Special three

THREE WINES EACH AT $15.99

Featuring these three classy wines which offer exceptional value.

Belmonte sauvignon Blanc 2008 ($15.99) A great little Sauvignon Blanc that oozes charm and sheer drinkability with its delicate flavours and clean refreshing palate. A hit when tasted last weekend in store, and rated by Michael Cooper in his latest Buyers Guide as a bargain.
A lovely summer drink. Highly recommended!

Kakapo Nelson Chardonnay 2005 ($15.99) A very small production wine, hand picked and given nine months oak maturation and partial malolactic fermentation, it is now showing some nice bottle age characters. Pale yellow with butterscotch and citrus flavours it has a nice creamy texture but is still fresh and vibrant. Recommended!

Thomson Estate Old Pumphouse Shiraz 2007 ($15.99) Maybe better suited for the cooler months down the track, but a very smart South Australian Shiraz. A big brooding wine on the nose, with a rich smooth mid-weight palate of ripe dark berry-fruits and spice, finishing long and warm. Gold Medal Adelaide , 4 Stars Winestate
