Wine selection at Christmas can be a good time to try some
different styles and varieties. Use teh holiday season to try
out some of these wonderful Australian wines made from less
common grape varietes.
You need to consider food matching. It's good to have something
different on hand to drink on those formal and informal
occasions. Here are are few Christmas wines I will be trying,
along with some food suggestions.
Mann Cygne Blanc (Method Champenoise) This one is a different
sparkler, and there are plenty of occasions that call for
bubbles over the silly season.
Irvine Meslier Brut Another sparkling wine from left field made
by the Master of Merlot James Irvine. This wine is made from the
obscure Petit Meslier variety. Crisp and light this will be the
ideal start to any celbration or dinner.
Kangarilla Road Viognier You won't find a better Viognier than
this, and you won't find a better varietal wine to go with
chicken, either club sandwiches or the full roast.
A Murray Cod Called Bruce Vermentino A very clumsy name for a
very good wine, made by the Murray Darling Collection and equal
best regional wine at AAVWS 2005. You will find plenty of
occasions for this wine over the summer holiday season.
Garry Crittenden Geppetto Arneis This is a wonderful wine with
honey fruit aromas but still quite crisp. Just the thing for
informal summer salad lunches, but it has enough oomph to go
with seafood as well.
Galafrey Muller Thurgau The experts scoff at this variety but if
you can get a bottle of this, produced in the cool climate of Mt
Barker WA, you may see why some people step outside of the
varietal square. Drink it with the same foods as you would have
with riesling.
Morris Sparkling Durif Drink this with the Xmas duck (why have a
turkey when you can have duck?) Sparkling reds are just the
thing with a festive roast dinner.
Cobaw Ridge Lagrein A big and rich wine that would enhance any
festive roast. The richness and depth of flavours in this wine
show a great future for this Italian variety.
Aldinga Bay Petit Verdot This wine shows why the warmer McLaren
Vale is a better habitat for the variety than its native
Bordeaux. Enjoy it with meaty dishes or the inevitable summer
barbecue.
Vigne Bottin Sangiovese A versatile wine but like all
Sangioveses it cries out for food; so give it a go with anything
Italian, pasta, antipasto, veal.
Pizzini Verduzzo Light and drinkable it can be enjoyed as a late
afternoon beverege, or it can accompany fruit based deserts.
Leda Swan Pedro Ximenes This is a lovely desert wine, showing
all of the beautiful flavours of PX, but it isn't fortified.
(11% alcohol means you can have a second glass!) Just the thing
with christmas cake or mince tarts.
