Back on Board

Happy New Year!

After a fortnight with almost non existent internet access, I’m back on deck. I spent a week of consumption over Christmas, followed by 5 days exploring WA’s Great Southern – a beautiful and very isolated part of Australia with vineyards spread over a truly huge area, indeed the Great Southern is Australia’s largest wine region.

So will be publishing all the notes on some fantastic wines consumed over Christmas and also a few winery insights on the side.

Hope everyone enjoyed their Christmas and New Year

Welcome back! Favorite drop over the holidays? With the some hot weather in Sydney I enjoyed my favorite Summer tipple of Hunter Valley Rose!

The 08 Castle Rock Riesling :$18 at the cellar door, its deliciously crisp, dry and delicate with style and ultimate refreshment. Should of bought more.

Hi Andrew,

Happy New Year and yes, Robert @ Castle Rock makes terrific Rieslings (at a fraction of the price of Grosset’s Polish Hill!)

Andrew,

Happy new year! I look forward to the Gt Southern report. . . It’s been a few years, but the strongest memory of the area a tiny Thai restaurant in the middle of the Porongerups. . . wine wise Mo is right, Castle rock is terrific.
