Wines
Food
Scallywag, Chardonnay, Rich White, South, Australia, Intense fruit fragrances, rich with lemon cream and delicious on the palate with nice length and body; delicious.
Meredith Dairy
A blend of goat and sheep’s milk cheeses with spices.
The Floozie, Sangiovese, Rose, McLaren Vale, Australia, We like our rosé fresh and lively - which is why it’s based on Sangiovese... famed for its crisp acidity and bright aromas and flavors. Floozie will no doubt make for a happier human race – or at least for a few select members who partake of this wine!
Anchovy Stuffed Olives
From Spain, mild green olives are stuffed with mild anchovies (yes we said mild). Delicious.
The Rascal, Shiraz, Bold Red, McLaren Vale Australia, Y, “Shiraz and McLaren Vale”. A famous pairing. Shiraz in McLaren Vale grows well, always ripens, and with correct vineyard management, produces wines of great depth, flavor and structure…which describes this wine
Ham and Fontina Savory Quick Bread
This quick bread is more like a quiche than a bread.
Black Ops, Shiraz, Saperavi, Nero D'Avola, Bold Red, South Australia, Intense red fruit explosion with notes of dried blueberries; more of the same in the mouth, full, powerful, complex and fresh at the same time; well-made
Bruschetta Eggplant & Red Pepper
From France, loaded with eggplant, red pepper and spices.
The Villain, Cabernet Sauvignon, Bold Red, McLaren Vale, Australia, Y, "The French talk of ‘cassis’ as the true essence of Cabernet fruit, and they get it in the warmer years in Bordeaux. We see it every year; an amalgam of savory notes and black-currant". Full, delicious and long
Bresaola
The “baking spice” flavors in this 100% beef salami from Lombardy should complement the wine well.
Jekyll & Hyde, Shiraz, Viognier, Bold Red, McLaren Vale, Australia, This wine is full-bodied, but moves deftly across the palate in a continuous stream of black fruits, dark chocolate and cedar, the tannins ripe and synchronous
Bush Buff Smoky Buffalo Cheese This snappy cheese from Australia is bright orange. It gets its’ color from smoky outback bush tomatoes blended with spices.
