Fabulous McGuigan and Tempus Two Wines
In terms of wines for any occasion, McGuigan and Tempus Two Wines have it covered. I was invited to check out a range of McGuigan and Tempus Two wines, premium Australian wine offerings, gifted with 6 bottles from these famous well-established brands. McGuigan's has over 100 years of winemaking experience, including hand-picked varieties, and a range of styles including the fuller styles that I prefer, plus some welcome low alcohol options. To be honest I drink "better wine" these days and have lost patience with boring quaffers. All of these wines could be considered to elevate the everyday experience.
More specifically -
2021 McGuigan Cellar Select Noon Harvest Shiraz
I would describe this Shiraz as a great food wine, with medium body and delightfully fruit driven. A sexy rich colour this wine hits the palate with ripe berries and some elegance on the finish. Part of the great collection of McGuigan red wines.
2018 McGuigan The Shortlist Shiraz
A bit of age on this wine doesn't go astray. Another fruit-driven Shiraz, I would place this wine on any shortlist. We love a full bodied Shiraz with plum nuances and The Shortlist Shiraz doesn't disappoint, perfect with your steak. Once again, there's elegance on the finish.
2019 McGuigan Cellar Select Cabernet Sauvignon
A premium red that hits all the right notes. Intense fruit on this full-bodied beauty, and you know you are drinking a classic Australian cabernet. Subtle oak elevates this wine, which has depth of flavour, and a hint of spice.
2017 McGuigan The Shortlist GSM
An aromatic wine with medium body from the Barossa Valley, perfect with your duck meal. A delightful GSM with berry flavours, silky tannins and umami nuances. Part of a great McGuigan's Barossa collection.
NV Tempus Two Varietal Prosecco
Cheerful drinking and perfect way to start your day or for an aperitivo, with citrus nuances and lower alcohol content of 6.8%. So for a "brunch with bubbles" this is the perfect option (or even early evening drink before dinner). Best served chilled of course, enjoyed with seafood or even cheeses and charcuterie. Check out the full collection of Tempus Two's Sparkling wine.
2020 Tempus Two Lighten Up Pinot Noir
A full flavour Pinot Noir, with vibrant colour, berry flavours and lower alcohol. Exceptional with our Salmon steaks and salad meal, and is also perfect with chicken and pizza. Easy drinking and not without some length on the palate. Check out the full collection of Lighten Up wine.
These brands are part of Australian Vintage Limited (AVL) who are at the forefront of the Australian wine industry with a world-leading reputation for quality & innovation. Premium Australian wines that are consistent in quality and perfect for any occasion. In fact they are a great showcasing of "the best of Australian wines".
Highly recommended.
