Domaine Tempier Bandol Rose 2024
$89.00The grapes used to make this rosé come from selected parcels where the vines are on average 20 years old. The yields are low, which explains the intense concentration and distinct expression of each varietal in this wine. The presence of Mourvedre gives this wine its strong character, balance and complexity. An intense fruit and […]

By Farr Farrside Pinot Noir 2023
$105.00The evolution of this site and wine is complexing, gone are the days of words being used like bold, brash and muscular. Now two decades of releasing the wine, the description is fine, vibrate and ethereal. This wine has a retained nose for the moment, but the mouthfeel is almost jubilant in comparison. Even against […]

Place of Changing Winds Between Two Mountains Pinot Noir 2023
$135.00A phenomenally individualistic wine and the most emblematic pinot noir that I have had from Place of Changing Winds. There is tension everywhere. Sleek shape and structure, with high toned fruit notes of blueberry, hedge fruits, black and red, with cut flowers Indian spices, sweet and savoury, vanilla and mint. There is a brooding quality, […]

By Farr Chardonnay 2024
$105.00A great vintage for By Farr Chardonnay, although every vintage seems pretty great! The lusciousness and richness is dialled up, without any loss of freshness. Creamy with cashew, yellow peach, spring jasmine, wood spice and nougat beautifully interwoven. A wine for flavour fetishists, utterly palate coating. Textured, with dry extract – the mid palate, bursting […]

By Farr RP Pinot Noir 2022
$165.00Sleek, polished and precise. The ‘22 RP is a beautiful garnet colour in the glass. The nose is small red fruits; cranberry, raspberry, red cherry, wedded to loads of spice. Savoury notes of cornichon, a pretty note of red petals all tie in this wonderfully complex wine. Notes of Cola which sounds weird, but I […]

By Farr GC Chardonnay 2023
$165.00If there’s a better chardonnay in Australia I have not tasted it. A wine that is elevated beyond the usual descriptors of style, fad or fashion, the GC is in it’s own right one of the country’s most absorbing and delicious wine, of any variety. Immensely complex with spring Jasmine, Victoria plum, white cherry, grapefruit, […]

By Farr Sangreal Pinot Noir 2022
$125.00It’s hard to go past the cliche of ethereal, but it is, always. Incredible vibrancy of aromatics with cedar, violets, lavender, dark cherry, blackcurrant, rhubarb, poached plum and sweet Middle Eastern spices. The whole bunch is so controlled, with Asian spices integrating beautifully with silken sheets of black fruits and blueberry. The fruit is so […]

By Farr Shiraz 2023
$105.00This is sensational. It’s everything that amazing Shiraz tastes like. I say that from a non “big Aussie” Shiraz viewpoint. How a wine from the Moorabool Valley tastes like something from the Northern Rhone escapes me. Salty, peppery, black olives, floral notes and barrel spice. It has a coolness to it, accentuated by the acid […]

Storm Vrede Pinot Noir 2022

The 2022 Vrede pinot noir is made from two clones and aged in 35% new wood. Juicy and mouth filling, a sense of […]

Moss Wood Chardonnay 2023

These combine with lots of roast almonds and cashews, shortbread biscuits, malt and toasty oak for added complexity. The palate is lively, with fresh acidity giving lift to peaches, limes, grapefruit and caramel; there is full body […]

Thomas Braemore Semillon 2023
$35.00“Braemore is a distinctive vineyard, and this is a distinctive wine. For a semillon, this is uncharacteristically fruity, with feijoa and passionfruit notes wrapped around a Tahitian lime core. The fullness of the palate is captivating, as is the intensity of the flavour. A joyous wine with great character and appeal.” 96 Points – Toni […]

$95.00The 2022 Morgon Côte du Py has another very attractive bouquet with just a touch more fruit intensity than the Côte du Py, wonderful mineralité and tension. Very composed. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins, a little sturdier than the Cuvée Corcelette. There’s fine grip toward the finish with a persistent peppery aftertaste. Be […]
