production wine is now almost impossible to find, having been lauded by Robert Parker who selected it as one of the great Grenache wines of the world, alongside wines like La Barroche Pure Chateauneuf-du-Pape 2007 ($400), Espectacle Monstant 2006 ($330), Clos Erasmus 2005 ($1129) and Torbreck Les Amis 2005 ($250). Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate magazine gave it 96/100. To put this in perspective this is the same score as 2005 Lafite-Rothschild, Chateau Latour, Mouton-Rothschild and Petrus and was rated higher than 2005 Le Pin which sells on average worldwide for $3811. Vinedos del Mancuso is a tiny, new producer focused purely on crafting wines of the highest quality from ancient Grenache vines in a once forgotten part of the Aragon province. They are without doubt one of the most exciting Spanish Bodegas to emerge in the past five years. Two of Spain’s most dynamic young winemakers, Jorge Navascues of Aragon and Carlos San Pedro of Rioja teamed up in 1990 to buy five small vineyards totalling 8 hectares with ancient un-grafted Grenache vines growing at around 1000 metres above sea level on broken slate and yielding less than half a bottle per vine. 80-100 year old vine Garnacha was harvested by hand in small boxes then hand selected in the vineyard then again at the winery. The wine was fermented in small wooden vats followed by an extended post-fermentation maceration of 24 days to obtain a greater extraction of colour and tannins. Matured in new French Allier oak barrels for 14 months, then bottled without filtration. 96/100 Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate “It offers up a superb bouquet of toasty new oak, pencil lead, scorched earth, espresso, black cherry, and blackberry liqueur. Opulent, rich, and complex on the palate, this full-bodied wine has tons of flavour, nicely concealed ripe tannin, and a long, fruit-filled finish. Cellar it for 6-8 years and drink it from 2016 to 2030.”

  Wine Accessories
  Turn a $15 wine into a $25 wineI know I keep harping on about this device, but it is amazing how it works. I've got the red and white Vinturi on trial every Saturday for you to test out. The 'before and after' taste test will amaze you. It can make a $15 dollar bottle of wine taste like a $25 bottle so it's got to be a great investment for you.

Vinturi for White Wine has different internal dimensions and flow rates. The result is perfect aeration specifically for white wine.Building on the winning design of the Vinturi Red Wine Aerator, engineers have modified the reservoir and air ducts to accommodate white wine's unique composition. The Vinturi White Wine Aerator provides a more vigorous aeration flow than its red wine counterpart, mixing just the right amount of air with your whites to enhance their character.

  Mitolo G.A.M Shiraz 2006 NZD $49.95
  Shiraz/Syrah
  The grapes come from vines with an average age of 20 years old from the southern end of McLaren Vale. The soils, which are heavy grey loam soils over sandstone, intermixed with black Biscay clay, combined with a maritime climate, contribute to an even ripening period and the development of rich fruit flavours and ripe tannins. Keeping well within the tradition of the G.A.M. style the nose displays masses of ripe plums, spicy aromatic herbs and lifted freshness. The palate is slightly tighter than the previous vintages, reflective of the slow and evening growing season. The '06 G.A.M. has provided one of Mitolo's most cellarworthy wines thus far. Will drink well for 8-10 years.

  Chanarmuyo Estate Syrah 2006 NZD $18.95
  Shiraz/Syrah
  This is just outstanding. I've taken all of the NZ allocation of the 2006 vintage as I think this is THE red wine buy of the year and the only one you'll need for winter. Drinking beautifully now. You might think you were drinking a wine worth $50+ here. It was rated in the Top 10 Best Value Wines in Metro Magazine. Paul Tudor MW says... "If there is a classier, more concentrated sub-$20 red in New Zealand, I have not found it yet. Outstanding wine, a steal at this price." Lots of complex flavour which reminded me of how a top end Aussie Shiraz used to taste but more complex and with more layers of flavours. I couldn't pass this up. As you work your way through the glass (and bottle) this opens up and gets better and better. Full on but elegant with rich black fruit flavours with chocolate and spice and black olives. Guaranteed Amazement.

  Pinot noir
  This rivals the best of Central Otago for the price. Aged for 11 months in French oak this is rich, velvety and powerful. Ripe, black cherry flavours with a savoury background that is drinking now but will reward cellaring for 3-5 years. I tried a glass of this and left the rest in the bottle.

  Terravin Sauvignon Blanc Semillon 2006 NZD $24.95
  Sauvignon Blanc
  I first tried this 3 years ago and thought in a few years time this could be brilliant. It certainly is! And it's still got a few years left in it yet. The acidity has dropped away slightly and the flavours have intensified and hang around on the palate for so long. This is very different than your average Marlborough Sauv. A blend of 70% Sauvignon Blanc and 30% Semillon with moorish flavours of guava, limes, green apple, kiwifruit and lemongrass. The Semillon gives it some lanolin notes that balance the herbacousness of the Sauvignon Blanc beautifully and gives it a crisp acidity and finishes dry. A great food wine and will come alive with seafood risotto, shellfish, fettuccine alfredo or chicken chow mein. A must try for all.

  Terravin Hillside Reserve Pinot Noir 2006 NZD $59.99
  Pinot noir
  You'll be surprised to hear, especially after actually tasting this Pinot Noir, that it is from Marlborough. I have been a long-time supporter of owner and winemaker Mike Eaton from Terravin and have always said this man's wines will be some of the most sought after from New Zealand. You hear wineries say their focus is on quality, to the point it's a bit of a cliché, but Mike must be the only winemaker in New Zealand not to produce a wine every vintage. Why? Followers of Terravin are now used to having only the best, highest quality wines available from New Zealand and are getting used to the fact that the next vintage will be better than the last - if that's possible. The whole Terravin range is fantastic, with the Reserve Hillside Pinot being an absolute stand-out.Bob Campbell 97/100 Gourmet Traveller. "The merits of selecting the best fruit from a hillside vineyard are obvious in this intense, complex wine. The layers of dark fruit, spice and oak flavours and silken texture in combination are particularly seductive".Robert Parker 93/100. "Ripe, sweet lifted nose of plum, wild strawberry and violets. The palate is full-bodied with pure ripe plum and raspberry fruit, very well balanced and elegant Supple and rounded towards the finish that lingers in the mouth. A little gem". This is great drinking now but will cellar to 2013 - 2015. Amazing buying.

  Champagne Flutes 6pk NZD $89.70
  Wine Accessories
  If you are ever visiting Champagne, France, you will notice most of the Champagne Houses use this style of glass.

The aromas are perfectly concentrated as a result of the tapered top while the base has been carefully etched to release fine bubbles. To appreciate the full flavour, this distinctive shape of glass allows the wine to be guided to the centre of the tongue. The final result is the aromas and flavours of the wine are enhanced so it can be enjoyed at its best. A very good investment, especially for lovers of fine Champagne.The flutes available are the Chef & Sommelier Open Up Effervescent Flute and work out to $14.95ea

  Aromatics/other
  Astounding value here for a dessert wine of this quality. A fruit driven wine from Marlborough with hints of botrytis influence. The initial sweet entry is well balanced with crisp acidity and a refreshingly dry finish. It is just 12% alcohol and is best served lightly chilled. The wine is succulent but not cloying with excessive residual sugar. The perfect complement to cheese, pate’ and fruit platters. It's light and fresh with lots of appealing fruity characters.
