Laughing Jack Greenock Shiraz 2019
$50.00Terrific rendition of Greenock Creek’s rich and opulent flavours. Full bodied, with black fruits, some sweet raspberry, sumac, cinnamon and wood spice.

Swinney Mourvedre 2022
$45.00This is a variety that is finding a safe, comfortable home in Frankland River. Lovely perfumed red fruits on the nose displaying a slightly earthy, dusty raspberry and light plummy character.

Hirsch Bohan Dillon Pinot Noir 2020
$140.00Hirsch’s wines are personified by delicacy and weightless concentration. Pure, cool and fresh with red fruits, hedge fruits, subtle spice and autumn notes of fallen leaves and fresh earth.

Mayford Chardonnay 2022
$44.00This is an impressive follow up to the 2021 release, ratcheting up the quality another notch…the words “best ever” are tempting to utter.

Mac Forbes Yarra Junction Village Pinot Noir 2022
$65.00Dark fruits and rounder in shape than the other village wines. Blackberry, cassis, blueberry, cherry and Christmas spice. The sweet fruit is counterbalanced by savoury notes of clove, cured meats and bay leaf.

Timo Mayer Volcanic Syrah 2022
$60.00Syrah isn’t exactly the varietal that comes to mind when you think of the Yarra Valley, but in the past 12 months some of my favourite wines from anywhere have been Yarra Valley Grenache, Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah. More generous than I’d expected, plusher and the whole bunches play their part, but not overly so. […]

Bannockburn Pinot Noir 2022 (1500ml)

Arnot-Roberts Sonoma Coast Syrah 2021
$130.00Tasting sixty-odd American wines recently, the ’21 Arnot-Roberts Sonoma Coast Syrah was hands down my favourite. Sensual aromatics of sweet dark and red fruits, lavender, whole bunch spice and kirsch. 100% whole bunch is hard to imagine, as they in no way dominate or overpower the fruit. Juicy, sweet and tangy fruit – texturally the […]

Thorne and Daughters Menagerie Pinotage 2022
$40.00Thorne and Daughters ‘Menagerie’ Pinotage is the contemporary face of Pinotage, a grape that is extremely versatile in the cellar and at table.

Bloody plum, rhubarb, raspberry, cocoa powder and cherry. […]

Iggy Deda Barossa Valley Roussanne Marsanne 2022
$40.00Pale straw to golden in colour, with omnipresent aromas of pear, lychee, yellow peach, and honey, yet at a level above 2021 vintage. And evidently more complex, rounded, and exuberant on the nose. Hints of nuttiness, think macadamia. Voluptuous mouthfeel with smooth, creamy texture, and just enough acidity to keep everything in balance. A tad […]

Stonegarden Riesling 2023
$40.00A great vintage for Eden Valley Riesling, combining soaring aromatics, richness, complexity and precision. Vivid flavours of grapefruit, fresh lime, lime preserve, green mango, jasmine, cumin, green apple and white peach. Very pure mouthfeel, ripe thank heavens it’s not picked too early, and masses of freshness. Poised, elegant and immensely powerful, the fruit thrusting to […]

Domenica Chardonnay 2023
$55.00‘A very fine chardonnay, without quite the precision, detail and tension that I recall from other years. Stone fruit, flint, lanolin, porcini and that regional tattoo of glazed quince. Quinine bitterness at the finale. Mid-weighted and nicely nervous in the mouth, while suitably open-knit enough to breach already. Fine. Drink or hold. Screw cap.’ 95 Points […]

Vinya Vella Grenache 2022
$65.00Tasted alongside the superb, burly 2021, the differences of vintage plain to see. Beautiful aromas, indeed, more lifted than the 21 with sweet and savoury spices, lavender, violets and a compote of sweet and tangy red, black and briary fruits. Medium to full boded with a lovely poised silken flow, the whole bunch tannin guiding […]

Reed Siren Riesling 2023
$45.00There is something Sarr like here, the flavours complex, explosive and tangy, yet with a texture of silk. For those who love German Rieslings, this sits at about a Spatlese feinherb. Rich, succulent and full bodied with flavours of honeycomb, blackcurrant, cherry, rose, fresh lime, candied lime, peach, passionfruit, oats and grapefruit. Deep, and despite […]

Quealy Balnarring Pinot Grigio 2023
$35.00A blend of two sites managed by Quealy, this is textbook pinot grigio, really good. Flavoursome with wild herbs, flinty with a mouth-watering briny character adding to the appealing chewy phenolics. White stone fruit, glacé lemon and dried pear – there’s a lot in this and it’s complex but not at the expense of drinkability. […]
