Alternative Whites are Allwhite
It's been a mighty long time since we've offered an alternative whites doz.
No excuses; the last one sold really well, and this is overdue.
This is a cracking alternative white pack, featuring two Vermentinos, one of which scored 97 points from Halliday, a Fiano and a Chenin, which Kim Brebach described as the best Aussie Chenin he's ever had.
There's an awesome bonus too, in the form of First Creek's 96 point Murphy Sem. Two of these wines - the Halliday 96 and 97 pointers - were made by Liz Silkman, just crowned by James Halliday as his Winemaker of the Year!

Wines In This Pack
Hunter Valley, NSW
96pts James Halliday
First Creek and Tyrrell's are arguably the finest producers of Semillon in Australia. Given the world class nature of these wines, it also places them as exceptional producers on the world stage. These top Aussie Semillons are amongst the longest lived white wines on the planet and are a joy to drink from release, when zippy and crunchy with fresh fish or light veg dishes. Once mature, at 10 or 20, or 30 or more years of age, they pair magnificently with chicken, pork, foie gras, blue cheese and soft cheeses. The First Creek Oakey Creek 22 has just picked up 96 from James Halliday and offers an explosion of tropical fruits, peach and citrus, It has exceptional length and liveliness, great now and will cellar incredibly well.
Hunter Valley, NSW
97pts James Halliday
In the words of James Halliday, who scored this 97 points, ‘This variety is grown all over Corisca, and I've spent days tasting it there. First Creek's effort is extraordinary. It has a perfumed bouquet and a rich palate with a blend of tropical and citrus fruits comforting every part of the mouth and then allowing the inclusion of lime-infused acidity on the finish. Wow.’
McLaren Vale, SA
95pts Kim Brebach, 92pts Wine Pilot
Sourced entirely from the Dowie vineyard in Blewitt Springs which was planted in 1933. These may be the oldest, still bearing chenin blanc vines in Australia. The wine launches with notes of struck match, reflective of the barrel work done with this wine in French oak. The palate is textural, offering red fruits, lemon, ginger, orange blossom with a wonderfully creamy aspect, with some cedary grain from the oak. Acid is plentiful, the finish long and mineral. This is lovely already and will improve for a decade or more. It is on track to be an absolute stunner.

93 pts Australian Alternative Variety Award, 93pts Sam Kim
A lovely, light and crisp Vermentino offering citrus and salinity, minerality and more. Understated, subtle and yet complex.
McLaren Vale, SA
92pts Sam Kim
A bright, fresh wine combining the flavours of stone fruit, ripe pear and a touch of honey. Mouthfeel is good, and this wine responds well to decanting.
