COOL idea with seafood, a herbed
pork casserole or Japanese dishes.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

NSW’s Southern Highland Wines has released a crackajack 2011 Oldbury Reserve Sauvignon Blanc that’s very much in the style of its 2009 \u2013 the most-awarded wine in the company’s young eight-year winemaking history.<\/p>\n

Located in picturesque high-altitude and cool-climate country outside the little hamlet of Sutton Forest, Southern Highland Wines produces a credible eight white varietals and styles, and five reds, under their S H W and Oldbury labels, the latter crafted from the best fruit from their 40ha of vineyards.<\/p>\n

Winemaker Dominic Bosch used skin contact, cold maceration and low temperature fermentation to create the 2011 Oldbury Sauvignon Blanc, that exudes a stylish personality with nice varietal lychee, kiwi fruit, thyme, lemongrass, lime and asparagus aromas that follow through with a smooth seamlessness on the palate.<\/p>\n

If you’re into seafood, match this one with banana prawns, oysters or pan-fried snapper, or try it with a herbed pork casserole, Japanese dishes or blue cheese; pay $28.\u00a0 If you have trouble finding it locally, it can be ordered online through www.shw.com.au<\/a>, with freight costs additional. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

CLASSIC Evans & Tate to enjoy
with barbecued beef ribs or grilled tuna.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Sutton Forest is 1.5hrs drive from Sydney or Canberra; SHW’s Cellar Door is open daily 10am-5pm and their restaurant for lunch Thursday to Monday.<\/p>\n

ONE FOR LUNCH: FANS of Evans & Tate will know how the company’s WA Margaret River vineyards enjoyed ideal vintages from 2007 to 2009, and now the just-released 2010 Evans & Tate Classic Shiraz Cabernet reflects a fourth great vintage that year too, with warm weather and low rainfall meaning low fruit yields that offered-up outstanding flavour ripeness and tannins.<\/p>\n

At $19.99 this is a wine with a beautiful palate of forward Shiraz black-fruit flavours, making for an ideal match with barbecued beef ribs or grilled tuna.<\/p>\n
