The EEC July "Wine of the Month"

2009 Ducks in a Row 'Erect Habit' Mataro @ $65

This a righteous and commanding Mataro with sublime balance. Mulberry bush waves past your nose, while the palate, with its mouthwatering acidity and long, fine tannins is met by blueberries and subtle spice. The whole package is seamless – from label to liquid – the Erect Habit will excite.  
There are definite leaders in Oz for this varietal but we reckon this could be the new benchmark.

Vietti Castiglione Barolo (2006)

Vietti Castiglione Barolo pale ruby color with garnet hues and powerful aromas of rich, ripe cherries with intricate complexities of spice, tea leaves and rose petals.

Hahndorf Hill Blaufrankisch (2008)

Hahndorf Hill Blaufrankisch Blaufränkisch is a red grape variety that produces wines of superb quality in its homeland of Austria, where it ranks as the pre-eminent grape in the red wine province of Burgenland. UK wine guru Jancis Robinson has referred to this blueblood varietal as the 'Pinot Noir of Eastern Europe'. Hahndorf Hill Winery is currently the only producer of Blaufränkisch in Australia. This 2008 vintage has produced a wine of great suppleness and elegance, with a gentle tumble of spice, dark cherries, berries, violets and fennel. It has excellent structure on the palate.

Yangarra High Sands Grenache (2007)

Yangarra High Sands Grenache Incredibly expressive plump fruit is the star of the show, supported by rich cocoa and savoury tones with fine tannins to boot. Where this Yangarra shines is within its ability to display tremendous fruit weight but managing to pull back so as not to be seen as flabby. This is a must try wine; not just for Grenache fans but for all wine lovers. [ Read more ]

Varietal: Red Wine > Grenache
Price: $75.00 $80.00 each

Sassicaia (2005)

Sassicaia "The 2005 Sassicaia is another strong effort from Tenuta San Guido. Medium in body, it reveals an understated, delicate expression of smoke, herbs, tobacco and sweet dark fruit. The wine possesses compelling harmony and a gorgeous sense of inner perfume that flows from start to finish. This is an outstanding showing in a very challenging vintage. Sassicaia is mostly Cabernet Sauvignon, with a small amount of Cabernet Franc. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2025." Wine Advocate [ Read more ]

Region: Italy > Tuscany
Varietal: Red Wine > Cabernet Blend
Price: $200.00 $270.00 each

Spinifex Taureau (2008)

Spinifex Taureau Not the most conventional blend out there - but it works so well. This wine is all about the texture with a sensational mouth feel complementing great flavours of dried cherries and fleshy blackberries. There is a slight lean towards the Spanish dominate Tempranillo with flashes of that classic cherry cola. The sweetness of this fruit is controlled well by the dry and herbaceous Cabernet and Carignan with plenty of tannin to boot. [ Read more ]

Price: $26.00 $32.00 each
