First Drop Wines... new releases and dinner!

16 June 2008

"First Drop is about passion….. for life, fun and flavour!........a lifelong commitment to making kick arse booze.....wines with flavour and texture, and a splash of funk…..eclectic varieties from unique vineyards in the great regions of the Barossa, Adelaide Hills, McLaren Vale ….wines to drink, not just appreciate......in short…Mother’s Milk!"

First Drop wines have only been on the scene for a couple of years now but have made a great impression from the word go. Now East End Cellars along with Chace Agencies and Farina Kitchen & Bar are very pleased to have dinner alongside their new releases. There's personality, poise and passion in the First Drop Wines, add to that the stunning cooking from Matthew Goodlet and we have a winner.

The dinner will held on Thursday the 26th of June from 7pm. For bookings please call Farina on 8227 1007.

For further details check out the invite with menu.

Remember you can always send us an e-mail or give us a call if you would like any further information or to place an order.

First Drop ‘The Big Blind’ Nebbiolo, Barbera Serious yet fun, that is the approach of the First Drop lads, and it also pretty much sums up this wine.

First Drop 'Mothers Milk' Shiraz (2006)

First Drop 'Mothers Milk' Shiraz Not a “sledgehammer” proclaim the winemakers of this dangerously juicy drop. No doubt about its Barossa origins though, with layers of silky briary fruit that immediately fill the mouth. Plenty of sweet berries but also spice, dark choccy and charcuterie meats. Fresh acid keeps it balanced and enjoyable to the very last drop. (pun intended!) [ Read more ]

First Drop 'Bella Coppia' Arneis (2007)

First Drop 'Bella Coppia' Arneis "This is the ultimate summer cleanser. Forget your G&T, this Arneis from the cool climbs of the Adelaide Hills will quench and refresh. Citrus and lime zest with a hint of nashi pear and minerality. But this wine isn’t just an aperitivo tease. Its purity of fruit, zippy persistence, and finely textured finish make it the ‘perfect match’ for a feast of dishes." Sourced from First Drop website [ Read more ]
