Massolino Moscato D’Asti 2022 (375ml)
$30.00Massolino’s Moscato has long been a benchmark example of the style, but it’s only produced in tiny quantities. Drawn from hand-harvested grapes, a good portion of the vines are rooted in the prime calcareous soils of Serralunga. Massolino’s Moscato is more savoury and complex than the more typical examples. As always, this is bursting with […]

Dalrymple Pinot Noir 2022
$42.00Out of Stock
No one loses with this in the glass. What an engaging and super tasty Pinot Noir we have here from Dalrymple. A blend of fruit from Pipers River, Coal River and Ouse, this is a wonderfully varietal wine.

Castle Rock A&W Reserve Riesling 2021
$38.00Out of Stock
Castle Rock is a bastion of high quality, great value Riesling and it’s 2021 A&W Reserve is wonderful. This has far more weight than the estate wine, with a rounder, more ample framework. The fruit spectrum’s different too, with tropical notes such as grapefruit, guava, kiwi fruit and pineapple. Extremely bright fruit and very complex, […]

Place of Changing Winds Annus Horribilis Pinot Noir 2020
$95.00Out of Stock
A remarkable wine, from an impossible vintage. The fruit is sourced from all of the estate vineyards, only 100 cases produced perhaps the best demonstration of just how punishing a vintage it was. Quite closed initially, but with patience, aromatically soaring. Intense sweet and tangy blue red and black fruits, cut flowers, mace, clove, cinnamon […]

Walsh & Sons Lola 2021
$28.00One of the best value wine’s we have tasted in a very long time. A blend of Syrah, Cabernet and Grenache, the blend might seem unlikely, but it works tremendously. Plenty to smell here; dried flowers, blackcurrant, plum, raspberry and spice. Ample palate, that coats the mouth in flavour, but without any heaviness or astringency. […]

Olifantsberg Lark Chenin Blanc 2019
$38.00Layered and detailed, mouth filling, yet light on its feet. Chenin Blanc can be many things and most winemakers opt for one style or another, but the Lark from Olifantsberg conjures up a multifaceted expression. Deeper and darker fruited aromatics than the old vine chenin, with white peach, apricot, nectarine, lime, dried herbs and whiffs […]

Granite Hills Riesling 2022
$30.00If you could open a wine that typifies what’s best about Australian Riesling, this would be it. Add to this the caveat of best value, and this would be it again. Expressive, intense and powerful, with flavours of lemon, lime, zest, grapefruit and minerals. Such an attack of flavour and presence, acidity in lockstep. Ripeness […]

Cantina Marangona Lugana 2021
$35.00The first Turbiana I have tasted, wishing I had encountered the varietal years ago. Spring Jasmine, green apple, white peach, nectarine and lemon zest. Subtle textural grip and hints of cream embellish an otherwise linear, mineral palate. Super fresh, pitched perfectly, like a brilliant Soave in that it has the perfect fruit, acidity and flesh […]

A Rodda Cuvee de Chais 2021
$40.00A blend of 60/22/9/9% cabernet sauvignon/merlot/cabernet franc/petit verdot. Several different parcels of grape varieties, but all wines were pressed to French oak barriques (36% new) for 15 months. While Italian grapes are making headway in Beechworth, this wine reminds you of the classic beauty to be found in the region’s French grapes. The fineness and […]

Fighting Gully Road Chardonnay 2022
$50.00Quite different from the 2021 vintage, being more open and less structured. Very complex, with notes cashew, rockmelon, white peach, spring jasmine, butter white cherry and preserved mango. Succulent and luscious, the palate displays some darker yellow fruit, the acidity tightening the palate and applying a little more sinew and structure. A chardonnay lover’s chardonnay. […]

Swinney Syrah 2021
$45.00Shiraz/Syrah and Australia. It just works. The 2021 is quiet different from previous releases; rounder in shape, ample with finer, lacier tannins. Not so sleek or linear and a dialling back of the mouth puckering mineral acidity. Blueberry, sweet cherry, violets, raspberry and delicate spice. Plush, without any sense of heaviness, a triumph of a […]

Hofgut Falkenstein Herrenberg Riesling Kabinett Trocken 2020

Scintillating, racing and bracing. Mineral, zesty and salty. For all it’s lightness, it’s so complex and detailed. The best “light” white wine you could […]

Jo will add a little dosage at disgorgement during the first 24 months, but later disgorgements such as this one receive no such support. It […]
