Came across this great review by James Halliday for one of my favourite white blends – the Wise Semillon Sauvignon Blanc 07 – and I quote: “The large spread of vineyards owned or leased (40ha from Margaret River to Donnybrook) underpins the invariably high quality of the white wines from Wise. Here a fragrant citrus…
There were only 3 shiraz out of over 50 entrants that won gold at this years prestigious and highly competitive Margaret River Wine Show. One of those was the Wise Eagle Bay Shiraz 06 – beating some very big names in the Margaret River wine industry – Voyager, Vasse Felix and Cape Mentelle…
When talking to winemakers in Margaret River they say the southern area of the region – Karridale is the best area in the region for Chardonnay…seems to be some truth in it after tasting Hamelin Bays’ 2006 Chardonnay….wine show results accord too! Top Gold Medal, 2007 Royal Hobart Wine Show; Gold Medal,…
We’ve always thought this wine was consistently good, so it’s not surprising to see David Hook’s “The Gorge” Shiraz 06 get such great reviews from our top wine writers. It’s getting harder to find top quality under 20 bucks these days but here at The Vine Press we’ve always said this wine was…
You know my thoughts about the brilliance of Teusners wines. Read this article from Peter Forrestal from Gourmet Traveller WINE magazine about why Kym Teusner from Teunser Wines was awarded the Kemenys Medal 07 – Young Winemaker of the Year…… Kemenys Medal winner 2007: Kym Teusner Having bought the fruit no-one else would,…
Radford Dale make the best Eden Valley Riesling I’ve ever tasted, says Rhys from Sydney on-line wine retailer, The Vine Press. And I’ve tasted a few in my “young” (don’t-mention-the-number) years! New into our cellars this month is the 2007 vintage which looks like being every bit the stunner the 06 was.…
We’ve just received the lastest release from Marschall Groom Cellars of their stunning 2007 Sauvignon Blanc. More tropical and mouthfilling and less pungent than those Kiwi Sav Blancs! It might be winter but lets face it we are blessed here in Sydney with crisp dry sunny days. One always needs the appropriate…

We know and love semillon sauvignon blanc and cabernet merlot which are a blend of different grape varieties. Aussie winemakers also blend wines of the same grape very successfully. For example, if making sauvignon blanc: at harvest, grapes from up to 15 ( or more) different vineyards (each with different flavours) are picked and…
