Denis Mortet Marsannay Les Longeroies 2022
$195.00Out of Stock
“The 2022 Marsannay Les Longeroies was cropped at 35hL/ha as the vines are naturally low cropping due to the limestone soils. With around 50% whole bunches, this has an attractive nose with brambly black fruit, sous-bois and a touch of Japanese nori. The palate is medium-bodied with fine-grain tannins. The 10% new oak is very […]

Bannockburn Serre Pinot Noir 2023
$105.00Certified organic. Serré is Bannockburn’s most iconic and memorable Pinot Noir. The 1.2 hectares of densely planted (9,000 per hectare), low-yielding, own-rooted vines were planted exclusively to the MV6 clone in 1984 and 1986. It is likely Australia’s oldest plot of densely planted Pinot Noir—which goes some way to explaining the striking complexity and intense […]

JJ Prum Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Auslese 2022
$170.00Still very youthful on the nose, this is crammed with ripe peach, plus more delicate notes of pineapple and mangosteen. It’s a minor miracle that this kind of concentration can be packed into such a sleek, medium-bodied palate. What an amazing mouthfeel this has thanks to the seamless integration of slatey acidity and ripeness. Very […]

Such delicate white peach and sliced pear, rose and honeysuckle aromas. Very long finish that is as succulent as it is refined. You just want to linger there for as long as you can. Drink […]

$145.00A late ripening year with an ‘Aszú miracle’ appearing from mid-September onwards, giving beautifully concentrated Aszú berries with intense botrytis but also great acidity.

Valenciso 10 Anos Rioja 2012
$115.00The subtle, elegant and complex 2012 10 Años Después (10 years after!) matured for four years in concrete followed by four more years in Caucasian oak barrels that polished it. It has an incredible 15% alcohol, which doesn’t show at all, and the wine comes through as balanced and elegant, powerful too but with no […]

Toro Albala Don PX 2002 (375ml)
$95.00I tasted the 2002 Don PX, which has 17% alcohol and 399 grams of sugar and seems dense and more concentrated than the 1999 I tasted next to it. They are all different degrees or declinations of similar aromas and flavors, such as dates, raisins, coffee and espresso coffee. This comes through as balanced and […]

Bannockburn Pinot Noir 2022 (1500ml)

Domaine Didier Dagueneau Pur Sang 2022
$360.00“The 2022 Pur Sang is done in a really sophisticated style. Despite its long élevage, it needs a little more time for its oak (demi-muids and cigar-shaped barrels) to integrate fully and for its sense of strictness to mellow. But this isn’t a wine you’d crack open on release anyway. It is pure and clear, […]

Jonathan Didier Pabiot Pouilly Fumé Luminance 2020
$110.00Luminance is crafted from vines with an average age of 50 years. Planted in Kimmeridgian limestone with an active lime content of over 70%. A high active lime content is a feature of the region, but at this level, the vines must work very hard indeed for nutrients and water. The vineyard is terraced, steep […]

Huet Vouvray Le Mont Sec 2021
$115.00“This 2021 Le Mont Sec fills the mouth with pear, pineapple, nectarine and violet flavors. There’s a sense of seduction and succulence through the middle of this wine. The flint and the coolness of the site seem to bring a sense of tension and purpose through this wine, which seduces you then spits you out. […]

Bachelet-Monnot Maranges 1er Cru Les Prarons Dessus 2020
$100.00“The 2020 Santenay Prarons Dessus presents a tightly wound, tertiary bouquet that opens almost reluctantly in the glass. The palate is well balanced and quite saline, and the 25% whole bunches are nicely integrated. Rather spicy with a touch of balsamic toward the finish. So much freshness and vibrancy in this Santenay! Excellent.” 90-92 points, Neal […]

Ripe fruit, yellow peach, guava, pawpaw, kiwifruit and cherry. Very fine feel and subtle texture, flecked with spice. Imperious and magnificent. Waters Wine Co Exotic, rich, […]

Daniel Bouland Morgon Corcelette 2019 (1.5L)
$105.00Out of Stock
Now we enter the realm of Bouland’s spectacular, terroir-specific Morgons. This particular wine is the first of two cuvées that focus on Corcelette’s sandy, granitic soils. This soil generates wines of great perfume and finer, rounder tannins than those of Morgon’s more schist-influenced terroirs. Like all Bouland’s wines this was whole-bunch fermented with indigenous yeasts […]

Cavallotto Dolcetto D’Alba Vigna Scot DOC 2020
$50.00Dolcetto is not known for it’s ageing potential, but I had a theory that Dolcetto aged in large format and not in steel could defy conventional wisdom. So I served this to myself and heathen friends who shouldn’t by rights ever like a wine like this. Beautifully fragrant with sweet raspberry, English Strawberry and redcurrant, […]

Quealy Balnarring Pobblebonk Field Blend 2024
$35.00Quite possibly the most delicious Pobblebonk to date. Riesling, friulano, pinot grigio and ribolla gialla are the friends, each fermented wild in used French oak, on full solids and later blended. It’s heady with meadow flowers, lemon blossom and hints of lemon verbena, really spicy with nutty, leesy aromas, and the palate is both textural […]

The combined wines are matured in barrel. It’s a bold sparkling with honey on toast, cashew and sea-spray characters. Fuller in flavour, it shows a zingy tang of acidity and vigorous, […]

Domaine la Remejeanne Cotes du Rhone Les Chevrefeuilles Rouge 2022
$39.00I once heard from a Californian wine grower that syrah (or shiraz) was a chameleon of a grape variety, adapting itself to a plentitude of environment’s, wine making techniques and varietal bedfellows. It is for me, the greatest French varietal of them all. I was so taken by Remejeanne’s Chevrefeuilles rouge for it’s freshness, complexity, […]

Very polished through the impeccably balanced, subtle finish. Hard to believe that analytically this must have a significant amount of grape sweetness, because it’s […]
