Did you know that you CAN drink some red wines with fish. Try Pinot Noir, a young Cabarnet Sauvignon, a red Loire or some of the Red wines from Germany, Alsace or Austria.
The warmer climes in Coonawarra make for a rich, opulent style of Pinot Noir. Black cherry and plum are to the fore with a core of beautifully sweet fruit, vanilla and dried flowers. Silky texture and rounded in the mouth, an excellent food wine.

Producer: With great foresight, Ian Hollick purchased 22 hectares of prime ‘terra rossa’ land in 1974, and planting began a year later with Riesling and Cabernet Sauvignon. In 1984, Ian established the Hollick Winery and almost immediately began lifting trophies. The estate now measures over 100 hectares in size since the purchase of the Wilgha property.
Ian is fiercely independent, loves life and refuses to make wines that are overblown or dull, which is great news for wine-lovers like myself who prefer to drink a bottle with dinner rather than be served a glass of soup-like Cabernet.
