SPECIAL SELECTIONS<br />
$USD<br />
Public’s close relationship with the food and wines of the Antipodes has led us to<br />
assemble a uniquely focused wine list offering a vital and evolving selection of<br />
New Zealand and Australian wine – unparalleled in the United States.<br />
Here are some special varietal selections from two of our favourite producers<br />
Henschke Vineyards (Barossa Valley, Australia)<br />
The Henschke Vineyards which date back to the dawn of Australian viticulture (in the 1860s)<br />
are now owned and run by Stephen and Prue Henschke, the family’s sixth generation of wine<br />
makers. Prue farms biodynamically and provides fruit for Stephen’s winemaking that produce<br />
wonderful and elegant wines that provide a multi varietal window into South Australia.<br />
Pinot Noir, “Giles”, 2010 105<br />
Shiraz, “Mount Edelstone”, 2005 197<br />
Shiraz, “Hill of Grace” 1990 690<br />
1994 700<br />
2006 999<br />
The Shiner Concern<br />
When stripped of the perception of a winemaker’s pedigree and with no knowledge of the<br />
vineyard, do we enjoy a wine differently?<br />
AvroKO, Chef Brad Farmerie and Napa wine guru Adam Gordon are introducing two new wines – a<br />
Chardonnay and a Cabernet blend – produced by highly acclaimed Napa and Sonoma winemakers<br />
whose identities will never be revealed. Named after ‘a shiner’ (the term given to a labelless<br />
wine) the anonymity allows us to enjoy the flavors without regard to ratings, specific<br />
provenance or the winemakers’ pedigrees.<br />
The unnamed, masked shiner bottles are available as a limited edition.<br />
Inquire with our sommelier.<br />
