La Rioja Alta 890 Gran Reserva 2011
$600.002011 is a forgotten vintage after the famous 2010, but you shouldn’t forget it if you are a smart buyer. Aromas of vanilla, orange peel, black walnuts, truffles, toffee, black sesame, balsam and moss. So savory yet juicy and vibrant, with a long, long finish. So much pleasure here. A little less vertical than the […]

$65.00This is the style of chardonnay that put Mac Forbes on the map – tight, saline, intense and mouthwatering. Green apple, citrus – fresh, preserved, and acacia honey, pink grapefruit and white peach. Super tense and tight, the skin contact adding just that little bit of texture and mid palate oomph. Very long, never deviating […]

Reed Amplitude Riesling 2024
$60.00If I was rich man I would buy every single bottle. Only 600 litres produced off what Sierra Reed emphatically stated is the best Riesling vineyard outside Germany and to emphasis the point, the Riesling is no longer, grafted over to Chardonnay for commercial reasons. If you have taken my advice, you too will feel […]

Patrick Piuze Petit Chablis 2023
$70.00Patrick Piuze’s 2023 Petit Chablis is showing very well in the context of the appellation, offering up notes of lemon zest, acacia and pear.

Domaine la Remejeanne Cotes du Rhone Les Chevrefeuilles Rouge 2022
$39.00I once heard from a Californian wine grower that syrah (or shiraz) was a chameleon of a grape variety, adapting itself to a plentitude of environment’s, wine making techniques and varietal bedfellows. It is for me, the greatest French varietal of them all. I was so taken by Remejeanne’s Chevrefeuilles rouge for it’s freshness, complexity, […]

Craiglee Eadie Shiraz 2019
$48.00Funnily enough, when I tried this, I thought there was a dash of viognier, as it reminded me of Cote Rotie. Super fragrant with cured meats, fresh compost, smoke, Middle Eastern spices, black and red fruits and violets. Full bodied, succulent, masses of fruit and rich, oozing tannins. Very different from the estate shiraz and […]

Henri Germain Meursault Limozin 2022
$265.00“Another wine that has only partially completed its malolactic fermentation is the 2022 Meursault Le Limozin, a medium to full-bodied, satiny and fleshy wine that’s broader and more voluminous than the taut Chevalières. Offering up reductive aromas of pear, hazelnuts and iodine, it concludes with a long, mouthwatering finish.” 91-93 points, William Kelley, The Wine Advocate […]

Caroline Morey Chassagne Montrachet Chambrees 2023

Delicate, nuanced, good acidity, a pure and perfumed Chassagne for the medium term. Not too reductive at this stage. Drink from 2027-2032. 89-91 points – […]

Fabien Coche Meursault ‘Les Chevalieres’ 2021
$250.00The lieux-dit of Les Chevalieres is situated above the village of Meursault. Above is the lieux-dit of Les Luchets, which produces a higher toned, more tensile wine. I can’t help but think that this is ideally situated, in a sense, mid-slope, the perfect aspect in Burgundy. Impossibly complex, with notes of white flowers, lemon, lime, […]

Quinta Do Noval 10 Year Old Tawny Port
