Westend 3 Bridges Shiraz 2006
NZD $28.95 NZD $24.95
Out of stock
This wine has also received more medals than an army general, including a gold at the Perth Wine Show. A glorious vintage which has produced a big, fat and almost chewy Shiraz with intense black pepper and spice, yet with soft, rounded tannins and a long robust, chocolate finish. Keep this one for 5 years, also. Again, we think this is a steal for the price and strongly advise stocking up large.

Westend Richland Merlot 2008
NZD $17.95 NZD $15.95
Most of you will be familiar with wines from this outstanding producer situated in Griffith, N.S.W. This is an instant stunner with its plum, dark berry fruit appeal but yet emphasizing its cooler growing conditions therefore does not exhibit overly ripe or aggressive tannins. On the palate it has wonderful intensity with very careful handling of oak which allows its typical terroir and natural characters of the wine to come through. This is an excellent partner for a Sunday roast or BBQ lamb. Drink now or cellar for the next 2-3 years.

Westend Richland Viognier 2007
NZD $18.95 NZD $16.95
Our latest import from one of the top producers in Australia, Viognier which seems to be a lot more suitable to Australia than New Zealand, is always a great wine to have with lite dishes, fish and as an aperitif. This is their first vintage from Westend and is promising to become another variety that offers wonderful potential. At the moment it is fresh, clean, bursting with apricot and peach fruit, quite luscious showing very good depth, length and dry. Ideal with roast white meats, soft cheeses, fish and shell fish.
