2019 RS39 Navera Chenin-Blanc
A heady lift of lychee, spiced floral aromas on the bouquet lead to a
weighty medium-sweet palate of luscious cumquat and marmaladelike
fruits. As the name suggests, thirty-nine grams of residual sugar
left in the finished wine produce the perfect aromatic partner for
strong cheeses and Asian-spiced dishes.
An adventurous wine for adventurous people.

2012 Lamont’s VP
Perfect seasonal conditions allowed for a small selection of Lamont’s back
block Shiraz to be made into this fortified style which is aged in the bottle
rather than in oak.
Inky purple/black in appearance, with liquorice, spice aniseed and coffee on
the bouquet. Sumptuous favours of intense plum and fruit cake fill the palate
up to the satisfying traditional dry finish. Maturing nicely at the moment, the
wine can be enjoyed now but will continue to develop complexity for the next
ten to fifteen years.

NV Navera
A classic Australian liqueur style is made from Swan Valley low-yielding
old vine, dry grown Navera (a Muscat derivative), Pedro Ximenez (PX)
and Frontignac (Brown Muscat). The components of this wine are aged
for an average of ten years before careful selection and blending.
The colour in the glass is a brilliant deep golden/amber with a slight
khaki hue. The bouquet - a lift of ripe apricots, raisins and liqueured
cumquats. The palate is rich, warm and luscious with a long lingering
finish. To surprise and delight, try it also as a cocktail with plenty of ice
and a small wedge of lime (squeeze out the juice first).
