Clyde Park Estate presents some of its favourite wines for this summer, whether at the beach, barbecue or dining table.
Sauvignon Blanc 2016
This wine presents lovely, bright fresh fruit flavours with varietal tropicals and grassy elements.
The palate is refreshing with lightweight fruit flavours and is very-well balanced.
An ideal wine for accompanying summer seafood banquets as well as chicken and pork dishes.
Cellar now until 2018.
Pinot Gris 2016
A tidy and pristine nose with citrus and floral characters.
The oak frames the fruit rather than giving wood flavour, bringing interest and subtle complexity. The palate is tight and restrained but with an underlying core of fruit for drive and persistence. The flavours are citrus dominated, with riper, stonefruit-like notes and creamy, textural characters on the finish.
Cellar now until 2018.
Rose 2016
On the nose, this rosé presents delicate aromas hinting at musk stick confectionary.
The palate has plenty of weight and fruit power with cherry, raspberry and red delicious apple fruit characters.
This wine is very well-balanced with a bright long finish.
Great with typical summer dishes from home-made pizza to cream-style cheeses and plates of fresh fruit and vegetables.
Pinot Noir 2015
Quite generous on the nose, this pinot has aromas reminiscent of red fruits including raspberries, mulberries and cherry-plums, with hints of dried herb, forest floor complexity, spice and charcuterie.
The palate is well-structured and flavoursome with plenty of complexity and interest.
Nice, cleansing tannin and well-integrated oak give a long finish.
Cellar now until 2024-plus.
