Bardwell Park Cellars

On tasting at Bardwell Park Cellars this afternoon and all weekend! Domaine St Remy Vieilles Vignes 2019 Alsacian Riesling, refined and aromatic and certainly dry; Tindaro Monferrato a Piedmontese wine with firm tannin spine and aromatic notes of plum, nutmeg, clove, and guava- ideal for lasagne; then the most beautiful Cahors Malbec Chateau de Mercues 2014 just ready for steak with bearnaise sauce, potatoes , and green beans. See you soon!

Many of our valued customers (that means all of you!) are currently taking advantage of our Renovation Stocktake sale- bring cash and choose one dozen or more wines (except bubbles and under $15 wines)- and save twenty percent on the total price! What a wonderful way to have some wine on hand for the changing seasons and temperatures.

One more thing- when you come to the shop, you will see that we have reduced the price of many spirits contrary to the rise in prices suggested by the CPI. Just another way we are keeping life interesting!

Happy Father's Day out there to all you dads, granddads, uncles, godfathers and assorted patriarchs. We honour you today. It's been busy all week at Bardwell Park Cellars so I think many of you have received a nice bottle of something as part of today's festival. In case you have left it to the eleventh hour to honour someone in your family, we have a fine and extensive selection of malt whiskies, bourbons, Tasmanian Lark whisky, other spirits, and fine wines at all prices. Beers too! You can pop in today until 7pm and select something worthy of your special fellow.

I have one VIP Pass (now booked out) to Sydney Good Food and Wine Show for this coming Friday 24th June- you can either buy it directly from me at cost price $140 or else receive it free if you buy $400 worth of wine from Bardwell Park Cellars before 9pm on Thursday. That's a good deal! 0491 71 25 56

Quiet Sunday? Come over to Bardwell Park Cellars and discuss your wine purchases for winter. With prices of lettuce going sky high , make sure you get your reds and whites as well as your greens! Good wine can be more affordable than you think. Currently we have the Mystery Box, the Mystery Deluxe Box, the Stars, and the Platinum Jubilee Box, Ask us for details. Shop offline, talk to people who know wine without noise, distraction, or fuss. We look forward to seeing you.

We are tasting four wines today and tomorrow for the Queen's Platinum Jubilee Birthday. Come and try something good for this memorable Long Weekend; eat, drink, and be merry under blue winter skies in our safe and happy realm! We are open today Friday, Saturday 11am to 9pm, Sunday and Monday 11am to 7pm.

Mother, I cannot talk with you now and know exactly what you would say to me. But I see you in a thousand lovely things each day, the things you admired and praised when you walked past them with a smile on your lips. The roses, lavender, hibisci, the sounds of the birds in the trees. Your favourite scents, particularly Jean Patou and Chanel Number Five. I can't forget all the support and care you gave me, especially when I was immature and discouraged about a heap of things that all seem trivial today.

But there is one thing in particular I know you would always appreciate on Mother's Day, as on many days of the year. A glass of French wine, particularly Bordeaux or Burgundy. You loved its colour, its fragrance, its balance, and above all its velvet smoothness. To those of you whose mothers are still with you, choose a wine of high quality to open tomorrow , hand the glass to your mother, and pray that you will have many occasions on which to sip such a wine with the greatest lady in your life. Happy Mother's Day!

We wish all our Orthodox customers a very Blessed Easter to come this weekend. We are open throughout: Today Friday and tomorrow Saturday 11am to 8pm, Sunday Orthodox Easter Day 11am to 7pm

Is there a chance that we shall have a normal autumn? You never know! After all the rain that has caused mayhem across the East Coast of Australia, and damaged vines just on harvest, we must hope that as much can be salvaged as possible. No year is ever perfect, no agricultural conditions without disappointment. But the vintages are never identical, and it is part of the fun to taste many different wines from different years, and think respectfully of all the hard work that was necessary to sn**ch the grapes at the right time and bring them into the winery to make beautiful wine. The cooler days we are now experiencing, bring us the chance to open some reds and eat some comfort food for cooler weather; pies, casseroles, grilled meats, risotto , fondue. Light to medium fruity reds with character and harmony- pinot noir, gamay, grenache, GSM blends, Chianti are all good at the moment. We pay tribute to all the "Vignerons Independents" the small boutique wineries of Europe and Australia, who bring us so much variety and quality even when they are exhausted and spent from superhuman labour.
We thank you and salute you!

Christmas Eve at Bardwell Park Cellars! We are open 9am to 9pm for your gift selection. See you today. We close for Christmas Day and reopen 11am for Boxing Day. Merry Christmas, see you soon!

This is the time of year for an extraordinary whisky, for giving and for putting in your own cabinet...the Octomore series by Bruichladdich, where every bottle becomes a collectable classic
Peated but brought to balanced perfection by master craftsmen from the barley grower to the peatsmoker to the whisky blender back on Islay..and the result is harmonious bliss in a distinguished barrelled bottle. The 12.1 and 12.3 are with us now, and we still have a rare jewel collection from 7.3 to the 11
3 any of which are sought throughout the nation
Come and see us today if you are planning to start or increase your rare whisky collection, or give the unrivalled gift at Christmas.

It's almost December; and we are expecting that this cool weather and flooding which brings mixed benefits to the land in Australia, will go its way soon to bring some fine weather, but in December in Alsace the good friends of the vineyards band together to pick the last of the shrivelled grapes of the year's crop to make the dessert wines known as grains nobles or pourriture noble .

A few of these bottles, together with the less intense but delectable table wines, are on our list for you to select as Christmas gifts. We do hope you will call in to see us soon and discuss your requirements for the Great Feast of the Nativity, which will lift our hearts and make us happy no matter what has occurred thus year.

We shall be open everyrday now except Christmas Day itself starting at 11am and closing at 9pm except Sundays which finish at 7pm. I can say we have the best selection that has ever been in store, of beers, wines, and spirits expectially whisky and gin and liqueurs.

See you soon!

With Autumn now here, and Lent of course, we may be browsing the recipe books to see what we should be eating. More vegetables, fish, and tofu and nuts may be gathering in your kitchen and pantry.

To keep you company, no matter what your state of mind or spiritual leanings, we have harnessed the very successful mystery dozen idea of 2020 and created an Autumn Dozen. Each wine in the Dozen has a food pairing suggestion with it. $240 worth of wine (6 R+ 6W; or 5 R+ 1 Rose +6W ; or all R or all W) for $199 cash pick up at the shop. Quality wines throughout. You may wish to order a repeat dozen for Easter weekend itself!

Among the selections , the Viognier from the Southern Tablelands near Goulburn/Marulan, and the Cardinalices from the Cotes du Rhone, and the Fleur d'Eleonore from Caves de Monsegur, Bordeaux region. While travel to many of the world's vineyards may seem an impossible dream at the moment, we can sip these beauties and look forward to the resumption of exploration!
