Tasting Notes: Black crimson in colour, this wine leaps from the glass with powerful aromatics of blueberries, fresh plum, licorice and nuances of chocolate biscuit. The seamless texture is laced with fresh berry fruit, coffee, vanilla cream and warm spice, giving us a full-bodied Shiraz with an endless depth of flavour and great length. Still quite young and could use at least an hour of decanting. Pairs well with that grilled rack of lamb.

Tasting Notes: Alcohol 11.5% Grape Type Pinot Noir. Sweetness Dry. Wine Style Medium and Fruity. Food suggestions: Shellfish, chicken nachos, charcuterie. If you ask what is one of the most enjoyable things in this world, I would say that it is being surprised suddenly and in an extraordinary way! I poured this Rose for a group of friends with a toast about Spring being around the corner and a perfect time for a Rosé. The response following the taste was immediate. Delicious, fruity, sparkly, and a few “wows” thrown in. The Villa Wolf Pinot Noir Rosé is a frizzante loaded with notes of strawberry, watermelon, and raspberry. This dry wine is made with fruit from vineyards farmed expressly for the purpose of producing a true Rosé, called Weissherbst in German. Only perfectly ripe, healthy grapes are selected. Upon harvest the fruit is given a brief maceration to extract a lovely salmon colour from the Pinot Noir grapes. They call this their “Jolly Rancher Rose” as it exudes explosive aromas and flavours of Jolly Rancher Strawberry and Jolly Rancher Watermelon Founded in 1756, the Villa Wolf winery was a successful and highly regarded wine estate for more than two centuries. Ernst Loosen, one of the Pfalz regions most prominent winemakers, took over the winery in 1996, launching a dramatic revival of the estate’s quality and reputation. Since 2011, the estate has been managed by a talented and dedicated young team that previously worked at Dr. Loosen.

Tasting Notes: Another winner from the folks at Small Gully! 100 % Shiraz sourced from 50+ year old vines. Big and bold, it carries a heady bouquet of vanilla, red bell pepper, sarsaparilla, plum, date jam, and forest floor. Very full bodied, with a palate of plums, dried fig, black cherry, and sultana notes. Medium fine integrated tannins, and medium finish. Very delicious! Drink now - 2025 ish. Pair with hearty dishes, good friends, and happy times!

Tasting Notes: Finishing in ex-rum casks for added character and smoothness; the dram pours a shimmering amber color and offers intense aromas of burnt sugar, oatmeal, brown butter, apricot and citrus. The palate is rich and creamy with flavors of tropical fruit, cinnamon, dried fruit and citrus followed by an enduring fruity, finish.

Tasting Notes: Snoop Dogg 19 Crimes Cali Red tastes like a nicely balanced red blend, with notes of black cherry, vanilla and candied raspberry. I found the taste to include 2 flavors that occurred in succession. First, black cherry with a slight hint of vanilla. Second, a transition to a lighter, candied raspberry. They are also the first wine brand to have introduced Augmented Reality (AR) experience. If you download their app, the label will talk to you. 😲
