Occasionally, cellars find themselves with surplus wine, even boutique wineries like the one where Dan sourced the lip smacking Sauvignon. Sometimes, if they’re short of cellar space, or they need up-front cash, they’ll sell their surplus at a knock down price, providing their name remains a secret – after all, they must protect their reputation. Deals like these rarely reach our shores as they’re snapped up by Aussie merchants – if not down the road, at least in a similar time zone. However, our Aussie Buyer is based in Australia and uses his wealth of contacts to swoop on deals like this before his UK competitors are even awake. Brimming with concentrated citrus and tropical fruit, this is a lavish apéritif and a fine partner for seafood.
