I’m just going to sit here by my Vintec wine fridges and indulge. Seriously though, if you have a bottle of Moss Wood wine in the house, it’s 100% tempting to hog it all to yourself 😉 Thank you Clare, Keith and the Moss Wood team for this sample of your 2018 Pinot Noir. I pulled out…
Chardonnay lovers, get this 2019 Moss Wood in your glass ASAP. You can thank me later. A big thank you to Moss Wood for sending this beauty over for us to sample. We enjoyed every last drop. 2019 was a challenging vintage in Margaret River (WA). This was due to things like frost, super cold…
We pulled this Juniper Estate 2004 Shiraz from Margaret River out of the cellar recently. I’m glad we did as I reckon it des definitely a good time to be getting stuck in. It is 16 years old after all. We picked this bottle up a number of years ago when we were on a…
Steak, salad and red wine. Don’t you love those ‘nearly’ summer evenings! Thank you Marriwood for sending over this sample of your 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon. I popped it in my Riedel Cab Sauv specific glass (I.e. the glass that’s as big as my head and it can fit a whole bottle in, *apparently*). Here’s a bit…
Moss Wood is a name synonymous with top quality wines and it’s their Cab Sauvs which have a cult like following. And I can see why after trying this sample bottle I was kindly sent from the Moss Wood team. Thank you! This 2015 was released on the 1st of May 2018. The 2015 vintage…
It’s rosé and salad season again. We’re having some nice weather at the moment here in regional VIC (it’s going to be 29 here today) so last night Mr Spittoon made my current favourite salad recipe (a steak and potato Weight Watchers recipe) and I cracked a bottle of rosé to match.
Lush. Absolutely lush explains this Chenin Blanc. It’s a variety that’s hot, hot, hot right now. But you want it chilled. In fact this Thursday the Australian Chenin Blanc Challenge is taking place in Perth FYI.
Oh yes, I’m doing it, posting about another Pet Nat and oh boy this ‘Bratty Nat’ is so super delicious! Thank you Marri Wood Park for sending this 2020 sample my way. I savoured ever last drop and definitely poured more in my glass than Mr Spittoon’s each time. I blame it on the wine…
Hands up who loves their Pet Nats? Don’t worry if you have no idea what I mean by that either. Even if you haven’t tuned into the TC for very long, then you’ll know I’m not talking about a pet cat called Nat but that I’m talking about wine. Petillant naturel wines are sparkling wines…
