Small Wonder Riesling

 Though I love the Small Wonder Rose, the Riesling was not great. Much too sharp perhaps, no depth. Tamar Valley. 

Nocton Estate Chardonnay

 Coal River Valley, Southern Tasmania. The Chardy is perhaps too lemony for my taste. But Nocton is the first to make a Chenin Blanc in Tasmania. 


Devil's Corner 2022 Riesling

 Surprisingly good, given I am used to Clare Valley Riesling., and given that Devil's Corner can be run-of-the-mill. 

Strelley Farm Estate NV Rose

 A very peachy sparkling in perfume and on the palate and in its colour. Coal River Valley near Cambridge. A blend of selected vintages: hence no year on the bottle. Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. https://www.fogarty.wine/products/strelley-farm-nv-sparkling-rose
