		Premium Red Wine - Bendbrook 'Pound Road' Cabernet Sauvignon 2004 Region: Adelaide Hills, South Australia With its light to medium body, this red wine wears its 15% alcohol well. A supple and silky palate of blackcurrant and cassis is supported by fine tannins and judiciously balanced French and American oak. The cool climate region of Macclesfield and steep terrain is ideal for premium red wine and while not being overly concentrated this Cab Sav has been well made and is more than sensibly priced. Friday night cheese board, Saturday night dinner party, Sunday Roast - this Cab Sav is versatile and will reward those who can bear to cellar it for up to 10 years... better get a dozen to be sure some last the distance!

		Red Wine - Bendbrook 'Goat Track' Shiraz 2004 Region: Adelaide Hills, South Australia Grown on a steeply sloping, ‘rock infested’ slope, hence the name ‘Goat Track’. Strongly coloured, this medium to full-bodied red wine has rich, powerful, blackberry and bitter chocolate fruit supported by quality, ripe tannins. The use of oak has been well controlled, as has the overall extract. This red wine will live and improve for a decade or more and drinks well above its retail price. Be quick for this one, it is very popular - this is premium red wine at it's best... we 'KID' you not! Cellars well if you don't drink it...

		Bendbrook 'Cracklin' Rosey' Rose 2005 Region: Adelaide Hills, South Australia Made from a blend of free-run, late-picked cabernet and shiraz plus viognier, this is an unusual blend for Rose. Bright, light pink in colour, it has a clean bouquet of red fruits; the soft, gently sweet red fruit flavours of the palate work well, the finish neither dry nor sweet. This is the 'red drinker's white'! Perfect for when you want to drink a lighter style red but still want complexity of flavours normally found in the heavier reds. Served very lightly chilled just above room temperature. Ahhh - this is a cracker!

		Bendbrook 'Peony' Riesling 2005 Region: Adelaide Hills, South Australia Some buttered toast aromas from bottle age are starting to add another layer of complexity to this rich and satisfying semi-mature dry Riesling. It has a genuine depth of flavor and is full of interest. From the Macclesfield area in South Australia. 93 Points & Top 100 Reviews: Huon Hooke - Gourmet Traveller Wine April/May 08 Order this wine
