Powerball: Is It Possible To Write a Lotto Story That Doesn't Suck?
Full disclosure: when we set about writing this post, we were going to open with a snarky (read: stale) complaint about how the lottery subgenre of reportage just isn't creative enough.
In fact, our lede was going to be something like: "There must be a whole chapter on lotto coverage in "Journalism 101" textbooks, because it seems like the same handful of stories get reported over and over and over again." (Italics for even more snark, of course.)
But then we started to think: Lottos have been around a really fucking long time. In fact, they date back to Julius Caesar.
So, is it possible that these same narratives get recycled because there really might not be that much else to say in most circumstances?
Scrolling through recent Google news headlines on the topic, it seems like most lotto stories break down into the following categories: "Lotteries Are Impossible To Win," "Lotteries With Big Jackpots Draw Lots of People," "Lotteries Explained by Psychologists," "Lottery Winners Wind Up Miserable," "Lottery Winners Wind Up Happily Eccentric," Look At All The Stuff Lottery Winners Can Buy." There's also the kind we're guilty of indulging in: "Lottery Coverage Sucks."
While it's always possible to find that one dude who has a crazy lotto narrative -- maybe a guy was saved from a burning orphanage by a kindly wolf which also happened to have a winning ticket in his fangs -- it's also very likely such a story won't accompany every drawing.
Of course, there's the argument to be made that most stories, not just journalistic ones, follow the same structure. But that's a topic we can talk about for a very long time.
So I guess our point is this...no, you probably won't be surprised by most lotto stories' format. You're probably going to know how most of them end just by reading the beginning. However, that doesn't mean they're all bad, because the merit of an individual piece -- however predictable -- depends a lot upon its execution.

Hire Russian-speaking caregiver
She's 105, and has waited 10 years for care she needs, July 12

Re: She's 105, and has waited 10 years for care she needs, July 12
While I can appreciate the fact that the waiting list for placement in a long-care home is long, I believe that it is unrealistic for a family to require that placement be made in a facility where Russian is spoken. Given the range of language groups in the province, this is an inappropriate expectation of the Community Care Access Centre (CCAC). The family must assume some responsibility in meeting the linguistic needs of their loved one. If Faina Mileikovskaia were cared for in a long-term home, family could visit her on a daily basis without having the exhausting burden of 24-hour care. They could hire a Russian-speaking caregiver to provide supplementary care when they are not able to be present.

The Second Circuit revived an FLSA collective action filed by Michael Lola, an attorney licensed to practice law in California, who for fifteen months performed document review services for Skadden Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP ("Skadden") though a staffing agency while living and working in North Carolina. Lola alleged that these services did not constitute the "practice of law," and that he was therefore eligible for overtime under the Fair Labor Standards Act. Rejecting Lola's arguments, a Southern District of New York judge dismissed the complaint on a Rule 12(b)(6) motion on the grounds that Lola was exempt from overtime. However, the Second Circuit held that when accepting all of Lola's allegations as true for purposes of a motion to dismiss, his work might not constitute the practice of law.

