Mastronardi Pinot Grigio 2010

Gary Killops — Thu, 12 Jan 2012 01:53:16 +0000

Winemaker’s Notes:
This Pinot Grigio has bright acidity and an opulent mouth feel of pear, green apple and honey dew melon. An essence of honey continues through to the crisp clean finish. The 2010 growing season produced exceptionally high quality grapes, which has contributed to the rosy gold colour of the Pinot Grigio. Pairs well with seafood, light pastas, and creamy cheeses.

Mastronardi Merlot Cabernet 2008

Gary Killops — Tue, 08 Nov 2011 23:13:51 +0000

Winemaker’s Notes:
The marriage of two noble varietals has created this wonderful wine of distinction, style and taste. Aromas are chocolate covered cherries with hints of vanilla. Flavours of ripe spicy berries shine through the lively tannins followed by a long finish. Enjoy with game, grilled fare and robust cheeses.

Mastronardi BriAnjë Riesling 2008

Gary Killops — Thu, 16 Sep 2010 23:16:08 +0000

Winemaker’s Notes:
We lovingly dedicate this wine to the memory of our precious daughter Brittany Alyssa Mastronardi. BriAnjë translates to “Angel Brittany”. Brittany touched so many lives in her short 11 years. She taught us to celebrate life, love and family.

A portion of all sales of BriAnjë will be donated to the Batten disease in memory of Brittany. It has been our honour to share her beauitful spirit with you! Celebrate life and toast to BriAnjë!!

This Riesling will surprise you with its floral aromas that evolve into flavours of pineapple and honeysuckle. It lends itself to grilled chicken, soft cheeses, and spicy foods.
