The complexity that combines the freshness of the white wine and the structure of the red.

The Vermentino really shines in this blend, showing pineapple, lime, mango, pine and wet stones. A delicate and refreshing gulp of wine.
Easy-drinking Riesling from Columbia Valley's oldest winery, with apple blossom on the nose, crisp apples in the mouth and a fine, steely minerality.

An elegant and exotic blend of spicy Shiraz and earthy, rustic Grenache, with nutmeg and cherry and a lovely black olive finish.
Lively South African Merlot, packed with cherries and exuding mint and a wisp of smoke.

New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc, green and fresh with lime and gooseberry, gentled by flavours of tropical fruit.
The wine is jam packed with Barossa Shiraz flavours....plums, black fruits and warm spices of cinnamon, nutmeg and 5 spice. There’s a touch of mid palate sweetness, some mocha and black olive and the soft tannins are integrated seamlessly through the mid palate. The subtle use of oak allows the rich dark fruit to take center stage. A wonderful fruit driven expression of Barossa Valley Shiraz and outstanding value too.
Dark cherry, blueberry, raspberry and chocolate, intermingled with subtle spices and earthy graphite notes. The medium palate weight and silky texture profile are hallmark ‘Eastside’. Black cherry and blueberry fruit point to the wine’s delicious acid structure, whilst hints of aniseed and lightly charred oak provide interest. The long lasting yet soft tannin profile is accompanied perfectly by the bright fruit core to create a balanced finish.
The nose evokes all those childhood memories of picking wild blackberries, mulberries and raspberries, complete with woody spice and brambly notes. The palate shows further layers of complexity woven through the sweet berry fruits. Earthiness shines through, perhaps even a suggestion of rich beef reduction, leather and walnut. Chewy tannins complete this generous and complex wine. A pleasure to match with all kinds of rich, meaty dishes.
Aromas of cassis, black current and licorice combine with ripe, dark fruit characters and a pleasing richness of fruit fills the palate, whilst fine and even tannins drive the wine to a soft finish.
This is a wine of great presence, loaded with classic Cabernet Sauvignon characters of cassis, plums, cedar, red capsicum and violets. Despite the depth and complexity of the fruit, the palate remains true to Cabernet form, providing a sleek mouthfeel framed by a long line of fine, chalky tannins. Powerful, aromatic, persistent and charming all at once. While this wine offers enough fruit to be enjoyed in youth, expect 5-8 further years of careful cellaring to enhance its overall quality and enjoyment.
Pinot Noir with a leavening dash of Mourvèdre from Victoria, south-east Australia, delivering baskets of cherry and strawberry to the mouth, complemented by bracken, fresh earth and a touch of oak on the nose.
Fabulously textured Riesling-Gewürztraminer blend, heady with lime, flowers and exotic spice.
Aromas of ripe honey dew melons, peaches and nectarine combine with the creamy stone fruit flavours on the palate resulting in a pleasing textural quality, held in check with refreshing citrus acidity.
Complex, exotic white wine from South Australia's McLaren Vale, a cascade of peaches, honeydew melon, papaya and a tangy hit of pickled ginger, below a cloud of fragrant white blossom.
