Domaine Tempier Bandol Rose 2024
$88.00The 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 […]

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
$165.00‘Impressively deep, bright red-purple colour, in great shape for an Australian pinot of its age, then the bouquet arrives with a great complexity of smoked charcuterie, root vegetables, dark cherry and blackberry delivered with great intensity and volume. The concentration and depth are outstanding and it’s all delivered with great elegance and refinement. The lightness of […]

Irrewarra Pinot Noir 2023
$70.00I haven’t tried Irrewarra for a few years and had forgotten what a wonderful set of wines they are. They have the hallmark prettiness of Farr, presumably from ferments with a high proportion of whole berries, the mid palate flesh and weight and the lovely finessed grip of cashmere tannins. The wines offer a gorgeous, […]

By Farr GC Chardonnay 2024
$170.00The GC Chardonnay (GC – Gary Charles) is attributed to all the knowledge we have been able to extract from Gary to create a close planted / high density planting of chardonnay on an exposed côte. These hillsides facing North, North East and East will be the backbone of the Farr dynasty for decades to come. They […]

Domaine Naturaliste Rebus Cabernet Sauvignon 2024
$35.00Perfect cabernet sauvignon. Perfect. If you ever doubted the deliciousness of cabernet, you need to try this wine. Very complex, yet sooo cabernet, with blackcurrant, violets, raspberry, hedge fruits, spicy oak and tobacco. Richly flavoured, layered and intense, with a chewy savouriness, juicy mid palate and gorgeous food loving tannins. Very fresh, the wine’s natural […]

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 […]

Domaine Naturaliste Purus Chardonnay 2024
$60.00Pure as the name implies, but it loses nothing in terms of flavour intensity and power. Malolactic is blocked, so the acid profile is different. It bloody well sizzles. Green apple, grapefruit, lime, white peach, almond meal and a sort of briny quality. A whip crack of a wine, full of tautness and tension, and […]

Domaine Tempier Lulu and Lucien Bandol Rouge 2022
$110.00At Domaine Tempier, grapes from different vineyards are skillfully blended to create this wine, made up of between 70 and 75% Mourvèdre (depending on the year) combined with Grenache, Cinsault and a hint (2%) of old Carignan. Clusters are hand-selected in the vineyard and in the cellar; de-stemmed, crushed and put into concrete vats for […]

Iggy Adelaide Hills Rebula 2023
$45.00Ribolla Giolla in Italian, and certainly made as a homage to Friuli. From a cooler part of the Adelaide Hills, a triangle of 300 vines at the bottom of a slope otherwise planted to Syrah. 40% on skins for 2 months, yet there is nothing orange or skinsy about this. Generous and succulent with yellow […]

Farr Rising Chardonnay 2024
$60.00‘It’s a suggestion of a golden flash in the glass. That first interaction makes it pleasing and generous. The nose is faint yellow apple, something peppery, white chocolate, celery leaf, dried mango and baking spice. That sounds like an overreaction, but it’s what I got. Obviously, these are flashes, like a flickering light that begins […]

Irrewarra Chardonnay 2024
$70.00It’s curious to note that the Irrewarra pinot noir provides the Farr stable with a burlier, darker, savoury and earthy wine, whilst the chardonnay is the most linear, precise and acid driven of the range. I’m not sure if this is a function of the vineyard or winemaking choices, but it makes for a fascinating […]

ChaLou Pinot Noir 2024
$42.00A fantastic pinot noir from Orange. Terrific complexity with hedge fruits, liqueur cherry, poached plum and blueberry. There is a lot of detail, with layers of flavour and texture. Interwoven notes of Amaro, savoury spice and fresh compost. Plenty of flesh on the mid palate, the fruit becoming sweeter and more pure as the wine […]

ChaLou Riesling 2023
$35.00Out of Stock
An awesome riesling, the 18gms of residual ensuring balance and a wider range of flavours. Blood orange, grapefruit, white flowers, cherry, blackcurrant and mint. Some pressings have been used, and it’s a winemaking masterstroke, lending the wine a subtle texture. Pure, translucent and very intense, rippling with energy, verve and character. One of Orange’s finest […]

Domaine Naturaliste Artus Chardonnay 2023
$55.00An immense wine of flavour, stuffing, structure and intensity. It’s also a chardonnay that demonstrates the sheer lavishness of the varietal and the extreme quality of the fruit and winemaker. Pungent and expressive, with white flowers, a compote of tangy stone and citrus fruits, olive, cashew nut, creamy butter, vanilla and pineapple. Terrific palate impact, […]

Domenica Rose 2023
$32.00Domenica Rosé is built from select parcels of fruit fermented in neutral barrels shaping a complex wine worthy of attention. It has been featured by The WineFront and Halliday magazine as one of Australia’s leading rosé wines. The 2023 is no exception to its predecessors, made with intention as a serious and refreshing style.

