I had tried a few Verdelho, this is the
best so far. The fihishing is sooo fresh! Fells like wind blowing in my mounth.
Idea summer companion with flavors of
ripe, gooseberry and rock melon tantalize the taste buds. Well match with
seafood.
Another winner in along lineage of
tremendous vintage releases. Clearly one of the most aromatic Verdelho's ever
made, almost Riesling -like. A knockout top-end premium white and the best from
Sandalford in the last two decades. Beautiful and fresh now but is known to be
a great cellaring wine not unlike Hunter Semillons. Serve well chilled.
"RED 5 STAR WINERY - Sandalford is one of Australia's
oldest and privately owned wineries. In 1970 it moved beyond its original Swan
Valley base, purchasing a substantial property in Margaret River that is now
the main source of its premium grapes. With most of the vines now 40 years old,
and with the highly experienced and former Flying Winemaker Paul Boulden in
charge, it is no surprise that the quality of the wines is consistently
excellent." Australia's leading wine critic, James Halliday, awards Sandalford
Wines the very prestigious RED 5 star rating in the Australian Wine Companion
2012 Edition, page 579, released 27th July 2011.
"Sandalford has well and truly leapt into the
big league of premium producers in WA, having now completely transformed itself
to a Margaret River wine operation. The Estate Reserve and Margaret River Range
are entirely from Margaret River. The team of owner Peter Prendiville and
winemaker Paul Boulden have taken the wines in an exciting new direction."
Ray Jordan's 2011 WA Wine Guide, published October 2010, page 151
"RED 5 STAR WINERY - Sandalford is an
outstanding winery regularly producing wines of exemplary quality and
typicity." Australia's most pre-eminent wine critic, James Halliday,
awards Sandalford Wines the very coveted RED 5 star rating in the Australian
Wine Companion 2011 Edition released 28th July 2010.
"Producer of the Year, and Winemaker of the
Year: Sandalford Wines. Since taking over Sandalford a few years ago Paul
Boulden has consistently produced outstanding wines, based primarily on one of
the oldest Margaret River vineyards. The combination of winemaker Paul Boulden
and owner Peter Prendiville has proved an awesome double act resulting in
outstanding wines across the board." Leading West Australian Wine Critic
Ray Jordan, at the launch of Ray Jordan's 2010 WA Wine Guide, 30 November 2009.
