2019 Carillion Origins ‘Feldspars’ Orange Region Shiraz

Posted on September 28, 2022 by Tony Peters

I can’t say that a piano accordion is one of my favourite instruments, but I can’t say I dislike it either.  If you’ve walked through small villages in some European countries, you hear them quite often and they blend in … Continue reading →

2021 Dr Edge Riesling

Posted on September 25, 2022 by Tony Peters

I read a quote by David Bowie recently: “I don’t know where I’m going from here, but I promise it won’t be boring.”  He certainly was an enigmatic individual and true to his word.  Throughout his career he would push … Continue reading →

2018 Levantine Hill Estate Cabernet Sauvignon

Posted on September 21, 2022 by Tony Peters

When I first tasted this wine, I couldn’t help but think, this is Cabernet and a serious one at that.  Don’t get me wrong, there is a seriousness about it but, the more I tasted it (and I couldn’t help … Continue reading →

2021 Bay of Fires Pinot Noir and Chardonnay

Posted on September 18, 2022 by Tony Peters

I was fascinated by a story about female stage performers in the late 1800s and early 1900s and it was such that there were not many of them around.  A good example is a lady by the name of Gladys … Continue reading →

2017 Grey Sands Pinot Gris

Posted on September 9, 2022 by Tony Peters

I was not familiar with the term ‘ear worm’ until very recently.  It comes from the German term, ‘ohrwurm’.  As it turns out, it’s generally associated with music where a song or melody, good or bad, gets stuck in your … Continue reading →

Posted on September 8, 2022 by Tony Peters

Moorilla Estate Sparkling Releases

Posted on September 7, 2022 by Tony Peters

I haven’t seen the movie ‘Gone with the Wind’ and I don’t know many people that have.  In my defence, it was released way before I was born.  However, everyone seems to know the famous line, as said by Rhett … Continue reading →

2016 Levantine Hill Blanc de Blanc

Posted on September 5, 2022 by Tony Peters

It is such that sparkling wine (Champagne if you like) is the wine for a celebration, and rightly so. “I just won the lottery; break out the Riesling” just doesn’t have the same ring to it, does it?    It seems … Continue reading →

Posted on September 4, 2022 by Tony Peters

When it comes to a combination lock, you have to get the numbers right and in the correct order, to release the lock and access what is being secured. If you don’t, it just doesn’t work and, let’s face it, … Continue reading →
