The 2011 vintage are already showing some great results for the whites produced, whereas the reds show some difficulty due to end of vintage problems. This Verdelho is an excellent example of a drink now and really enjoy style of white wine that I personally think is totally underrated and a bit like Pinot Gris / Grigio in that it is not understood.

Verdelho is the perfect food wine, Brilliant, clear pale straw colour it beckons from the bottle taunting you to try something different. Your bold experiment immediately pays off with the wine delivering a satisfying and thirst quenching explosion of tropical fruit & melon nose & a palate with zingy acid finish which combines to give this wine a clean, fresh summer feel.

Ok, so now you have the new baby home - What to cook? Well, zucchini flowers, figs and ham, pappardelle and ox cheek sauce, or simply light fluffy scrambled eggs with a hint of chilli. This wine revels in mixing it up and at lower alcohol it is a good companion for all meals.

Loads of Western Australians and Queenslanders take refuge with Verdelho as the perfect wine for all meals and this wine will over deliver on all fronts.
