Tempest 2006 Chardonnay, South Australia
This memorable label contains a memorable wine. Layered and interesting, rich flavors of pear, apple pie, and melon paint a lush canvas. A hint of butterscotch and fig develop on the mid-palate, while the finish sings with tangerine. The older oak barrels offer a creamy note on the back of the tongue, yet allows the beauty of the chardonnay shine. The Stelvin closure is a plus.

Tempest 2006 Shiraz, Limestone Coast, Australia
Blockbuster from beginning to finish! Smooth and dense with dark chocolate nuances, yet spicy, offering clove, vanilla, notes of balsamic, and black licorice. Raspberry liqueur with hints of blueberry and wild cherry. Concentrated flavors on the mid-palate linger on the memorable finish. Its polished tannins softly frame the fruit, spice, and complexity. This Shiraz is of exceptional quality for the money.

Tempest 2006 Cabernet Sauvignon, Limestone Coast, Australia
The Limestone Coast ocean breezes offer grapes an opportunity to cool off at night. Complexity is the result. Cherry, mint, eucalyptus, raspberries, cassis, plum, charred marshmallow, and dark chocolate flavors evolve in the mouth. The mature, polished tannins offer an attention getting structure. Twelve percent Shiraz adds a spicy edge against the layers of ripe fruit.
