Magpie Estate Rag & Bone Riesling 2024
Magpie Estate Rag and Bone Riesling is a vibrant and characterful white wine from a single vineyard high on the eastern side of Eden Valley in South Australia . Eden Valley is one of Australia's most celebrated regions for Riesling, prized for producing wines of exceptional vibrancy, purity and longevity, and Rag and Bone is a fine example of why. Why You'll Love It The story behind this wine is as characterful as the wine itself. When only half the fruit from this exceptional single vineyard was needed, the rest was nearly discarded. Magpie Estate stepped in, inspired by the idea that one man's trash is another man's treasure. The name came when a rag and bone van pulled up outside during a brainstorm. The result is a wine of real personality and precision, rescued from obscurity and all the better for it. Vineyard and Production Sourced from a single vineyard high up on the eastern side of Eden Valley, where warm days and cool nights allow the grapes to develop ripe, intense fruit flavours while retaining the zing and acidity that defines great Eden Valley Riesling. Grapes are harvested in the cool hours of the morning and delivered immediately to the winery, where they are processed gently through a tank press. The juice is cold settled for three days before being transferred into fermentation tanks, preserving the wine's natural freshness and aromatic purity. Tasting Notes A floral nose of jasmine, lime zest and waxed lemons over crushed marble. The palate is bright, taut and citrusy, with citrus oils adding to the palate weight. Crisp yet with plenty of body, finishing long and nervy with real persistence and drive. Perfect Pairings A natural partner for bold, aromatic dishes. Try it with chilli prawns, green Thai curry, fish or chicken laksa with chilli, coconut, ginger and lime. Also excellent alongside sushi, soft goat's cheese or a light seafood salad.

Tinpot Hut Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 2025
Tinpot Hut Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc is a bright, aromatic white from one of New Zealand's most celebrated wine regions. Drawing on fruit from two of Marlborough's finest sub-zones — the Wairau Valley and the Blind River — this is a wine that balances classic varietal expression with genuine complexity and finesse. Why You'll Love It This is Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc at its most characterful — vivid, precise, and full of personality. By blending fruit from the tropical-leaning Wairau Valley with the mineral-driven Blind River sub-region, Tinpot Hut achieves a depth that sets it apart from the crowd. It punches well above its price point and drinks beautifully from the moment you open it. Vineyard & Production Fruit was machine harvested in the cool of the night to preserve freshness, then transported swiftly to the winery for gentle pressing with minimal skin contact. The must was chilled for 48 hours before being racked to 100% stainless steel tanks, where fermentation took place at cool temperatures to lock in the wine's vibrant aromatics and varietal character. Tasting Notes The nose opens with classic blackcurrant bud and freshly cut thyme, with tropical notes of passion fruit and melon from the Wairau Valley fruit. Mineral and saline nuances from the Blind River sub-region add an elegant layer of complexity, while a fine, precise line of acidity carries the palate to a clean, refreshing finish. Perfect Pairings A wonderfully versatile food wine. Serve with goat's cheese, grilled sea bass, smoked salmon, Thai green curry, summer salads, or a simple plate of oysters. Also excellent as an aperitif on a warm evening. The Grape 100% Sauvignon Blanc
