Cult & Boutique Wines import a number of wines I’d not previously tasted, many of which, given their name, you’ll not be surprised to hear have received rave reviews in The Wine Advocate and Wine Spectator. Last month’s Australia Trade Tasting provided the opportunity to suss them out.
With few exceptions, they’re big, bold wines with the concentration to mop up lashings of American oak. (Photo credit: Kay Brothers). Not necessarily my favourite style, but the line up included some great, unmistakably Aussie wines from Kay Brothers, Gibson, Kaesler, Hentley Farm, Shirvington and Wild Duck Creek.
You’ll find my pick of the bunch on my Australia Regional Report page here.
