May 21, 2013KIERAN’S HOLIDAY HIGHLIGHTS
May 30, 2013We have just introduced a stunning new wine list with some 80+ wines now available, including some superb international varieties.
My two picks for the season are:
Josef Faiveley 2010 Mercurey ‘Clos des Myglands’ 1er Cru Domaine (Pinot Noir) $70
France Burgundy An official Premier Cru vineyard site of the Mercurey appellation in the Cote Chalonnaise sub-region of Burgundy . The nose & palate consist of the same greedy, black & red fruits flavours against a woody & smoky base. The elements blend together harmoniously giving a silky & hearty wine.
St Hallett GST Grenache, Shiraz, Touriga 2010 SA Barossa Valley $52
James Halliday 2013 -94 Points
The dense old vine Grenache fruit is matched by the powerful rich Barossa Shiraz, whilst
Touriga Nacional weaves vitality into this compelling blend.
