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 […]

La Petite Mort Qvevri Gentil 2021
$35.00Despite the floral nature of these two Alsatian varieties, they complement and contrast each other brilliantly. The white blossom aromas of the Muscat provide a base line and the rose and lychee of the Gewürz sit on top to create exotic layers of fruit, spice and flowers. But this is not a sweet wine, and […]

Hochkirch Villages Pinot Noir 2021
$50.00This is 100% estate fruit, 25% whole bunches were retained while the balance of the crop was destemmed. A wild ferment was in small open vats and the juice had about three to four days rest before some gentle foot-stomping and a daily plunge. Everything was pressed after 14 days into tank, and then gravity-fed […]

Lambert Wines Nebbiolo 2022
$80.00Out of Stock
“For what I want from a wine, nebbiolo ticks every box,” says Lambert. “But it’s the ultimate challenge for a winemaker. The winemaking itself is relatively easy, but the variety is so fickle: you have to adapt your farming to the site where it’s grown, and it has such a long growing season. There are so […]

Hochkirch Syrah 2021
$50.00The 2017 was the first Hochkirch Syrah we tasted. Revelatory; unique and detailed, we simply could not believe this was an Australian wine. The 2021 is a little deeper, with slightly darker blackberry fruit, structure, fine detail, gamey notes, freshness and a compelling herbal and spicy lift. Very fine, moreish and refreshing. Waters Wine Co […]

La Petite Mort Saperavi 2021
$40.00Without doubt, the finest Saperavi in Australia. Made traditionally in Amphorae, left on skins for 180 days and a small dash of Sulphur the only addition. Yet despite this, the tannins are silky and the fruit vivid and fresh. Deeper than the 2020, brooding, with blackberry, mulberry, plum, blackcurrant and raspberry. There’s a ferrous element […]

Lambert Wines Chardonnay 2022
$55.00A delight to just smell, let alone drink, the stony Denton soils shine through scents of ripe citrus fruits and white flowers. Texturally too, it is simply gorgeous, with compact, chalky weight aligned to lithe acidity, a whisper of grip and pent-up energy. Poised, driven and sustained, it’s Yarra Valley Chardonnay at the peak of […]

Hochkirch Maximus Pinot Noir 2021
$70.00This is the best Pinot Noir that John can produce each year at Hochkirch, some years it is not made. These are the oldest vines and the best barrels. This wine always has a sensual, elegant mouthfeel but with outstanding retention of acidity and freshness and a distinctive earthy, sappy complexity which is the terroir. Pure, […]

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 […]
