We love Riesling but it's not really a Hunter variety, so we thought a cracking Riesling from a local winemaker using beautiful cool climate fruit was an excellent opportunity! Vibrant with citrus led aromas and flavours.
The warm, inland summer bestowed this wine with tropical fruit aromas and a palate bursting with notes of pineapple and honeysuckle, with a minerality of river stones and underpinned by a pink grapefruit acidity.
Albarino is a wonderful variety that is well suited to the Hunter Valley. Made without the use of oak, this is a riot of aromas and flavours. Spice and lime collide with fruit salad culminating in a delicious, crisp minerality.
A rare departure from the Hunter classics by Liz Silkman. Showing zippy flavours of finger lime, lemon and grapefruit and the hallmark flavours of white pepper and green pear.
A quirky blend for a quirky bird. Ian & Suzanne have a special affinity for the lyre bird and have made a quirky blend of Verdelho, Pecorino, Vermentino and Albariño to make a crisp, easy drinking wine. Delicious (the wine not the bird).
Vermentino is an intriguing variety with chameleon-like qualities. Aromas of jasmine and white nectarine lead to a textural palate that is savoury, saline and vibrant all at the same time. A hint of toastiness, some zesty spice and a crisp minerality all add to the allure.
The fourth release of Pecorino from Ian & Suzanne Little and definitely the best so far. Loads of white flower, crunchy pear and that trademark line of acidity, perfect summer wine!