By Farr Tout Pres Pinot Noir 2022
$165.00‘Deep and bright, youthful colour with lots of purple in the rim and great limpidity. The first aroma is of root vegetables, potato and parsnip, gradually giving way to rich ripe dark cherry that floods the palate with succulent sweet fruit flavour and beautifully balanced fine-grained tannins. The tannins provide a backbone and a counter-balance […]

Saumaize-Michelin Vire-Cleese 2020
$60.00Tangy and zesty with citrus, grapefruit, white peach, jasmine and pear. A wine that ensures that you’re tasting the south, full flavoured and rich, but perhaps slightly more controlled and linear than the rest of the range. Yellow fruits begin to emerge on the palate, but are kept very much in check by the lavish […]

Tim Smith Barossa Grenache 2022
$38.00It’s all about McLaren Vale Grenache at the moment, but the Barossa Valley should not be overlooked and Tim Smith’s iteration is one of the best, if not the best value from the entire valley. Incredible aromatics with a compote of English summer red fruits, blueberry, some blackcurrant. sweet spices and an almost Nebbiolo sensibility […]

By Farr Sangreal Pinot Noir 2023
$130.00Sour cherry and cream. Green pepper, cornichon, dried citrus peel. Loads of brown spice like mace, cloves and even a waft of cardamom. Ripe plum, dark cherries, dried earth and a warmth, not from alcohol but generosity of flavour. The wine is so welcoming. I just had the smallest sip, and this wine just mushrooms […]

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 […]

Decades Chardonnay 2023
$78.00Beauty is immediate. The pure and crystalline quality is captured in the gorgeous aromatics of grapefruit, fig, melon, spring jasmine and chocolate orange. Concentrated, but not big. Lithe, athletic and pure, but with a tempering suppleness; the tightness of youth and coiled power finessed, creamy and fleshy. Citrus and orchard fruits, mostly, the palate gripping […]

Charles Melton Sparkling Red NV
$80.00Out of Stock
Use of the traditional Australian technique for their sparkling red, as pioneered by Seppelts at Great Western. The base wine is aged for around two years or so in oak and then tirage bottled and left on lees for up to four years. This gives a complex aromatic of fruit sweetness and classic autolysis character […]

Gerard Julien & Fils Bourgogne Rouge Origine 2020
$75.00Out of Stock
I’m not sure why, but there has never been a better time to drink Bourgogne rouge or blanc. Usually the least expensive option, also meant poor value. But this is something else. Intense aromatics of sweet raspberry, strawberry, plum, blackberry, subtle wood and minerals. It’s the lightest wine in the range, but carries plenty of […]

Farr Rising Gamay 2024
$60.00‘Big, dark, and bright colour in the glass. The nose is intense dark spice, punchy with a hit of salinity, savoury herbs and graphite. Behind this assertive forward barrage, or perhaps layered between it, is a perfumed and pretty musk and confectionary element that gives away it’s carbonic production method. The second sniff is more […]

Iggy Springton Eden Valley Syrah 2020
$75.00Out of Stock
There’s no mistaking where this comes from. Super vibrant aromatics of violets, cassis, kirsch, chocolate, blueberry, raspberry and charcoal. Rich and full bodied. Very powerful indeed, yet with precision and a sort of tactile grace. Some subtle sweet meat and game notes, which will no doubt come through more as the wine ages. Still, the […]

Stonegarden Riesling 2023
$40.00A great vintage for Eden Valley Riesling, combining soaring aromatics, richness, complexity and precision. Vivid flavours of grapefruit, fresh lime, lime preserve, green mango, jasmine, cumin, green apple and white peach. Very pure mouthfeel, ripe thank heavens it’s not picked too early, and masses of freshness. Poised, elegant and immensely powerful, the fruit thrusting to […]

Stonegarden Northwest Grenache 2021
$65.00Out of Stock
From vines planted in 1858 and 1854. This is really something, framed by cashmere tannins that run long, from beginning to end. Super aromatic, as with all the wines, a compote of fennel, aniseed, blackberry, blackcurrant, rhubarb, smoke and earth. Fresh and vibrant, very fine, with soft bones of structure and vivid red fruits on […]
