WINES
Argentine
MalbecThe Argentine Malbec has found uniquely favourable growing conditions in Argentina and has no doubt
created one of the most successful and delicious Malbec wines in the world. A combination of desert climate, cold nights,
and irrigation of eternal snows from the Andes, creates an especially healthy environment for these vines. An intense bouquet
of damson plums, blackcurrant and violet aromas give way to a slight touch of hunting and leather notes. This richly purple
coloured Malbec carries a velvety texture with long, soft flavours. Although it ages beautifully, firm tannins and mellow
acidityallow this wine to be enjoyed while young. Sweetness: Dry | Body:
Medium | Oak Intensity: Medium | Australian Cabernet SauvignonThe bold, individualistic style of Australia’s winemakers has unleashed the full potential behind the ‘king
of red grapes’, captured here in our Australian Cabernet Sauvignon. Combines forward fruit flavours of cherry, raspberry
and blackcurrant with a tremendous backing of tannin and structure. Rich and polished with a long, layered finish warmly accentuated
with oak. Sweetness: Dry | Body: Medium-Full | Oak Intensity: Heavy
| | Australian Cabernet/ShirazThe
blend that made Australia famous. Cabernet Sauvignon’s structural intensity perfectly complements the ripe fruit and
chocolate flavors of Shiraz, for rich, complex and hearty red wine of outstanding character. Big, bold and dark – a
luxurious treat. Sweetness: Dry | Body: Medium-Full | Oak Intensity: Heavy
| | Australian ShirazThe grape that was made for Down
Under - its hot climate perfec for bringing out the best traits in this popular grape varietal. Australian Shiraz is seductively
delicious, with startlingly rich, ripe aromas that deliver right through to the full zesty finish. Amazingly, the style allows
for polished tannins early, so the young wine is not rough or harsh. The aged version retains the core fruit flavours of plums,
cherries and blackberries, but gains extra polish. Pair this Shiraz with flavourful meals! Sweetness: Dry | Body: Medium-Full | Oak Intensity: Heavy | | Chilean Cabernet SauvignonOur Chilean version of this classic boasts
black pepper and berry bouquets. Notably flavorful, with tannins that develop with age. Pairs with beef, turkey, lamb and
stews. Sweetness: Dry | Body: Medium | Oak Intensity: Medium | Chilean MerlotPowerful fruit and spice flavour, with mellow tannins
for a supple finish. Deserves ageing, but will develop quicker than Cabernet Sauvignon and will stand up to the same food
pairings. Sweetness: Dry | Body: Medium | Oak Intensity: Medium | Chilean Pinot NoirWinexpert’s Selection International Series
Chilean Pinot Noir is a bright ruby colour with delicate aromas of red berry flavours. Medium bodied and supple with a hint
of herbiness, the mouth feel is very elegant with soft tannins and a subtle oak finish. Vibrant and food friendly, this wine
is excellent with salmon, roast beef and lamb. Sweetness: Dry | Body:
Light-Medium | Oak Intensity: Medium | French Cabernet SauvignonAn excellent candidate for short term aging due to its moderate tannins. Deep ruby red colour with berries and oak
on the palate. Serve with prime rib and steaks. Sweetness: Dry | Body: Medium
| Oak Intensity: Medium | French MerlotDirect
from the vineyards of southern France, this classic varietal is rich with ripe fruit and berry flavours, yet soft and elegant.
Dry, full-bodied and deeply coloured, with a complex velvety taste accentuated with premium French oak. Sweetness: Dry | Body: Medium | Oak Intensity: Medium | | Italian AmaroneItalian Amarone is a very intense and complex wine,
with a wide array of flavours and aromas. Deep ruby red, this heavyweight wine exudes aromas of sour cherries, dark chocolate,
stewed plums, dried fruits, anise, raisins, bitter almond, tobacco, leather and molasses, and has a spicy-earthy bittersweet
finish that lengthens on indefi nitely from the huge volume of tannins. Delightful with food, Italian Amarone is often enjoyed
by itself, sipped outside of mealtimes with good conversation and good friends. Sweetness:
Off-Dry | Body: Medium-Full | Oak Intensity: Medium | Italian
MontepulcianoMontepulciano is a vigorous red grape variety widely planted over much of east-central Italy,
capableof creating deeply coloured, rich red wines with blackberry fruit flavours and spicy, peppery tannin levels. Montepulciano
generally produces wines that are smooth and mellow yet robust and mouth filling, with dependably high alcohol content. Superb
with veal and pasta – an Italian gem you won’t want to miss. Sweetness:
Dry | Body: Full | Oak Intensity: Medium | Italian SangioveseItalian Sangiovese (san-joe-VAY-zee) has a bright red cherry character, overlaying strawberry notes, with hints of
violets and white pepper. It's medium body and long, wonderfully smooth, tannic finish is livened by a zing of acidity
and toasty oak. Sweetness: Dry | Body: Medium | Oak Intensity: Medium
| South African PinotageDelicate and balanced
like a Pinot noir, with the hardiness and robust colour of Cinsault. Deep intense ruby colour with purple highlights. Layered
aromas of raspberry, spices, red cherry, and fruitcake give way to rich complexity of flavours including raspberry, vanilla,
plums, coffee. Smooth on the palate, easy drinking Sweetness: Dry | Body:
Medium | Oak Intensity: Medium | | Spanish RiojaSpain’s finest red wine blend from
the famous northern Spanish region. Tends toward the traditional French blends, combining bright berry and spice flavours,
deep red colours and solid tannin backup. Includes premium oak for a soft, dry vanilla finish. Delightful when aged. Sweetness: Dry | Body: Medium-Full | Oak Intensity: Medium | |

grape attains rare heights in aroma and flavour. Winexpert's German Müller-Thurgau is crisp and
clean, with a grapey fruit character, low to medium acidity, and a pleasantly fragrant aroma. Vibrant flavours of crunchy
green apples are imparted in its floral residual sweetness, aided by the addition of our F-pack™* finishing package.
Sweetness: Off-Dry | Body: Medium | Oak Intensity: None | Italian Pinot GrigioThe uniquely Italian version of the well known
Pinot Gris grape, picked earlier in Italy than in all other regions and well before its characteristic loss of acidity at
ripening, for a bright, crisp, dry white wine with a gentle perfume and a detectable spiciness. Fresh, fragrant and lively,
its flavours include a certain flintiness with hints of citrus and almonds. Sweetness:
Dry | Body: Light-Medium | Oak Intensity: None | South African
