Mother's Day wine gift guide 2020
/If you are stuck for Mother’s Day gift ideas, we assure you there is nothing that mum would enjoy more than a delicious bottle of wine. Here are some of our top picks to suit a range of budgets.
2019 Yarra Burn Vintage King Valley Prosecco $20 - Vibrant and refreshing with enticing pear, peach skin and pistachio flavours
2018 Hardy's HRB Pinot Noir $40 - An enticing, highly aromatic release full of red berry, spice and autumnal leaf, with a palate of finesse and balance and a soft juicy fruit profile
2017 Levantine Hill Syrah $80 - A silky-smooth, elegant and subtly perfumed rendition of Shiraz, this wine is better suited to the old-world name Syrah. It is restrained yet complex, providing layer upon layer of mulberry, white pepper, tarragon, cedar, earth and flint in a traditional balanced medium-bodied style.
2015 Yarra Yering Dry Red Wine No. 1 $120 - Fruit power is the hallmark of this blend, dark berry fruits and some sage adding a background herbal lift. Christmas cake mixed spice and oak is evident but all in balance with the fruit.
2015 Penfolds St Henri $135.00 - Rich and plush when young, gaining soft, earthy, mocha-like characters as it ages. This wine is a time-honoured and alternative expression of Shiraz, and an intriguing counterpoint to the illustrious Grange.
