“Wine comes in at the mouthAnd love comes in at the eye;That’s all we shall know for truthBefore we grow old and die.I lift the glass to my mouth,I look at you, and I sigh.” – WB Yeates 1910 This is the poem that adorns the back label of the Heirloom Vineyards wine bottles. And inside you…
How does this sound – Sauvignon Blanc and Orange Soy Glazed Fish? It was delicious! And a big thank you to Georgie Orbach Wines for sending us this sample of their 2020 Sauvignon Blanc to match.
Not so long ago I mentioned that I had an AMAZING Chardonnay and today I want to let you in on the secret. We’ve literally visited only a handful of cellar doors in the last year. Half to do with you know what and half to do with Baby TC. It’s safe to say ‘just…
Seriously this here makes me so happy. Cheese and wine – can you really go wrong? Rosé Champagne is incredibly food friendly and my favourite match would have to be cheese and charcuterie. We picked up this Champagne Taittinger Prestige Rosé NV for $80 and I would most definitely buy it again. It’s absolutely delicious. The beautiful…
Anyone else enjoy wine tasting in the bath? Saturday nights for me look like this. And you know what, I’m totally cool with it. Wine, books and bubble baths. It’s even better when the wine in question is a Chardonnay. I received this Terranu Wines 2017 Chardonnay from Adelaide Hills as a sample (thank you!)….
Sauv Blanc Saturday’s, that sounds like it’s an official thing right 😉 I kindly received this 2020 Heirloom Vineyards Adelaide Hills Sauvignon Blanc to taste recently (thank you!). This Sauvy sits at 11.2% so it’s not overly high in alcohol, it’s also not your typical fruit bomb that most of us immediately think of when we hear the…
Tasted: 19 February 2021 In the glass it’s a plum red shade. Red fruits, herbs and leather/tobacco notes rise up from the glass. While in the mouth it’s bright acidity worked really well with the tomato based dish. It’s fruit forward, juicy, smooth and über drinkable. This wine was sent to me as a sample, I…
Did you know that ‘Fidium’ means ‘attuned’? And in the case of this 2019 Moss Brothers Margaret River Wines Fidium Cabernet Sauvignon which I kindly received as a sample (thank you!!) it’s that the Moss Brothers winemakers are attuned with the vineyard and its “cycles, its idiosyncrasies, its aspect and of course its full terroir profile.” And…
You won’t find many 2020 Mudgee wines on shelves. Unfortunately if you’re not aware, there were terrible bushfires around Australia over the 2019-20 summer. In fact many winemakers did not produce any wine at all and it was most probably one of, if not the most, challenging vintages in the region’s wine growing history. Robert…
