I nipped down into the wine cellar, opened a 2005 Saint Emilion and took a sip… then went back down into the wine cellar…

Hmmm - the real @jacobscreekwine is looking a bit dry and murky right now! 😲Better get some rain soon! 💦 . #postbydrew #winewankers @barosswines #barossawine #wine #wwbarossatrip #wwontour

GUESSING COMPETITION… and the answer is.... the Barossa Valley in South Australia. To be exact, the vines are owned by @yellandandpapps in Nuriootpa, which are directly across the road from @penfolds Barossa headquarters . Guess the #wine region using the picture and this description as clues. Answer revealed in 24 hours. “Mediterranean climate, [name of wine region] typically experiences cool, wet winters and warm, dry summers, which is ideal for grapegrowing.” . #postbydrew #winewankers

Are you a fan of @Henschke? Then you’ll probably be a fan of this #wine. The pedigree and provenance of the Shiraz vineyards at @huttonvalefarm is impressive. The ‘old’ block was planted in the 1960s with cuttings taken from the nearby Henschke Mount Edelstone vineyard. This is a superb Shiraz from the from 2013 vintage in Eden Valley - one of the driest, earliest and quickest vintages of living memory. . #postbydrew #winewankers @barossawines #barossawine #bvf2019 #BWA2019 #wine #wwbarossatrip #wwontour If you want to check out the Hutton Vale Farm offering in the Barossa Wine Auction; go to Barossawine.com

Nominations for favourite winery dog is now open! . Ha! This is Angus Wardlaw, winemaker for Barossa/Eden Valley label, @brothers_at_war . His love of the region, especially Eden Valley, is fully apparent in the super delicious wines they produce. Along with brother Sam, vigneron Chris Alderton and Matt Carter (some other guy) - these guys epitomise everything I love about the wine industry these days. FUN; they don’t take themselves too seriously - just their winemaking.! They focus on producing wines that do exceptionally well in this part of the world. Riesling, Grenache, Mataro, Cabernet Sauvignon, and of course Shiraz. . They’ve only been established for a few years, but they’ve already secured 5 star Winery status by (uncle) James Halliday and won the Trophy for the Best Small Producer at the 2016 Barossa Wine Show. My favourite wines were their Single Vineyard Eden Valley Syrah and The Grape Grower Riesling. . #postbydrew #winewankers @barossawines #barossawine #bvf2019 #BWA2019 #wine #wwbarossatrip #wwontour If you want to check out the Brothers at War offering in the Barossa Wine Auction; go to Barossawine.com

What is your #1 favourite Riesling in the world? Why do I ask? This #wine is angling to become Australia’s best Riesling. . @rieslingfreakofficial has fast become one of the most sort after wine labels for sommeliers and #Riesling geeks in the know. For the past ten years, John Hughes has released Rieslingfreak wines numbered from 2 to 10, but there has never been a #1 - that is until now.
