Nice wines I have drunk recently - Red or White

Warm weather calls for a nice chilled white. Delivered in spades!

TBH I'm not sure my words would be any good/do it justice, except to say it's a high end ($100+) sauv blanc based blend. Something I'd ordinarily avoid like the plague.

The Triolet has however intrigued me since the '90s when I worked in a bottle shop in my teens. Was an expensive 'dry white' then, still is.

Best go to the source

This is magnificent for a $20 wine, straight off the shelf from the cellar door. Lost a little fruit, but the tertiaries make up for it.

If you like your fortifieds, it's worth checking out their website.

Went there late last year with family.Unusual to see a winery completely surrounded by suburbia.This place is fortified heaven.You can buy aged tawny in barrels or bottles ready to take home as well as muscat.Some of the flavoured tawnys are not what you would expect,but well worth tasting.
