Nital Beefsteak and Burgundy Club

CHANDON Garden Spritz is a ready-to-chill, ready-to-share blend of our sparkling wine and orange bitters recipe – handcrafted with navel and blood oranges, dried orange peel and natural herbs and spices. The Chardonnay grapes, Pinot Noir, and unique orange bitters give Garden Spritz its signature citrus notes and all-natural radiance. Serve in a glass over ice, add a citrus garnish and kick back under Australian skies with great company for a moment you’ll remember.

Tulloch Verdelho is an exciting aromatic white that was harvested at night to retain the fresh natural acidity found in the quality fruit. The wine itself has honeydew melon notes with a real citrus blossom lift. The long, engaging palate has a real zest to it with a fine acid backbone treating the drinker with a long, crisp finish.

From Dr Ernst Loosen - the maestro of the Mosel. If you are new to German Riesling, you are in for a treat. Mouth filling notes of freshly cut apples, flowers and a thread of honey is balanced by the most incredible, crunchy acid. Its a journey of flavour with each mouthful.

Medium bodies, with a long even bright palate. This brightness is super silky with spice, violets and plums. A fruit forward style with beautiful complexity.

The palate starts out with a lean fruit profile first up, but this kicks into gear and starts to evolve and open. There is a lovely subtly here, which I happen to really enjoy and appreciate. The fruit is juicy, sweet and rolls deep into the late palate. The tannins are very fine, and that juice nature makes them caressing and very enjoyable. This year after year is always a great wine when served at the table, the soft acidity keeps the fruit bright and focused and then the tannins have a lovely mouth-watering feel that dry out the late palate and get you ready for some food. Another enjoyable vintage of our Brave Faces which will bring many smiles to whoever gets to enjoy this bottling.

Finally, a 1999 Vintage Port from Auldstone at Glenrowan. This is late bottled in the old style from 100% Shiraz characteristically sweet and a great way to finish a lunch with cheese and biscuits and coffee.
