WITHIN YOUR MEANS
2005 Brown Brothers Pinot Grigio $15-16
If you're in the mindset for pinot gris, pick this light, slightly sweet tasting white with its good length of flavour and attractive aromatics. This is a crisp and refreshing wine if served cool, so suits summertime well.
Available widely.
THE SPLURGE
2005 Peregrine Riesling $20 to $21
Excellent riesling, especially with spicy Thai food such as prawns in fish sauce and chilli. Yes, this wine can handle heat without losing its aromatics and dry style. Love the lime and fresh tastes in every glass of this. Screwcap.
Available from specialist wine stores or contact Peregrine Wines in Central Otago, phone (03) 442 4000.
CELLAR PALATE
2004 Peregrine Pinot Noir $35 to $37
Fabulous red wine. A big, soft, fresh fruit bomb with enormous appeal and enough spicy aromas to make it taste fabulous with Moroccan and Indian food as well as suitable for drinking during the day this summer. Screwcap.
