Bellebonne-bis NV Rose
$45.00Strawberries and cream, raspberry and roses, all with wonderful clarity. Brioche notes are offset by that saline quality and again the chalky mouthfeel. So bright and engaging, you can taste the ripe grapes are utterly pristine. Fresh, engaging and incredibly moreish. The best value and most delicious pink fizz at this price in Australia. Waters […]

Home Hill Estate Pinot Noir 2023
$55.00This is a beguiling and dreamy wine. Translucent, deep ruby/magenta with a harmonious bouquet of dark, jubey fruit, subtle florals, spicy rolling tobacco and wet stone.

$40.00Very stylish and complex aromatics of summer red fruits, hedge fruits, fennel, mint, Turkish tobacco, fresh compost, tar, blood orange, dark chocolate, roses and Serano. The 2023 is the first vintage where all the fruit for the Landslide comes off estate vines, albeit young vines. Potential plus however. This is very serious and delicious. Deep […]

Dr Edge Tasmania Pinot Noir 2024
$58.00Peter Dredge is the very model of the modern major winemaker. Classically trained, technically strong, he has the solid foundations required to push things, as he punningly promises on the label, to the edge. Without the disciplined fruit sourcing, the commitment to keeping multiple parcels separate through fermentation and the finely tuned skill to blend […]

Dr Edge Brut Nature NV
$50.00Very light yellow/straw colour with freshness and some aged complexities introducing a toasty element. The wine is very dry and rich, complex and deep, with incisive lemon, verbena/herbal and lightly toasty flavours of balance and charm. Appetising and high-energy. Long, refreshing finish. A very smart non-vintage wine. 95 Points, Huon Hooke – The Real Review […]

Stargazer Chardonnay 2024
$70.00“Pale straw in colour, on the nose it is all bright fresh lemon peel and ripe white peaches. Custard pastry and cashew nuts with subtle flinty layer add a secondary layer under the primary fruit.

Stargazer Pinot Noir 2023
$70.00A beautifully pure, flint-struck Coal River Valley pinot noir from Sam Connew this year, perhaps showing a little more concentration than the previous release but losing none of the grace, detail and inherent drinkability that we love. Red fruits, wild strawberry and dark cherry fruits, five-spice, dried citrus rind, rose petals, hoisin, turned undergrowth and […]

Sailor Seeks Horse Chardonnay 2023
$69.00There’s a little more aromatic concentration this year methinks. Still resplendent in its ripe white peach and citrus fruits, flecked with spiced oatmeal, clotted cream, meadow wildflowers, grilled cashews, nougat, distant struck flint and nicely judged vanillin oak. Stony and nicely focused on the palate with a briny sapidity and impressive tension between fruit and […]

Decades Pinot Noir 2023
$78.00Is there more promise for Tasmanian chardonnay or pinot noir, or in a sense, are they equal? Considering the Decades chardonnay and pinot noir are off the same vineyard and the wines are as they are, I find i cannot apportion preference. Fragrant; it’s so beautifully alive with lavender and violets, clove, smoked paprika and […]

Holyman Pinot Noir 2024
$60.00Despite the light colour, pouring the wine releases an immense bouquet. I know we’re in for a treat! Expressive and vibrant with plum, cherry, raspberry, blackberry and five spice. Deep, succulent and complex and so much presence and grip. Tannins are very fine, that seem to tighten towards the close. Scaffolding acidity, with the length […]

Stargazer Pinot Noir 2024
$70.00“An exuberant nose of red cherry, pomegranate, violets, sarsaparilla, and thyme. The lifted pretty aromatics give way to similar vibrant spice on the palate. There is plenty of lush generous fruit alongside juicy red cherries, supported by clove, nutmeg and five spice. Soft velvet like tannins work with the bright acid to contribute to a […]

Evenfall Chardonnay 2023
$45.00A thoroughly complete Australian chardonnay, Evenfall’s white has a foot in just about all the stylistic camps and the total sum of its parts is awesome. Has all the drive, tang and mineral intensity of Chablis and the darker fruits, texture and flesh of Meursault. Lovely aromatics of gardenia, pastry, cashew, preserved lime, yellow peach […]

Pressing Matters R9 Riesling 2022
$42.00I love the ‘R’ designations on the Pressing Matters rieslings. From R0 for bone-dry to R139 for sweet, they are an indication of the RS in the wine. The R9, in theory, should teeter on that fulcrum between dry and off-dry, but that crystalline Tasmanian acidity tempers any sweetness and it appears dry. And totally […]

Holyman Chardonnay 2024
$60.00Only a tiny amount of this wine is made each year, and very little ever leaves Tasmania. It’s a pure, confident expression of site – built to reward patience in the cellar. Aromatically, it opens with white peach, and sweet citrus notes. The palate is taut and zingy, carrying through long on the finish. Oak […]

Meadowbank Blanc de Blancs 2018
$85.00I don’t normally like fizzes aged for long periods on lees but this, disgorged after five years, seems to have hit a sweet spot. Still very primary and super intense with pastry notes, butter, apple, almond cream, lavender, honey, grapefruit, lemon, lime, white peach and cinnamon. Fantastic intensity with great vibrancy, the acidity so lively […]

Pressing Matters R69 Riesling 2022
$42.00Pale green-yellow hue; a lifted perfume of honey, lime and lemon blossoms and the palate is rich and yet super-fine, the sweetness balancing out what is surely quite high acidity. The end result is gorgeous flavour and fruit/sugar/acid balance. The persistent honey note suggests the grapes were fully ripe. The finish is clean and harmonious. […]

Domaine A Petit A Cabernets 2014 Museum Release
$70.00St Emillion inspired, but for me, reminiscent of the haunting, autumnal wines of Pessac Leognan. Beautifully complex aromas of blackcurrant, cranberry, mulberry, blackberry, violets, garrigue herbs, tobacco leaf, mint and cocoa. Pure ripe fruit, supple initially, before the sensual squeeze of chewy, tobacco laced tannins. Very complex interplay of savoury and fruit notes with squid […]
