Ten Minutes by Tractor “McCutcheon” Chardonnay 2017
Winery: Ten Minutes by Tractor
Region: Mornington Peninsula - Victoria
Winemaker: Imogen Dillon & Martin Spedding
Varietal(s): 100% Chardonnay
As with the other 2017 Ten Minutes by Tractor Chardonnay releases, this is the most refined McCutcheon in living memory, even despite the vineyard tendency for more robust wines. Marzipan and matchstick funk over a palate that is so concentrated and offsets the subtle citrussy acid perfectly. The achingly low yields have delivered so little of this wine, and it’s a shame – it’s probably the most satisfying of all the single vineyard Chardonnay releases to drink now.

Following an average rainfall and relatively warm winter, it was again the spring weather leading up to flowering which caused issues. October was our third wettest on record (96mm v 62mm average) and November saw our second coldest maximum and minimum temperatures (19.3° v 20.9°, 9.6° v 10.9°), consequently the budburst interval (budburst-flowering) was our longest ever – 87 days v an average of 75 days – and flowering was our latest ever (5 December v our 21 November average). In the end, due to the excellent February and March, hang time (budburst- harvest) was average – 205 days v an average of 204 days – and harvest date was close to average – 1 April v an average of 29 March. Yields are down because of the problems around flowering but summer and early autumn saw long, slow ripening – perfect for our Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.
Grapes hand-harvested in late March, whole bunch pressed and the unsettled juice fermented by indigenous yeasts in 15% new 228 litre French oak barrels. A 10 month aging in barrel with no bâtonnage to keep wines fresher and more taut. Natural partial (74%) malolactic fermentation before bottling unfined and filtered.

A.Rodda "Tête de Cuvée" Cabernets 2018 赤霞珠(紅酒)
Winery: A.Rodda
Region: Beechworth - Victoria 澳大利亚维多利亚州
Winemaker: Adrian Rodda
Varietal(s): 74% Cabernet Sauvignon 24% Merlot 2% Petit Verdot 赤霞珠 梅乐 小维尔多 (红)
Tete de Cuvee is a french term used to describe a winery's top release - the pride of the estate. To continue the french them, this is Adrian Rodda's paean to Bordeaux, a Cabernet Sauvignon blend that also features Merlot and a touch of Petit Verdot.
It's Australian Cabernet of high order, though firm and proud currently, and needing to cellar. Poised and dense, bathing in chocolate and blackcurrant flavours and held in check by ripe but potent tannins. The fruit source is the Smith's Vineyard, planted in 1978.
It's a first release, and a partner wine to the similarly excellent Triangle Block Chardonnay. Stash some in the cellar.
"Tête de Cuvée" 是一个法语术语,用于描述酒厂的顶级出品——酒庄的骄傲。延续这种法语主题,这款酒是 Adrian Rodda 对波尔多的颂歌,是一款以赤霞珠为主的混酿酒,同时还包含了梅洛和少量的小维多。
这是一款高档的澳大利亚赤霞珠,目前表现得坚韧而骄傲,仍需熟成。它的口感优雅而浓郁,浸透着巧克力和黑加仑的风味,伴随着成熟但强劲的单宁。水果来源于1978年种植的史密斯葡萄园。
这是首批发布的酒款,与同样优秀的Triangle Block Chardonnay形成搭配。建议在酒窖中存放一些。

Allies Vermouth “Cinq à Sept” DRY Chardonnay
Winery: Allies
Region: Mornington Peninsula - Victoria 澳大利亚维多利亚州
Winemaker: David Chapman
Varietal(s): Pinot Noir + aromatics 黑皮諾
Dry, bitter and fragrant. The Cinq a Sept Extra Dry is specifically designed for those that love a very dry Martini but can be used a range of cocktails. The components are Lemon and Grapefruit peel, Cardamom, Fennel seed, black Pepper, Rosemary, Thyme, Lemon Thyme, Tarragon, Oregano and Angelica. The palate has imperceptible sweetness and is quite (some would say very) bitter. Its a mixer. We love our version of a Dry and Dry using the ED and some Bundaberg Ginger beer but use it in anything for an aromatic lift and a bitter twist.
干燥、苦涩且芬芳。Cinq a Sept Extra Dry 特别为那些喜爱非常干的马提尼的人设计,但也可以用于多种鸡尾酒。其成分包括柠檬和葡萄柚皮、豆蔻、茴香种子、黑胡椒、迷迭香、百里香、柠檬百里香、龙蒿、牛至和当归。它的口感有着难以察觉的甜味,较为(有些人会说非常)苦涩。这是一种混合饮品。我们喜欢用ED和一些邦达伯格姜啤酒调制的干干版,但也可以用在任何饮品中,以增加香气和苦味的层次。

Allies “Merricks” Chardonnay 2018 霞多麗(白葡萄酒)
Winery: Allies
Region: Mornington Peninsula - Victoria
Winemaker: David Chapman
Varietal(s): 100% Chardonnay
A delicate nose of lemon blossom and white petals. There is great presence and texture on the palate without being overwhelming. The wine is really pure and zappy with tangerine-like acidity, lively and wirey. This wine shows the restrained wine-making that lets the fruit be front and centre which is a good thing because this is some seriously good fruit.

The wines of Merricks are amongst, if not the best, wines of the Mornington Peninsula. They have an arresting balance between vibrant aromatics, silky smooth palate and firm refreshing tannins. The palest of the three wines, the 2017 Merricks displays a bright crimson edge and lifted raspberry and cranberry notes. The palate has a silky feel with very fine tannins and refreshing acidity.
