2008 Boireann Granite Belt La Cima Nebbiolo

Borieann says on its label that it 'produces limited quantities of premium red wine'. Their vineyard is relatively small, but only grows red, and they're on the Aria Brisbane restuaruant wine list. Nebbiolo is originally an Italian grape (Piedmont), and it's also produced by other wineries in the Granite Belt region  (suce as Golden Grove) and on the region's Strange Bird trail, since Nebbiolo is not a very common wine in Australia, though produced in South Australia, one of Australia's, and the world's, great wine-producing areas.

2009 Wright Robertson Glencoe, New England, The Watershed Chardonnay

Around $19.00 at The Cellars. It has a certified organic label. Green bottle. It's gold leaf in colour. There's and oily textures to the wine in the glass. And pine in the aroma with maybe some stewed apricot. Peach and melon on the palate which is very dry and tart. It has a fullish mouthful but with much of the sensation on the tongue.

2010 Wright Robertson Glencoe, New England,The Watershed Riesling

This is 'made in the cold'. The website says 'this is the first dry Riesling ... produced as a premium wine' but from'fruit from Topper’s Mountain vineyard' .' $22

Wright Robertson Glencoe, New England, Minus Twelve

The most annoying thing about this wine is that it has no year and no naming of the grape variety/ies used. Next, it is a sweetish wine. The website says it's a verdelho. $16.

2010 Wright Robertson Glencoe Snow Gums Pinot Gris Gewurztraminer

This is a New England wine. Gewurztraminer is making an appearance in a number of wines and is not to be confused with something necessarily sweet. This is an excellent combination made by the New England winemaker Scott Wright for a pinot gris with that lovely slight pink tinge. The website says the winery was 'excited to have produced this ... blend'. In colour it is pale salmon, pink-tinged white gold, or a copper-shot gold suffusing it - the best colour a pinto gris can be. There is orange in its perfume. In the mouth it's like drinking salmon silk and red oranges with some mustard. $22