"Unpredictable and Potentially Messy"?: NLRB Ruling Could Complicate Employers' Workplace Investigations
In its June 26 split decision in American Baptist Homes of the West d/b/a Piedmont Gardens and Service Employees International Union, United Healthcare Workers- West, 362 N.L.R.B. No. 139 (Case No. 32-CA-063475) ("Piedmont Gardens"), the National Labor Relations Board ("NLRB" or "Board") adopted a new standard for union access to employers' witness statements in discipline cases. In so doing, the NLRB overruled the 37-year-old standard articulated in Anheuser- Busch, 237 NLRB 982 (1978), that provided a blanket exemption for the disclosure of witness statements. Instead of a blanket rule, the majority followed the Supreme Court's 1979 decision in Detroit Edison v. NLRB, 440 U.S. 301 (1979), which requires a case-by-case balancing of the union's need for the witness statements against the employer's "legitimate and substantial confidentiality interests."
To Pay or Not To Pay: The Second Circuit Rules on Unpaid Interns
In addressing a matter of first impression, the Second Circuit Court of Appeals set out a new standard to determine when an unpaid intern is deemed an employee for purposes of the Fair Labor Standards Act ("FLSA") and thus entitled to compensation, including minimum wage and overtime, under the FLSA. Two appeals were argued in tandem on this issue with the Second Circuit issuing an Opinion on July 2, 2015 in Glatt v. Fox Searchlight Pictures, Inc., and a Summary Order in Wang v. Hearst Corp.
Show Me the Money: DOL Proposed Regulations Dramatically Expand Overtime Eligibility for White Collar Employees
After months of talk and speculation about new overtime regulations, on June 30, 2015, the United States Department of Labor ("DOL") issued its proposed rule and request for comments on its "white collar exemption" regulations. The so-called "white collar exemptions" – the executive, administrative and professional employees exemptions – were last revised in August 2004. Assuming the regulations are revised in accordance with the DOL's proposal, the DOL estimates that 4.6 million workers exempt under the current regulations would become entitled to overtime under the FLSA. In addition, an estimated 36,000 employees who were previously considered "highly compensated" employees under the FLSA would no longer satisfy that definition. Read More
In the Nick of Time: Governor Cuomo Approves Repeal of Annual Wage Notices
As employers in New York were gearing up for distribution of the annual wage notices in January 2015, Governor Andrew Cuomo finally signed the amendment to New York's Wage Theft Prevention Act that was passed by the legislature back in June and repeals the annual wage notification provision. While the other amendments to the Act will not take effect for 60 days, the Governor's December 29, 2014 signing statement and the New York Department of Labor make clear that employers are not required to distribute wage notices to their employees this January. The amendment, however, does not relieve employers of their obligation to provide all newly hired employees with wage notices at the time of hiring. In addition, although not specifically addressed in the amendment to the Act, it would be prudent for employers to distribute a revised wage notice when an employee receives a new position with a different compensation structure during his or her tenure with the employer.
Don't Forget the Veterans: Unique Provisions, High Stakes, and Liberal Judicial Interpretation Make USERRA Compliance a Battle
Because of the way the statute is drafted and how courts have interpreted it, employers of current members of the Armed Forces and veterans can sometimes find themselves with unexpected legal exposure under the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act of 1994 ("USERRA"). The statute imposes various obligations on employers with respect to members of the U.S. military returning to work and also prohibits discrimination against employees and potential employees based on their military service. As 2014 comes to a close, a couple of USERRA cases from this year remind employers of the intricacies of USERRA compliance.
Take Your Pick: E.D.N.Y. Decision Offers Guidance for Plaintiffs and Defendants Alike on How to Handle "Picking Off" Attempts in FLSA Collective Actions
"Sometimes surrender is the best option." That is how Judge Raymond J. Dearie of the Eastern District of New York begins his opinion in Anjum v. J.C. Penney Co., Inc., before denying J.C. Penney's motion to dismiss a putative Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) collective action based on the company's offer to pay the claims of four named plaintiffs with offers of judgment under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 68—a strategy often referred to as "picking off." Even though the court rejected J.C. Penney's picking off attempt in this case, the judge's opinion in Anjum recognizes the validity of this tactic and provides some practical lessons for defense counsel looking to successfully pick off an FLSA collective in the Second Circuit.
No One Likes A Bully: New California Law Mandates Anti-Bullying Training In The Workplace
On September 9, 2014, Governor Jerry Brown signed AB-2053, which mandates that certain California employers provide workforce bullying training in addition to already-required sexual harassment training and education. As a result, many California employers need to be prepared to expand their training programs to address abusive conduct beginning on January 1, 2015.
It Might be Mechanical, But It's Exempt: Court Dismisses Temp Document Reviewing Attorneys' Overtime Collective Action
A district court in New York dismissed the putative collective action filed by a contract attorney who performed document review for Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher and Flom LLP ("Skadden") for fifteen months. See Lola v. Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP. Under the Fair Labor Standards Act ("FLSA"), an employee is exempt from overtime as a professional employee if he or she is "the holder of a valid license . . . permitting the practice of law" and "who is actually engaged in the practice thereof." 29 C.F.R. § 541.3. The named plaintiff and proposed class representative, David Lola, was a licensed attorney, and, therefore, the dispositive question was whether he was practicing law such that he qualified for the exemption.
Check This [Box] Out: Ban the Box Legislation Continues to Gain Momentum
An increasing number of cities, counties and states have passed laws restricting employers from inquiring about a job applicant's criminal background, giving momentum to the "ban the box" movement. The term "ban the box" refers to questions on an employment application that ask a job applicant about past convictions. Proponents of the movement say that such legislation will help remove unfair employment barriers to job applicants with criminal histories.

