AFTERNOON DELIGHT
One of the newer kids on the wine block, at least here in Australia, is prosecco. Light,
fresh and more fruit-focused than many traditional sparklings, it’s as if this Italian-
originated wine style was made especially for the Australian way of life. For weekend
afternoons spent sipping in the sunshine, it’s difficult to go past the crisp apple and
pear flavours and lovely long, dry finish of the See Saw Prosecco 2016.

WINNER BY A NOSE
Sparkling wines are particularly popular at the track with fascinator-flaunting and suit-
sporting punters enjoying the Spring Racing Carnival. Putting your money on French
is usually a safe bet and the bright and racy Kriter Brut Blanc de Blancs looks and tastes
the part, delivering just the right amount of je ne sais quoi. This one is a firm favourite
with members of The Wine Society for good reason.

MARK THE MOMENT
Of course, all this doesn’t mean there is no place for Champagne. There is still nothing
quite like it for life’s biggest moments. Billecart-Salmon Brut Réserve ticks all the boxes
for wow factor but, more importantly, the wine inside the bottle more than lives up to
the hype. Elegance and finesse are hallmarks of this famous Champagne, justifying
its place at any special birthday or anniversary.
