Ménage à Trois Gold Chardonnay – USA
This is a big, rich, oaky white wine. It explodes with flavours of sautéed pineapple, melted butter, crème brûlée and spicy oak. Full and velvety, this is white wine at its most opulent.
Pair this wine with cream sauces, halibut and roast chicken.
Galante Appassimento White – Italy
Produced from semi-dried grapes to create flavours of honey, apricot, nectarine and a touch of zesty citrus. Medium body with a hint of viscosity for texture.
Pair this wine with pasta, shellfish and cured meats.
Tenuta Perano Chianti Classico – Italy
Chianti Classico Tenuta Perano is born on the hills of Gaiole in Chianti from vineyards 500 meters above sea level. The south, southwestern exposure and the amphitheatre-shaped layout magnifies the exposure to the sun and concentrates the heat from it. The combination of elevation, exposure, the shape and slope of the vineyards, offers an extraordinarily unique quality setting that results in brilliant- purple wines possessed of intensely fruity aromas and a great tannic structure rife with elegance.
Pair this wine with pizza and pasta.
Old Soul Cabernet Sauvignon – USA
A ripe and full-flavored California Cabernet, full of rich blackberry and cassis aromas. The palate offers vanilla, black fruits and hints of spice and cedar.
Pair this wine with BBQ’d meats and burgers.
Château Vieux Barrail – France
Vieux Barrail is a Bordeaux Superiéur AOC indicating it’s aged 12 months before release and it’s an amazing quality for value from this region. Notes of graphite, leather, wet earth and vibrant-black current all wrapped in decadent oak.
Pair this wine with big and bold dishes like beef stew, grille- pork ribs and mushrooms.
Tenuta Iuzzolini Cirò Rosato – Italy
From Calabria in Southern Italy, we have a beautiful Rosato made from Gaglioppo grapes. It shows a lot of bright acidity, spices, floral and red-fruit notes.
Pair this wine with fish, seafood, white meat, creamy cheese and caprese salad.
