Speaker 1 (00:00):
From the sports field to the shearing shed. It's the
Country Sport Breakfast with Brian Kelly on Gold Sport.
Speaker 2 (00:19):
We're talking wine and in particular on the show today,
like last week with Michael Cooper the New World Wine Awards. Michael,
good morning, Good morning Brian. So last week we spoke
about the top white wines and we had a bubbles
as well. So this week let's look at the reds
and perhaps a rose.
Speaker 3 (00:36):
Yep, that sounds great, Well, let's do the rose first.
Now it's from Central Otago and it's made from Pino noir,
and that's sort of emerging. Is quite a regional strength.
You know, a significant percentage of the country's best rosees
I noticed coming from Central Otago and made from Pino noir.
This one is the brand is Tinicano, Central Otago Rose
(01:01):
from twenty twenty three itself for twenty three dollars. It's
the champion rose the New World Wide Awards. It's probably
at its peak right now. One good trend I've noticed
is that rosees New Zealand roses are maturing a lot
better than what they used to. It used to be
the younger the better, but now I find a lot
of them are actually at their best when they say
(01:22):
maybe twelve to eighteen months old, like this one. Right,
So the Ticano twenty twenty three rose. It's still bright pink,
it's fresh, it's full bodied, and it's got excellent depth
of peach, strawberry and spice flavors. It's dry and smooth,
and it's the Champion rose.
Speaker 2 (01:40):
Perfect after a barbecue on a summer's night. Okay, let's
look at the reds then.
Speaker 3 (01:45):
Yep, and so we've got a pino noir, a mail Beck,
a Serra and a Charraz cabinet. The pino noir is
from Martinborough. I think it's very good value. It's lunar
estate Martinborough Pino are twenty twenty two. Now listeners can
buy this wine for twenty three dollars, and really, I
(02:07):
would argue it's as good as many pino nours that
you'd be paying, say thirty five dollars for.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (02:13):
It's fragrant, it's full bodied, it's got youthful ripe, cherry
and RedBerry flavors. It's got gentle spicy notes. It's got
considerable complexity and a deliciously smooth finish. So it's already
a pleasure to drink twenty three dollars Lunar Estate Martin
Borough Pino twenty twenty two. Now for a contrast and style,
(02:36):
we're off to Argentina for a Mailback. Oh wow, this
is this is the champion. This one the trophy for
champion varietal red meaning in other words, made for one
great variety. And it's Trapeche Pure Black Mailback twenty twenty two. Interestingly,
(02:57):
this wine was made without the use of oak barrels,
so it's very much what Wine make Us called a
fruit driven style of red wine. It's dark, it's full bodied,
it's vibrant, and it's supple, and it's got quite concentrated flavors.
It's spicy and beryish and I thought a distinct hint
of dark chocolate. So if you like your red's, you know,
(03:19):
full bodied and rich, that Trapiche pure Black Melbeck twenty
twenty two, at nineteen dollars is a very goodbye.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
Yeah, absolutely, nineteen dollars for sure.
Speaker 3 (03:29):
Now the champion red wine of the whole show is
a great buye at eighteen dollars. It's Church Road Hawks
bay Rah twenty twenty one. Now, this is the sort
of the lowest levels Surah in the Church Road range.
You know, they've got several levels above, like the McDonald's
series and Tom and others. But what I think this
(03:52):
wine is doing, Bryan, it reflects the high quality of
the twenty twenty one vintage. It's fragrant, it's smooth, it's
it's very distinctly Sorrah. It's got those black pepper characters
that really, you know, are characteristic of Sorrah. It's got
strong flavors of berries and plums and dark chocolate nuts,
distinctly spicy, streak, good complexity. So that's a terrific buy
(04:15):
at eighteen dollars the Church Surrah. But one more wine
and it's my pack. If I had to drink one
of these red ones for the rest of my life,
the one I'd go for is your Lumber Samuel's collection
Barossa Chiraz Cabinet Sauvignon twenty twenty one. Now this wine
(04:36):
is twenty dollars, so it's relatively affordable. It's unexpectedly classy,
I thought, very skillfully crafted. It's weighty, full bodied. It's
got rich hite, black currant, plum, spice and mint flavors.
It's ripe, it's seductively smooth, and what I found was
that I just kept wanting to go back and have,
(04:58):
you know, another sip, another sip. So it's a delicious
red It's unexpectedly classy though, for twenty dollars. And that's
your lumber. Samuel's collection Barossa Charraz Cabinet, Sauvignon, twenty twenty one.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
It's a fair variety there, Argentina, Australia and New Zealand.
It's pretty good.
Speaker 3 (05:16):
Oh yeah, it's a very very good lineup and these
wines do represent genuinely good value.
Speaker 2 (05:22):
Fantastic Michael, always great to chat. Have a great week
and we'll talk next week. Great, right, Michael Cooper described
me some wonderful wines there. I love the use of
the words that you seductively smooth.
