La Battistelle Montesei Soave Classico 2022
$32.00Aromatically complex, every sniff revealing something new. White flowers, marjoram, white peach, lemon and melon. Delicate palate, light almost, but with pulpy fruit. For all its lightness, the wine has terrific personality, the flavours clear and precise and a structure that is entirely wrapped up by the fruits, flowers and spice. Absolute lunch perfection.

La Battistelle ‘Battistelle’ Soave Classico 2021
$40.00Despite being a single vineyard and not a blend like the Montesei, there are similarities. Wildly complex, with white flowers, honeysuckle, lemon zest, grapefruit, white peach, orchard fruits and mustard seed. Deep and focused with greater amplitude and a peacocks tail of flavour and texture. The palate is at once succulent and light on its […]

Cantina Marangona Lugana 2021
$35.00The first Turbiana I have tasted, wishing I had encountered the varietal years ago. Spring Jasmine, green apple, white peach, nectarine and lemon zest. Subtle textural grip and hints of cream embellish an otherwise linear, mineral palate. Super fresh, pitched perfectly, like a brilliant Soave in that it has the perfect fruit, acidity and flesh […]

Badia a Coltibuono Cultusboni Cetamura Chianti 2020
$38.00All of Badia a Coltibuono’s Chiantis share the same DNA and it is evident throughout all the wines. Classic, poised and balanced. Certainly the softest, plumpest and fruit driven of the three releases, with less tertiary elements. Red fruits, dried flowers, tobacco and the lovely skinsy Sangiovese tannins that hold it all together. Perfect bistro/restaurant […]

Giannitessari Soave 2021
$30.00Made from mostly Garganega, with Trebbiano providing aromatic lift and structure. Quite succulent for a Soave, and softer, broader than the Classico. Melon, almonds, frangipani, lemon, apricot and white peach. Very easy to drink, with a perfect tension of zing and gentle texture to match with food, or not, it really doesn’t matter.

Fletcher C21 Langhe DOC Chardonnay 2021

Grapefruit, peach, jasmine, subtle oak notes and rock melon. Super intense palate, so bright, tight and coiled. The fruit is of the highest […]

Slick and angular, the fruits sweet and tangy. Very savoury, mouthwatering and lip smacking with crushed herbs, terracotta tannins and bright acidity. Perfect casual drinking. Waters Wine Co Shop […]

Cantina della Stazione Barbera d’Alba DOC 2021
$45.00Dave Fletcher’s wines all possess a cool, savoury sleekness, but in the Barbera we find more flesh, mid palate weight and rounder shape. Perfumed and heady with bright. Dark, blue and bramble fruits. Some tertiary notes too of cocoa powder, Asian spices and turned earth. There’s a little more heft here and the tannins, savoury […]
