2002 Veuve Clicquot Rich Reserve Vintage Champagne

Veuve Cliquot, Champagne, France

Normally $115. Rich Reserve is a magnificant vintage bubbly that has a sweeter dosage added making it an off dry style of bubbly. The basic blend is composed of 21 Grands and Premiers Crus (55% Pinot Noir, 33% Chardonnay and 12% Pinot Meunier) vintages. "This wine has a brilliant, attractive goldenyellow colour. The nose is extremely fruity, including aromas of fresh fruit compote, citrus fruits and peaches. When the wine is agitated, more spicy (cinnamon, liquorice) and buttery (marzipan) notes appear. The dosage plays its role perfectly; the bouquet seems more generous and concentrated. In the mouth, the wine is rounded and full-bodied, with Pinot Noir grapes (the majority variety used in this wine) providing strength and structure. The presence of Chardonnay gives the finish a fresh, pure touch with a finely integrated dosage. The wine ends with notes of caramelised citrus fruits, dried apricots and honey. Stored under good conditions, the Vintage Rich 1999 can be kept for 8-10 years, during which time it will develop complexity and aromatic richness."

2005 Muga Riserva Rioja

muga, Rioja, Spain

A classic bottle aged Rioja."70% tempranillo, 20% garnacha and the rest mazuelo and graciano) Bright ruby. Vibrant, seductive perfume of black raspberry, powdered rose, anise and minerals. Weighty but lively cherry and dark berry flavors are brightened by zesty minerals, picking up a candied licorice quality with aeration. The finish repeats the deep dark berry note and leaves exotic flowers and minerals behind. Very elegant wine that suavely blends richness and finesse"92/100 Tanzer "One of my favorite Rioja estates, Bodegas Muga continues to fashion traditionally made cuvees, but also has a foot in the future." R.Parker. This wine is a blend of 70% Tempranillo, 20% Granacha and 10% Mazuelo y Granciano. " It delivers an alluring nose of cedar, tobacco, earth notes, mineral, and black cherry. This is followed by an elegant wine with good depth and enough ripe tannin to evolve for several years. Nicely balanced and long in the finish, it will be at its best from 2012 to 2020 if not longer."90/100 Parker

2006 Lucien Le Moine Bourgogne Blanc Chardonnay

Lucien Le Moine, Burgundy, France

A brand new producer for us. We are very excited to be able to offer these wines as their production is no more than 100 barrels a year and everything is hand crafted. This wine is not a straight bourgogne as it is a blend of three villages:Monthelie,Pernard and Montagny. "Saouma and Brakin also put great stock in phenolic maturation and acid-retention in the fruit, some employment of whole clusters, retention and absorption of lees in the young wines cold temperatures, low sulfur, late malolactic, one sole gravity racking, late bottling and in general as close as possible an approximation to the way they imagine vinifications proceeded prior to the second World War." Parker 2006 has produced superb white burgundies with real density and power,they will be awesome wines.

$54.99

Krug Grande Cuvee Champagne

Champagne - Other, Champagne, France

A sophisticated wine drinkers champagne presented in a lovely gift box. It is like drinking a fine wine because of the complexity of the blending from aged cuvees from top cru vineyards. Krug Grande Cuvee is the timelessly stylish signature of Krug, a breathtaking champagne that effortlessly balances richness and freshness, power and finesse. A gleaming gold colour, an extravagantly expansive bouquet, an almost creamy texture. Then, an explosion of flavours, at once mellow and mature, crisp and clean. Its a dream drop.

$265.00

Hunters Miru Miru Methode Traditionele

Hunters Wines, Marlborough, New Zealand

This is a methode that we have sold pallets and pallets of because Hunters age the wine far longer than the average methode and this gives the wine that yeasty character that all good bubblys should display. Miru Miru is the Maori term for bubbles. This is one of the few NZ sparkling wines to include the champagne grape varity Pinot Meunier in its blend, although at 5% it plays a relatively minor role to chardonnay ( 58% ) and pinot noir ( 37% ). "A sophisticated sparkler blending Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier to give a delciate, complex and quite champagne-like style with attractive lifted bread-like characters. The wine is dry, soft textured and very attractive." Bob Campbell.

$21.99

Craggy Range 3 btl Gift Pack

Craggy Range Vineyards, Gisborne & Hawkes Bay, New Zealand

Three highly reviewed and excellent bottles in a very stylish cardboard gift case. Wines in the box are 2008 Ara Sauvignon, 2006 Merlot and 2006 Te Muna Pnot Noir. An excellent gift.

$84.99

2007 Farnetella Chianti Colli Sensi

Felsina, Tuscany, Italy

Castello di Farnatella is the second property of Giuseppe Mazzocolin, who is best known for the reference-point wines he produces at Felsina. The Farnatella wines have improved quite a bit since I first started tasting them a few years ago. At their best, the entry-level wines can offer excellent value. "The 2007 Chianti Colli Senesi is a pretty, floral wine with nice freshness to its fruit and an attractive, soft-textured personality. The higher altitude vineyards at Farnatella combined with the increased presence of sand in the vineyards yield perfumed, mid-weight wines. Anticipated maturity: 2009-2012." Parker

$32.99

2004 Providence

Auckland - Other, Auckland, New Zealand

Never before have we been able to offer this unique NZ icon. It sells for eye watering amounts in offshore markets ( $500 plus per bottle ) and is highly sort after."This is one of New Zealands most expensive wines, sold in a dozen overseas markets but rarely seen here. The 2.5 ha vineyard at Matakana is close planted in Merlot ( principally ), Cabernet Franc and Malbec, and the wine is matured for up to two years in all new French oak barriques. It is typically a perfumed and graceful red that impresses not with sheer power, but with its harmony, complexity and silky elegance. If your a Bordeaux fan, you'll love it." M.Cooper. Limited stock available. (A must for showing overseas visitors that NZ can produce Bordeaux styled reds!)

$112.00

2004 Craggy Range 'Sophia' Merlot/Cab.Franc

Craggy Range Vineyards, Gisborne & Hawkes Bay, New Zealand

Museum stock just released ( very limited ) especially for Caro's. What a pleasure to get aged wine straight from Craggys cellars which means it is in mint condition. Massive, massive reviews means this is not to be missed. A beauty for Christmas. 94 Points (5 stars) from Bob Campbell who writes "A blend of the very best merlot (92 per cent), cabernet franc (7 per cent) and cabernet sauvignon (1 per cent) grown in Craggy Range's Gimblett Gravels vineyards. Big, dense red with strong dark berry, licorice, dried spice and classy oak flavours. Although the tannins are firm and the flavours to some extent impenetrable, the wine promises to reward anyone with sufficient willpower to keep it for up to a decade, possibly more." Also 5 Stars Cuisine and 92/100 from Robert Parkers Wine Advocate. A one off not to be missed.

$49.99

2006 Quinta de Roriz Vintage Port 6 btl case

A gift case of vintage port presented in a wooden 6 bottle box. This spectacular 42 hectare vineyard is all harvested by hand and the grapes are trodden by foot in the traditional lagares (33 men for a total of 148 man hours). The main components are old mixed vines of Touriga nacional and Tinta Roriz.This is vintage port at its quintessential best and particularly good value. A great vineyard and the experience of the Symmington family."an immense deep purple-black colour,a rich and lifted nose of violets and spices. On the palate, it has complex flavours of rich black chocolate, ripe red fruits and a fine finish of peppery tannins that will give great ageing potential." Peter Symington.