Indianapolis - Apr 4, 2014 - The Society of Broadcast Engineers reaches its 50th year on Saturday, April 5. The first meeting of the SBE was held in Chicago, at the Conrad Hilton Hotel, during the NAB convention in 1964. Approximately 100 broadcast engineers attended the meeting.
John Battison was the driving force behind the creation of the SBE. He published an editorial in Broadcast Engineering magazine in June, 1961 that suggested a new organization be formed that would be devoted solely to the advancement of broadcast engineers. He later sent letters to almost 5,000 engineers in the U.S and Canada, inviting them to join the new organization.
The Society of Broadcast Engineers is the professional organization of television and radio engineers and those in related fields. SBE has more than 5,400 members in 114 chapters across the United States and in Hong Kong. There are also members in 29 other countries. Most chapters meet monthly and offer educational programs and an opportunity to network with other engineers. SBE offers the largest and most recognized certification program for broadcast engineers, operators and technicians, with close to 5,000 certifications currently active.

Up to 80 Afghan Civilians Killed in NATO Attack
The civilian death toll from a NATO bombing in Afghanistan Friday could run as high as 80. The attack came on a village in Helmand province where NATO says it was ambushed by Taliban fighters. Witnesses reported the bombing lasted up to three hours, with dozens of women and children among the dead. NATO has faced growing criticism for a series of attacks that have killed Afghan civilians. Afghan President Hamid Karzai has criticized the U.S.-led coalition for "use of extreme force" and viewing Afghan lives as "cheap." More than 200 Afghan civilians were killed in NATO attacks last month. Earlier today Afghanistan's Independent Human Rights Commission said it now believes more Afghan civilians have been killed in NATO attacks than by the Taliban so far this year.
U.S. Accused of Killing 8 Civilians in Sadr City Raid
Meanwhile in Iraq, U.S. forces are being accused of blindly firing on innocents in an attack on Sadr City. Local hospital officials say eight civilians were killed in their homes. Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki renewed his call for the U.S. military to seek his approval before carrying out similar raids.
2 U.S. Troops Charged in Baghdad Killings
In other Iraq news, two U.S. soldiers have been charged in the separate killings of three Iraqis near Baghdad. Both of the accused suspects are charged with premeditated murder and then planting a weapon to cover up the alleged crime.
U.N. Disbands Iraqi Weapons Inspections Unit
In other Iraq news, the search for Saddam Hussein's weapons of mass destruction has officially come to an end. The United Nations has disbanded its weapons inspection unit in Iraq. The U.N. Monitoring, Verification and Inspection Commission, UNMOVIC, was a key factor in the lead-up to the Iraq War. The inspectors were effectively sidelined and forced to leave when a U.S. attack seemed inevitable. No weapons have been found. U.S. Ambassador Zalmay Khalilzad addressed the White House dismissal of the inspectors in the rush to war.
U.S. Ambassador to U.N. Zalmay Khalilzad: "We've all learned lessons in hindsight. One would have hoped to have had in both cases more precise information. We have to recognize this took place in the context of post-9/11, where concerns were heightened about the potential of weapons of mass destruction falling into the hands of terrorists."
Supreme Court to Hear Gitmo Challenge
The Supreme Court has decided to consider whether prisoners at Guantanamo Bay have the right to challenge their imprisonment. The decision reverses the court's refusal in April to hear an appeal from detainees at Guantanamo challenging the Military Commissions Act of 2006. The law stripped detainees of the right to habeas corpus. Court staffers say the decision marks the first time in 60 years justices have agreed to hear an appeal they initially rejected. Michael Ratner of the Center for Constitutional Rights said: "The Supreme Court will now seek for the third time to resolve the fate of these detainees … who have languished without any meaningful way to challenge their detention for more than five years. The processes the government put in place are a sham — they allow the use of evidence obtained through torture and no real review of the facts."
Leahy Vows to Seek Contempt Citation, Court Ruling over Subpoena Refusals
Senate Judiciary Committee Chair Patrick Leahy has announced he's prepared to go to court and seek a congressional contempt vote if the Bush administration resists subpoenas for information on the firing of nine U.S. attorneys. The White House announced last week President Bush will invoke executive privilege to deny access to documents from former presidential counsel Harriet Miers and former political director Sara Taylor. Leahy responded in an interview on the Sunday talk show Meet the Press.
Sen. Patrick Leahy: "If they don't cooperate, yes, I'd go that far. I mean, this is very important to the American people."
