Clovely Estate was recently awarded a ‘Five Star Winery’ status by the James Halliday Australian Wine Companion 2015 Edition, an Australia-wide recognition that only few Queensland wineries achieve. So, let’s take a closer look at some of the wines available.
Verdelho
Clovely Estate’s White Label Verdelho is crisp and zesty white wine, awarded 5 Stars by Winestate Magazine in 2013, and sipped on by the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge during their Royal Visit to Australia in 2014. The Verdelho displays intense tropical aromas, with lemongrass and lime aromas and is perfectly suited to outdoor alfresco dining on a warming October evening, matched with fresh local seafood and spicy Thai cuisine.
Grenache Shiraz Mourvèdre
The Grenache Shiraz Mourvèdre (GSM) from Clovely Estate’s Left Field range is a blend of Shiraz, and two Mediterranean varieties. The wine is aged in seasoned French oak barrels prior to bottling, resulting in cherry aromas and hints of cedar and cloves. With silky tannins and fine acidity, the dry red wine is perfect with duck and lamb, and Moroccan spiced dishes.
The Wine Store closes on 3rd October. Make sure you get your wines before this time!
