CASELLA WINE YELLOW TAIL

Casella is a strong family business, with second-and third-generation family members all playing a part in this extraordinary success story.From humble beginnings, the Casella family has become Australia's greatest wine exporter.

Grapes from Australia’s warm and cool-climate wine regions are blended for complexity and flavor to produce Yellow Tail The Reserve which is mainly exported overseas from Australia and is very hard to get.

Casella Wines is offering 2 or more bottles from their finely selected Reserve Collection to raffle and giveaway at all our monthly gatherings starting from May 2011. The PPR of one bottle is $60.00. Both Reserve and non-Reserve wines can be purchased for a special price much below RRP direct from our generous sponsor. 

Here are the wines that Casella offers to Bohemian Rhapsody Club for our monthly raffles (total value of this offer is $1,440+ in giveaways per year):

THE RESERVE PINOT GRIGIO
Delightfully fresh, zesty and elegant. This wine has lifted aromas of citrus fruits with delicate notes of green apples, pears and limes. The palate displays flavours of pineapple with subtle floral characters and fresh acidity to create a lingering, crisp finish.
THE RESERVE CHARDONNAY
A complex array of fragrant fruit aromas and attractive vanillin oak scents offer a great introduction to [yellow tail] Reserve Chardonnay. The palate is fresh and vibrant with melon, peach and tropical fruit flavours balanced with fine citrus acid and oak, which add to the overall complexity.
THE RESERVE MERLOT
The rich fruity nose of the blackberry combines with dark chocolate aromas with underlying nuances of sweet oak. The palate boasts layers of black cherry, vanilla and mocha which come together to produce a soft, velvety mouth feel. This seamless and well structured wine has good texture and well balanced tannins finishing with length and a touch of spice.
THE RESERVE SHIRAZ
Vibrant, ripe and generous – a drop that is big on flavour and deep in colour with an intense aroma. It has delicious concentrated cherry and blackberry flavours with hints of classic cracked pepper spice. These flavours are complimented by vanilla softness and well structured tannins.
THE RESERVE CABERNET SAUVIGNON
yellow tail] Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon embodies the essence of all great Australian reds. Aromas of ripe, black cherries, mint and oak reward the senses while velvety smooth tannins provide excellent structure and length to this complex, elegant wine.

Yellow Tail wines are fresh, flavoursome, approachable and uplifting. Sip, share, enjoy!

MINIMALISTIC - Wice needs nothing more that a freezer. No electricity, energy-efficient operation, non-toxic materials and recyclable plastic make this top-design glacette environment-friendly at the same time.
UNIVERSAL - Wice is ideal for cooling any type of bottle.

COLORFUL - what ever your color choice is you will be sure to have a concentration of perfect Italian style at home.

VARIABLE - satin steel or plastic, opaque or transparent: you can change its appearance. And what about the sparking gold party-dress version or transparent plastic for dinners on the beach? It is up to you.

DRYNESS - it enhances bottles without hiding the label. With Wice you can always see what you are drinking…
ECO - it is entirely made of non-toxic materials and recyclable plastic.

REUSABLE - how may times can you use Wice? Its simple principle means that it can be reused virtually for ever.