5 Arrested in U.K. Bombing Plot
In Britain, five people were arrested Sunday in an ongoing investigation into a failed car-bombing attempt in London and another in Scotland. On Friday, police found two Mercedes containing gasoline, gas cylinders and nails parked near the other in London. One day later, two people were arrested after a car crashed into the main terminal at Glasgow airport. Witness Jim Manson described the attack.
Jim Manson: "It started out with some flames coming up from the front of the car, but then it was almost as if there was kind of a mini explosion, as if there'd be a petrol canister or something, and the flames were shooting right up to the top of the terminal building, which was quite dramatic. And then the terminal building seemed to catch fire. The front of the terminal building seemed to catch fire, and there was smoke and flames obviously going inside and outside, as well. Everyone just ran. I mean, they were absolutely terrified, as you can imagine."
Meanwhile, British Prime Minister Gordon Brown said the attacks indicate links to al-Qaeda and announced increased security measures at airports.
British PM Gordon Brown: "We will have to be constantly vigilant. We will have to be alert at all times. And I think the message that's going to come out from Britain and from the British people is that as one, we will not yield, we will not be intimidated, and we will not allow anyone to undermine our British way of life."
Lieberman: U.K. Incident Should Drop Spy Opposition
Meanwhile here in the United States, Senator Joe Lieberman of Connecticut said the bombing plots should encourage lawmakers to drop opposition to the Bush administration's domestic spying on U.S. citizens. Speaking on ABC's This Week, Lieberman said: "I hope these terrorist attacks in London wake us up here in America to stop the petty partisan fighting going on about … electronic surveillance."
Castro: CIA Admissions Mask Ongoing Activities
In Cuba, President Fidel Castro has weighed in for the first time on the CIA's publication of its so-called "family jewels" last week. A trove of unearthed documents showed the CIA planned spy operations and attempts on Castro's life, including a plot hatched with two wanted mobsters. In an editorial called "Killing Machine," Castro writes: "Everything described in the documents is still being done, only in a more brutal manner around the entire planet, including an increasing number of illegal actions in the very United States." Cuba's National Assembly also reacted to the disclosures with a statement at its opening bi-annual session.
Cuban National Assembly President Ricardo Alarcon: "The CIA documents reveal part of the attempts to assassinate our colleague Fidel Castro and to bring pain to our country. The cynical support given to Posada and the shameful punishment to our five anti-terrorist fighters is irrefutable evidence that those now recognized vile purposes are not a thing of the past and that they continue to be the current policies of the actual U.S. government."
Castro's chair was left symbolically empty as he continues to recover from intestinal surgery.
Israel Transfers Fraction of Owed Palestinian Funds
In Israel and the Occupied Territories, Israel has begun transferring some of the hundreds of millions of dollars in Palestinian tax money it's frozen for more than a year. The initial sum of $120 million is just a fraction of the total amount Palestinians are owed. The money will go to the government of Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas in the West Bank, with none to Hamas-controlled Gaza. Hamas says Israel is trying to intensify the Palestinian divide by increasing Gaza's isolation. Meanwhile, aid convoys into Gaza continue to move at a trickle pace.
U.N. Humanitarian Coordinator John Ging: "There never was a greater need for us, and yet it was never more difficult to deliver the assistance. But that is our challenge, and we will strive to succeed in that challenge. And I hope that all others, in their respective challenges, the political challenge and so on and so forth, that they too succeed to find solutions that will take the situation forward to a better future."
1,000 Protest Bush-Putin Meeting in Maine
And Russian President Vladimir Putin is in the United States for informal meetings with President Bush. The two are meeting at the Bush family compound in Kennebunkport, Maine. As Putin arrived, more than 1,000 people demonstrated in a nearby town against the war in Iraq and ongoing Russian policy in Chechnya.

Rated 93 by Robert Parker
Altesino's 2010 Brunello di Montalcino stands proud among its peers. No other wine I tasted among the new releases in Montalcino achieves this unique level of aromatic finesse and distinction. The bouquet is almost purely floral in character with a strong emphasis on pressed rose petal, dried violets and potpourri. The fruit tones are less emphatic and include bright cherry and red currant. In the mouth, the wine's compressed texture is accented by fennel seed and licorice. the 2009 vintage had more power and heat, but this version shows elegant restraint.

