Hochkirch Tarrington Vineyards Chardonnay 2022
$70.00Every wine from Hochkirch sits on a plane of extraordinary quality and great value. Beyond the tension, detail and sensual complexity, is a texturally beautiful, intricate and woven wine, all the threads coming together yet somehow separate. The 2022 Tarrington Vineyards Chardonnay is perfection and I defy anyone who says they don’t like Chardonnay not […]

A Rodda Triangle Block Chardonnay 2021
$90.00From a tiny patch of vines within Smith’s vineyard. More new wood here and longer time in barrel, so it’s essentially classically styled and not a ‘contemporary’ expression as the other chardonnays are. Beautifully pure aromas of spring jasmine, honeycomb, mandarin, yellow and white peach and very fine oak. Very deep, brooding, fleshy, a masterclass […]

$80.00A fuller, fleshier, silky rendition of a sparkling rose, which suits me just fine. Lovely colour, with aromas of lavender, red summer fruit compote, ruby grapefruit and cherry pie.

Pipan Steel Tesoro Nebbiolo 2018
$55.00Out of Stock
Tasted alongside the 2017, the 2018 vintage is warmer and drier, and so fuller, with a slightly darker fruit profile and pronounced structure.

Battles Burnside Chardonnay 2022
$80.00If Lance Parkin can’t produce excellent chardonnay, then there’s something amiss. He’s a bit of a white burgundy buff and tasting great wine helps in many ways on the local front.
