Wine Chronicles
Chardonnay
Wines made from Chardonnay are finely textured, beautifully aromatic, long on
the finish, and they age particularly well. Their bouquet is dominated by hazelnut,
honey and hawthorn or acacia, usually underlined by notes of butter, brioche
and toast. Chardonnay often displays lively scents of ripe lemons, tropical fruit,
especially pineapple, and melon in Australia.
Sauvignon Blanc
Sauvignon Blanc has a very characteristic aroma, best described as lemon,
grapefruit, Muscat, peach, blackcurrant bud, linden, passion fruit, fresh cut
grass, gooseberries blackcurrant bud or boxwood. Sauvignon is the king of the
dry white wines of Bordeaux, where it contributes its acidity and freshness to
blends with Semillon and Muscadelle.
Riesling
Riesling wines may be dry or sweet but they are always full-bodied, wellstructured and aromatic. Their delicate, distinguished aromas are composed of
subtle notes of lemon, Muscat and spices. One of the most features of older
Riesling is the smell of petrol. Riesling demi-sec and sweet wines are teeming with
grapefruit and orange notes after a while in bottle.
Pinot Gris
Pinot Gris wine aroma is often spicy and honeyed, with floral and fruity notes,
such as pear and apple, and often a hint of mushroom. The Pinot grigio style of
Italy is a light-bodied, often lean wine that is light in color with sometimes spritzy
flavors that can be crisp and acidic.
Viognier
Viognier wines are golden, dry, soft and full, with an extremely rich nose of
Muscat, apricot, acacia, honey, violet. The white grape alone gives rise to
Condrieu wines and blended with Syrah, the red grape, to make Côte Rôtie.
Gewürztraminer
Gewürztraminer is an extremely aromatic wine; the most frequent notes are
lychee, rose and clove. Late harvested can present scents of apricot, peach,
tropical and candied fruit.

Wine Chronicles
Cabernet Sauvignon
Cabernet Sauvignon is rich in tannin and colour and gives the wine solidity and
wonderful cellaring potential. This well-known Haut Medoc grape is remarkably
well structured and elegant displaying intense aromatic complexity. Young wines
smell of red fruit: blackcurrant, raspberry and sometime bilberry in particularly
sunny years. As the wine matures in new oak barrels, it becomes more supple can
develop superb bouquet such as coffee, caramel and dark chocolate.
Merlot
Merlot grape are plums, leathery, fruitcake, gamey and meaty. The tannins may be
softer and lesser bodied than the cabernet. Other characters may be
blackcurrant plum spice and coffee. Often blended with other Bordeaux grape a
variety this grape is softer and with not so stringent tannins.
Syrah/Shiraz
The wine from shiraz are powerful and full bodied, with concentrated aromas like
raspberry, blackberry, licorice, black pepper, plum, spice and prunes. With
maturation earthy notes appear adding complexity and further interest of wet
leather, game flavors and aromas are often present.
Pinot Noir
Pinot noir wines are light in tannins, have aromas and flavors of strawberry,
cheery, plum Raspberry, mushrooms, earthiness and beetroot. Red berry
characteristics increase in increasing ripeness of the fruit. Other notable
flavours on further maturation include earthiness, barnyard, straw, spicy and
nutty with maturation.
Zinfandel
The wine tends to exhibit a dark purple hue with hints of strawberry, plumb, raisin,
spice, leather, and tar. Zinfandel has a mouth-filling characteristic that is
sometimes described as being jammy or chewy. The colour of a wine is deep red,
bordering on black. Zinfandel is a spicy, peppery wine, with a hint of fruity flavor berries or dark cherries are often the taste range, whilst the intensity of these
characteristics may vary.