Additional Information on Altesino Brunello Di Montalcino 2010
Vintage: 2010
2010 saw extremely high quality viticulture in many parts of the world, with an exceptionally long and hot summer providing huge benefits for wineries across many countries, especially in the southern hemisphere. The northern hemisphere and Europe saw something of a cooler summer and flowering period, but this was by no means as disastrous as it could have been. France, especially, had a fantastic year in 2010, with the world renowned Burgundy region proclaiming that their white wines of this year are ones to look out for, and despite yields being relatively small across much of the country, the quality was exceptionally high. Spain, too, received some cooler weather, but Rioja and the rest of central Spain are hailing 2010 as a very good year indeed, again as a result of smaller, finer yields. California also received similar climatic conditions, but again, wineries are highly positive about the overall effect this had on their produce, as the slightly challenging conditions resulted in smaller yields of much elegance and distinction. 2010 was really Australia's year, and in South Australia and across the Mornington Peninsula, Chardonnay vines produced good yields with a lower sugar level than in previous years. As such, the majority of South Australian white wines from 2010 are superb, and packed full of character. Shiraz also had a great year, and most Australian wineries have been proclaiming 2010 one of the great vintages. Both the Argentinian and Chilean wine industries benefited from some ideal climatic conditions this year, and are reportedly ecstatically pleased with the fact that their 2010 wines ended up with lower alcohol levels, and were beautifully balanced wines packed full of flavor.
Varietal: Sangiovese
Sangiovese grapes have been grown in their native Italy and several other countries for a very long time now, with many experts claiming that they were even enjoyed by the ancient Etruscan civilization, long before the spread of the Roman Empire which helped raise the profile of this dark colored and flavorful varietal. It isn't difficult to understand their enduring appeal – the Sangiovese grape varietal delivers wines which are the epitome of finery, soaking up delicate and complex oak and vanilla flavors from the barrels they are aged in, or leaving light, refreshing strawberry notes on the tongue when drank young. Whilst many traditional wineries prefer to use these acidic grapes for single variety wines, many have experimented with blending them with other fine varietals in order to balance out their combination of high acidity and light body. The results have often been truly special, and Sangiovese continues to impress today as much as it did centuries ago.
Region: Tuscany
Tuscany has been producing fine wines for almost three thousand years, and as such is widely recognized as being one of the key Old World wine regions which have shaped the way we understand and enjoy quality wines throughout history. Interestingly, the region is typified by a unique soil type which is not particularly good for growing grapevines, but in Tuscany, the emphasis has always been on quality over quantity, and low yields with high levels of flavor and intensity are preferred, and have become a feature of the region's wine industry. The main grape varietals grown in Tuscany are Sangiovese for the distinctive, flavorful and complex red wines, and Vernaccia for the exquisite dry white wines, although the last couple of decades have seen more varietals grown and an increasing trend towards 'Bordeaux style' wines.
Country: Italy
For several decades in the mid to late twentieth century, Italy's reputation for quality wines took a fairly serious blow. This was brought about partly due to lack of regulation in certain regions, and too much regulation in others. This led to several wineries in the beautiful and highly fertile region of Tuscany making the bold move to work outside of the law, which they saw as responsible for the drop in quality in Tuscan wines. They believed that they had the expertise and the generations of experience necessary with which to make truly excellent, world class wines, and set about doing just that. These 'Super Tuscans', as they came to be known, quickly inspired the rest of Italy to improve their produce, and now, Italian wine producers in the twenty-first century are widely recognised to be amongst the best in the world. Regulation and law began to change, and wine drinkers across the globe woke up to the outstanding wines coming out of Italy, which are continuing to improve and impress to this day.

All of Borat, All of Time
Dammit, with all the Borat hoopla, I can't get his broken English out of my head.
For the last two weeks, I've been "laughing on" the comedic stylings of my coworkers John and Rich. I can't stop excitedly refering to the restroom as a "lav-a-torrrry." And I've developed a new line in trying to woo my wife:
"So, shall we make the sexy time now?"
(It doesn't work, btw.)
I attended the Katy/Cinco Ranch game last weekend for an upcoming Been There, Done That column. And seeing Katy's head football coach Gary Joseph reminded that there really are six degrees of Borat. So here's our favorite Kazakh journo with Coach Joseph, from a post our old pal Ray Hafner did back in August. Note how the mens can throw. -- Steven Devadanam

