Producer: Mandrarossa
Wine: Viognier 2005
Region: Sicily Country: Italy
Grape: Viognier
Tasting notes: A beautifully pure Viognier with flavours of almond and white peach. The characteristic hints of blossom and elusive bitterness right on the finish make this an ideal wine with the lemongrass and galangal of Asian dishes.

Producer: Planeta
Wine: Planeta Burdese 2003
Region: Sicily Country: Italy
Grape: Cabernet Sauvignon
Tasting notes: A Bordeaux-esque blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc, the grapes were destemmed and crushed before macerating for 15-18 days on the skins. Fermented at 28 degrees C and then aged for 12 months in 225 litre Allier oak barrels (1/2 new) and a further 12 months in bottle before release.

Intense red berry aromas, leathery and mineral notes. Good concentration on the palate, dense tannins; long, warm finish and rich aromas.
