Tag Archives: Pinot Gris. October 1, 2014. Anna Flowerday says ‘cool’ a lot. Not ‘cool’ as in climate though her journey from fifth-generation Shiraz-swilling McLaren Vale lass to South Island NZ is a big part of the story. Nor ‘cool’ meaning on-trend in fact some of the best moves she’s made run counter to fashion (and received wisdom). No, just cool in that simple, spontaneous way that says you’re going to dig it, whatever happens. She was at Hardys for seven years all up, working in a positive, collab...

Everything’s Hunky Dory. June 11, 2015. They saw an ad in the local rag for a block of land on an old apple orchard in Rapaura that looked to us like heaven . They stretched themselves to the limit and bought it. That place is now Huia. And Marlborough has paid back its promise in spades. That told us we were somewhere special, says Mike, accounting for the motivation that got the place built. And the allure of the signature grape is as strong as ever. To this point, Mike and Claire opt to press rather t...

October 16, 2014. Royal Melbourne Wine Awards. McLaren Vale winemaker Stephen Pannell has won the highest prize in Australian wine for his 2013 Adelaide Hills Syrah. It’s the second time he’s taken out the prestigious Jimmy Watson Memorial Trophy at the Royal Melbourne Wine Awards, which he first snagged 18 years ago with the 1995 Eileen Hardy Shiraz. They’re honest, affordable wines, for people not collectors. They’re wines that when I see them I can afford them, I buy them and I drink them. His second ...

Category Archives: Xeno Files. Wines and their creators from around the world, plus Australian renditions of matters foreign. Theresa’s Top Honour. March 15, 2016. I felt so at the right place. I saw my mum and my uncle and they all said ‘Go away. Take some time off. Do whatever you want’. Nobody said ‘You have to do it’. None of the family said that. I had to actually convince them that I wanted to stay, that I wanted to be there. I just felt at home. Precise is her word for what’s she’s striving for...

Czech girl living in London, studying for Master of Wine and discovering wine, food and far far places. THE GREAT RHEINGAU RIESLING REVIEW. LONDON – 19th SEPTEMBER 2013. When leaving the grand halls of the German Embassy where the VDP Rheingau. Tasting was held yesterday, I could not help but feel sadly frustrated. I’m very fond of these fine, if pricey, Rieslings, don’t get me wrong. But bringing them to a dinner table is another matter. Sherwyn Veldhuizen and Marcel Giesen. The UK agent. There are ...

Meadowbank Vineyard | Tasmania
http://meadowbank.com.au/meadowbank-vineyard
Cool climate, award winning, family owned estate vineyard we are all of these things. So are most Tasmanian vineyards which is a fantastic thing. What is it that makes Meadowbank fruit so special though? Well, it’s neatly summed up by a French word called ‘terroir’, which if you ask Gerald to translate for you he will wryly reply with ‘f ked if we know’. And Dawson and James. With friend and winemaker Peter Dredge. Or to buy our own Meadowbank wines made with Meadowbank fruit, visit Meadowbank’s Cellar.
