2008 Giaconda, ‘Naturalists’ wines and Mr Egon Muller is in town.

18 March 2009
It's party time here at EEC and no we are not talking about Adelaide's crazy month of March. We've got Fringe, there's been WOMAD and we eagerly await the upcoming 'fun' of the Clipsal 500. But no, it's party time because this week see's the fun times of the 'Naturalist' (a term we coined, not them) 'Road Show', one the worlds greatest winemakers will be in town, plus the annual offer from Giaconda is now available.

Giaconda Pre-Arrival Offer

Yes, the almighty Kinzbrunner stables have released a new vintage. And boy it must be tough in the agriculture field – whether it’s Jack Frost or smoke taint, there seems to be hurdles. Frost ruined the majority of the ’07 vintage, so we now offer you… 2008 Giaconda.

For further details and the list of wines available, read on here.

Fridays - Tasting/Road Show - with Lucy Margaux/Domaine Lucci, KT & the Falcon and the new release Shobbrook wines, Friday the 20th of March from 5pm.

This Friday we are showcasing some ‘naturalists’, not in the bare sense but in terms of farming and practices. We will be looking at the wines of Lucy Margaux/Domaine Lucci, KT & the Falcon and the new release Shobbrook wines. Whilst these names are not new to our clients & friends, the ‘road-show’ is.

Egon Muller Dinner

One of the great winemakers of the current era in worldwide will be upon our doorstep very soon: Egon Muller. Rated by Decanter Magazine as one of the top ten white wine makers in the world, described as Germany's Domaine de la Romanee Conti by wine scribe John Gilman and he also produces a little Riesling in the Adelaide Hills called Kanta, thus the reason for his visit... It's vintage time!

We have been lucky enough to steal Egon for one night only, and it should be stunner. With the release of his very limited 2007 German wines on show, a sneek preview of his 08 Q Riesling, a vertical of Kanta from 2005 to the forthcoming 2008, plus a very special number stowed away in Egons suitcase. The Dinner will be upstairs at Chianti Classico this coming Monday the 23rd of March from 7pm. Tickets will be $165 which you can buy on-line, or buy sending us an e-mail at wine@eastendcellars.com.au or give us a call on 08 8232 5300. Seats are very limited so if this is of interest do not delay.
