Banrock Station White
A rosé rather than white Shiraz (but don't let that put you off!), with a wonderful balance of fruit and dryness. Tastes oh-so good, oh-so fruity, with a touch of sherbet about the taste. So easy to drink, watch you don't fall over!!!
Chill and enjoy with pasta, chicken, salads, or just on its own. One bottle is not enough! Rating 4 out of 5.

De Bortoli Dry Botrytis Gewurstraminer 1998
An extraordinary Semillon wine. Normally the botrytis rot is used to concentrate the juices to make sweet desert wine, but this Gewurstraminer is the first dry botrytis wine I've ever tasted. De Bortoli produce it at their winery in the Yarra Valley in Australia.
Just as with a sweet botrytis all the juice has been concentrated by removal of water by the botrytis, the result is a thick juicy flavoured wine which really stands out from the crowd! Rating 5 out of 5. Buy De Bortoli wines at online prices.

Concha y Toro Carmenere Maipo Valley
I bought this Concha y Toro Winemaker's Lot wine from the Los Morros Vineyard in Chile for the wrong reasons! I liked the label, which was a luggage tag stuck to the bottle. But the reality is that it is good, very good. A high altitude carmenere wine from 550 metres, it is strong bramble and casis flavours with a little spice on the tannin. I'll give it 3.5 out of 5.
