Fat Bastard
The name comes from an experimental batch that was left on its lees longer than planned and turned out rich and full, earning a 'fat' description. Chardonnay is the signature wine: round, with ripe fruit and a creamy finish. Pinot Noir is light and fruity, good with salmon or roast chicken. Cabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz are the fuller reds for burgers and steak, and Sauvignon Blanc is crisp and citrusy.
