Dear Wine and Food Lover,
ALL SOLD OUT 22 June, ADD ONE More Night 23 June, 2010 Bella Ridge Estate Japanese Cuisine Winemaker Dinner, Still Available Australian Cuisine Winemaker Dinner 24 June, 2010
Thank you for your support of this fourth tour in our Discoveries Winemaker Tour 2010 programme series. We have now SOLD OUT all the tickets for the Tuesday 22 June, 2010 dinner Kyoho at Kiku Japanese Cuisine Winemaker Dinner. Thus, we now add one ADDITIONAL night of Wednesday 23 June, 2010 with the Thursday 24 June, 2010 Savoury Australian Cuisine, Savoury Australian Wines Winemaker Dinner staying unchanged.
Thus, we now invite you again to join us in the fourth tour of our new series of ¡¥Discoveries Winemaker Tour 2010¡¦, a joint programme by m.a.x. concepts, wine merchant Cottage Vineyards (International) and local wine instructor, Damon Yuen, where each month, a visiting winemaker and Damon, will lead you to discover some of the world¡¦s most exciting and unusual wines paired to a range of exquisite cuisine in various m.a.x. concepts outlets.
Our fourth tour, entitled, ¡§Old World Winemaking and Hands-on Innovation at Bella Ridge Estate Winery¡¨ 22-24 June, 2010, and led by winemaker Alon Arbel of boutique Swan Valley, Western Australia winery Bella Ridege Estate Winery will bring you to experience the more mellow, savoury side of Australian wine.
Alon Arbel and his wife, Jodi strongly embrace the motto that great wines begin in the vineyard. Thus, attributing the success of their wines to the winery¡¦s terroir and the care they place in the vineyard, the couple practice Old World artisanship techniques, relying on natural yeasts and harvesting all the grapes by hand to bring out the pure varietal character of the grapes and the vineyard¡¦s blessed teroir. Located in the Swan Valley in western Australia, which experiences a warm Mediterranean climate with very long sunshine hours and very dry weather during ripening and harvest, the location lends itself favourably to quality grapes and hence premium wines.
So in Alon¡¦s vineyards, you can find Semillon, Chenin Blanc and Shiraz planted in the 1960s by the original owners. Also, on the property, strangely enough are 1.5 acres of Kyoho grapes (imported from Japan) planted by the previous owners, a Japanese company in the 1980s. At the end of the 2004 vintage, Alon made a white wine out of these Kyoho grapes, an intriguing wine now reaching cult-like status able to match with fruit platters, foie gras and and sushi to light spongy Japanese style cheesecake!
The Kyoho 2006 will be one of the highlights of this tour, together with Bella Ridge Estate¡¦s savoury Chenin Blanc, Cabernet Shiraz, Shiraz, and GSM blend. All wines from the winery¡¦s inaugural vintage, 2004, were reviewed by Australia¡¦s top wine writers ¡V James Halliday, Huon Hooke and Peter Forrestal. Ray Jordan even proclaimed the winery Most Promising winery in Western Australia (2008 Wine Guide)!
