After the primary fermentation the wine was sulphured and transferred to a large cask for ageing on the heavy yeast less fo 12-months. Medium-full bodied textural wine, supported […]

Polperro Estate Pinot Noir 2024
$58.00Out of Stock
One of the best estate pinto noirs in Australia and ridiculous value for money. Medium to full bodied with aromas of blackberry, lavender, 5 spice, dark cherry, plum and cranberry. Sleek and voluminous, not a ‘light’ wine by any means. Sweet and tangy fruit, cake spice, oak spice, petrichor and a ferrous quality, unusual for […]

Fighting Gully Road Aglianico 2018
$45.00The winemaker has a close connection with Italy, hence the decision to plant 1450 individually-staked aglianico vines on a terrace at FGR. A fascinating grape brought to life and, importantly, managed beautifully, massaging its notoriously high tannin and acidity and bringing forth a veritable cavalcade of exotic, savoury aromas and flavours in bramble, black cherry, […]

Fighting Gully Road Chardonnay 2024
$50.00Twelve months in 300L French Tronçais barrels followed by three months on lees in tank before bottling. Chardonnay, the undoubted strength of Beechworth, was one of the first fruits picked in the ’24 vintage at FGR, retaining sensational, energised acidity while keeping a pretty tight flavour profile. Spring blossom aromatics mingle with tangy citrus and […]

Mercer Pinot Grigio 2025
$25.00Pinot Grigio is the perfect session wine, and Aaron Mercer has made a beaut from an organic vineyard in Orange. Tangy and fresh, and like all of his whites, plenty of body and fleshy fruit. To have with food, or to not is the question, either is the answer. Gardenia, lemon, lime, cream and almond […]

Polperro Estate Pinot Gris 2024
$45.00When most of us think of the Mornington Peninsula, we think of pinot noir and chardonnay. Pinot Gris/grigio should be added to the list, the best in Australia comes from here. Think Quealy, think Polperro. I wouldn’t normally “love” a pinot gris from anywhere, but this is stunning. Pear, smoke, mushroom, kiwi fruit, white peach, […]

Bicknell FC Applecross Pinot Noir 2024

Pipan Steel Tesoro Nebbiolo 2018
$55.00Out of Stock
Tasted alongside the 2017, the 2018 vintage is warmer and drier, and so fuller, with a slightly darker fruit profile and pronounced structure. Gorgeous aromatics of cola, aniseed, cassis, rose, geranium, bitumen and savoury spice. Rich and full flavoured, but in no way heavy and the overall impression is one of translucence and purity. Round […]

Inkwell Infidels Primitivo 2022
$30.00Inkwell make zinfandel and primitivo. Same, same, essentially. But the different blocks perform differently, so the nomenclature reflects that. This is genuinely reminiscent of Puglian primitivo, resplendent with dried fruits, currants, fig and date, blackberry, and hit heavily with spices, in an amaro and panforte register, anise to the fore, and underwritten by a dry, […]

Bicknell FC Applecross Chardonnay 2024
$60.00From the now defunct Lance’s vineyard in St. Andrews, planted in 1984. Whole-bunch pressed to older puncheons. The combination of a cool year and a warm site works beautifully here. A bright green gold. Aromas of perfectly ripened stone fruits meet a little grilled cashew and gentle saline scents in this gorgeous wine. Gently fleshy […]

Bicknell FC Lance Close Planted Pinot Noir 2024
$85.00From the Lance vineyard, planted to 8300 vines/ha in 1989; a vineyard that produced some of the Yarra’s most coveted pinots in the 1980s. A light, very bright crimson red. Fragrant and even more pure fruited than the excellent Applecross pinot off the same vineyard. Aromas of alpine strawberries, redcurrants, bergamot and subtle floral notes […]

Gilbert Sauvignon Blanc 2022
$30.00Succulent, pulpy, deep and concentrated, and still maintaining freshness. Bright and vivid flavours of ripe citrus, passionfruit, blackcurrant, yellow peach, apricot, grapefruit and rockmelon. Weight and texture, you really feel like you’re getting something substantial and despite having all the hallmarks of the varietal, utterly delicious for those who preference something else. One of the […]

Bicknell FC Applecross Chardonnay 2022
$55.00From a 330m-elevation vineyard in the Upper Yarra. Whole-bunch pressed to older puncheons. Natural fermentation and no mlf. Sadly, this will be the last Applecross chardonnay from this vineyard. A very bright green gold. More oomph than usual. Lovely complexity with its citrus, stone fruits, white flowers and subtle matchstick. And while this is tightly […]

Fighting Gully Road Rose 2024
$30.00Mark Walpole of Fighting Gully Road has an international reputation as a viticulturist, particularly in regard to Italian varietals. Yet the quality of his wines isn’t entirely due to the magnificent quality of his vineyards, but also his excellence as a winemaker. The 2024 rose shouldn’t be exciting, but it is, and it’s wonderful and […]

Maker Master Merchant Chardonnay 2022
$25.00A blend of Orange and Hunter Valley fruit, this is so delicious, it makes you wonder why we don’t do more multi regional blending. The richness of Hunter Valley fruit, all peach, apricot and lime joining Orange’s grapefruit, melon and lemon. Full flavoured and fresh with some cashew and cream. Awesome value. Waters Wine Co

Fighting Gully Road Block 2 Sangiovese 2022
$65.00Crushed, macerated on skins in large format oak, 18 months’ maturation in new and seasoned oak. Built for longevity, not speed, Block 02 is a viticulturist’s dream come true, a block planted according to a firm clonal selection protocol.

Haddow and Dineen Sehnsucht Riesling 2024
$45.00Always a lovely wine to taste, opening with pear, melon, citrus blossom, spring jasmine, lime, ripe lemon and subtle buttery/pastry notes. A wine of dimensions, the textural element a caress, but it also enables the wine to hold and enfold your palate. Juicy and unctuous, there is, however, an overwhelming sense of control and precision, […]

Mercer Vermentino 2025
$28.00Grown on the Roxburgh vineyard in the Upper Hunter Valley, no other varietal represents a sustainable growing future like Vermentino. Naturally high acid makes a bright, textural delight with tangy citrus flavour and acidity. Plenty of crunch and energy, we hope this wine is still around in the warmer months. Winemaker’s Notes

Mercer Hunter Valley Chardonnay 2023
$25.00The best place in Australia, for rich, round, easy going chardonnay is the Hunter Valley. These wines can age too, a couple of bottles of 2003, from a good vineyard will testify. At 21 years of age, both bottles were delicious and had at least another terrific five years. The 23 Mercer is a knockout, […]

$55.00From a single vineyard sitting at 845m elevation on a northeast aspect. Makrut lime leaves, lemon-lime cordial, candied green apple and dried hay. A slip ‘n slide of succulent acidity followed by sunflower kernel, silver needle tea and a woven fabric of texture. This is only beginning to hit its stride with baked clay minerality, […]

Bicknell FC Lance Old Vine Cabernet Sauvignon 2024
$85.00This is a wine that gets me unreasonably excited about Yarra cabernet. A tightrope walker, risk taker, the excitement coming from how close it gets to the edge. Mulberry fruit and leaf, cassis, cedar, rubbed rosemary. It’s the lithesome way it moves that excites. 142 dozen made. 12.7% alcohol. 97 points – Nick Ryan, The […]
