| Description: |
|
The wine is a deep plum red with garnet hues. The nose has loads of plum, cherry and spice aromas with hints of chocolate and smoky cedar. On the palate plums, mulberries and spicy tobacco leaf flavours are interwoven with toasty, vanillan oak. The plush velvet tan- nins of the Merlot support the fruit and give persistence of fla- vour in the mouth. This is an easy to drink wine that will marry well with food.Warm, ripe luscious fruit is the driving force behind this wine. The excellent vintage conditions of 2001 allowed full develop- ment of flavour ripeness in Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes. This has been preserved in the wine by careful control of harvest and ferment conditions. After maturation, individual parcels of wine were blended to produce a medium bodied style with layers of flavour and well integrated oak support. (12 x 75 cl)

Angove's BEAR CROSSING Chardonnay South Australia
Description: Bear Crossing Chardonnay is a brilliant straw gold hue. The wine has ripe peach, melon and tropical fruit characters on the nose that follow through on to the palate. The acid is crisp and refreshing, with creamy malo characters giving good length and mouth-feel on a background of restrained oak vanilla and cash- ews.Grown on gently undulating red sandy soils in Angove™s own Nanya vineyards in South Australia this chardonnay was har- vested at night to preserve fresh fruit characters. Parcels of fruit were allocated to a range of vinification methods, with some having skin contact prior to barrel ferment and ageing sur-lie while other parcels were slowly cold-fermented in stainless steel. Barrel fermentation, extended lees maturation, bâton- nage and a small percentage of malolactic fermentation add further layers of depth, creaminess and complexity, without dominating the fresh fruit and crisp dry finish. (12 x 75 cl)