Meir Panim Gives the Gift of Camp to Hundreds of Impoverished Children.
The estate of convicted Nazi war criminal John Demjanjuk again has asked an appeals court to help posthumously restore his U.S. citizenship.
In a filing Monday, Demjanjuk's estate asked the full 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Cincinnati to take up the case. In June, a three-judge panel of the court ruled that Demjanjuk's U.S. citizenship cannot be posthumously restored and that his death made the case moot.
Demjanjuk, a former Ohio autoworker, died in southern Germany on March 17 at the age of 91.
The defense said the American government withheld potentially helpful material and said that the full court must take up the matter.
The defense claimed that U.S. District Judge Dan Polster in Cleveland violated basic fairness by ruling against Demjanjuk's citizenship appeal without holding a hearing on a 1985 secret FBI report uncovered by The Associated Press. The document indicates that the FBI believed a Nazi ID card purportedly showing that Demjanjuk served as a death camp guard was a Soviet-made fake.
"Fraud is fraud. It does not die" with the death of parties involved, the defense said in its latest filing, reported The Associated Press.
The government argued that the earlier defense filings contained no new information in the matter.
"Over three decades, we have repeatedly rejected Demjanjuk's challenges to the authenticity of the Trawniki card and fraud on the court," the court said last June.
Restoration of his citizenship would have enabled his widow to seek Social Security benefits.
A Munich court convicted Demjanjuk last year on 28,060 counts of being an accessory to murder at the Sobibor death camp in occupied Poland. Demjanjuk, who maintained that he had been mistaken for someone else, died while his conviction was under appeal.

2013 Chablis 1er Cru Les Lys, Defaix(6x75cl)
This premier cru is characterized by its aromatic richness, and its fineness on the mouth. Fruity and rich.
2014 Sauvignon Blanc, Welmoed(6x75cl)
A text-book Sauvignon with lemongrass, gooseberries and hints of tropical fruits. Intense on the palate and refreshing finish.
2012 Nuits-St-Georges Blanc 1er Cr En La Perrière Noblot, Michelot(6x75cl)
Beautiful gold colour; subtle, expressive nose with notes of toast and ripe lemons; complex palate, racy acidity, but full, balanced and beautiful long finish.
2013 Sancerre Cuvée Insolite, Domaine Franck Millet(6x75cl)
Pronounced, expressive nose of green fruits, fresh cut grass and minerals. The palate is clean and ultra crisp; medium bodied and packed with greengage, lime and gooseberry fruit. The finish is clean, showing a real sense of place through its minerality.
2013 Bacchus, Shawsgate(6x75cl)
An attractive young wine of a delicate gold colour with a touch of spritz. The bouquet brims with light elderflower, citrus and honeyed tropical fruits and is supported with a well balanced and satisfying middle palate. The gentle acidity and good fruit flavours, particularly grapefruit, help to provide a sustained length and finish.
2011 Puligny Montrachet 1er Cru Les Folatières, Domaine Alain Chavy(6x75cl)
Fresh, floral, lemony white burgundy with lots of new oak on the finish.
2014 Coralinga Sauvignon Blanc, Henschke(6x75cl)
Pale green-gold in colour. The vibrant nose shows lifted lemon blossom, gooseberry, melon and grassy aromas. The palate is delicate yet rich with layers of flavours, good balance, and finishing crisp and long.
2013 Grecanico, Mandrarossa(6x75cl)
Grecanico is a native Sicilian grape which produces a complex, aromatically defined white wine with lively citrusy fruit character on the nose and the palate, and well balanced, fresh acidity on the finish.
2009 The Last Ditch Viognier, d'Arenberg(6x75cl)
The nose is a heady mix of exotic aromas. White peach and nectarine are infused with candied ginger, spice and honey blossoms.
The palate also displays white stone fruits and apricots mixed with florals, spices and savoury notes.
Whilst typically rich and luscious, the mouthfeel is balanced out by a lovely, flowery, nutty tannin that adds both length and focus.
2012 The Broken Fishplate Sauvignon Blanc, Hillbillies, d'Arenberg(6x75cl)
Classic Adelaide Hills Sauvignon Blanc! The nose is intensely perfumed, with lychee, gooseberry, grassy and rosehip notes all contributing.
The flavour profile is similar with an abundance of tropical fruits, lychees and passionfruit, swirling through the palate, highlighted by pretty white flowers and grassy edges.
The wine is fine and long, thanks to the vibrant natural acidity, and finishes full of minerals.
