Mullineux Straw Wine 2021 (375ml)
$90.00Gosh! this is a tough one to describe as we have not really tasted anything quite like this. Expressive bouquet of lime marmalade, lavender honey, apricot, yellow peach, fig and cherry. Luscious and intense with thrusting acidity and slightly textured. There is a reductive nutty element that balance’s the sweetness of the wine, but there’s […]

Domaine de Souch Jurancon Monplaisir Moelleux 2019
$60.00Monplaisir is made from the main plot located just under the property with the first picking of clusters affected by passerillage. The grapes are hand-harvested, whole cluster pressed and vinified in stainless steel vats. Malo does not happen and the level of sulphur is kept on the lower side for Moelleux. The wine is sterile-filtered […]

Reed Frequency Botrytis Riesling 2025
$90.00White nectarine and crystallised honey, followed by the smell of a Hawaiian botanical garden on a hot day, think hundreds of ginger flowers filling the humid air with their perfume. There’s a depth to this wine that pulls you in and almost warms you with its golden hues; colour you can taste. At first sip, the […]

Toro Albala Don PX Solera 1922 (375ml)
$40.00This is the debut release of Toro Albalá’s 1922 Solera, named for the very same year José María Toro Albalá moved the bodega into Aguilar de la Frontera’s old power plant.

Toro Albala Don PX 2004 (375ml)
$95.00Ultra concentrated and sticky, with unctuous but wholesome raisin aromas taken to a level that’s almost heavenly. In the mouth, the maple, cinnamon and brown sugar flavors are lusty and satisfying, and the finish never ends. This is P.X. in awesome form. 93 points, Michael Schachner, Wine Enthusiast Don PX is Toro Albalá’s signature vintage-dated wine, […]

Clos Larrouyat Jurancon Moelleux Phoenix 2020
$60.00Phoenix is crafted entirely from Petit Manseng. The drying southerly Foehn wind allows for the late harvests and passerillé necessary to produce Jurançon’s moelleux wines. The 2020 Phoenix was picked in November, then naturally fermented and aged for eight months in used barrels. With moderate residual sugar (of around 60 g/L), the racy Salharang style displays a terrific […]

Toro Albala Don PX 2021 (375ml)
$65.00The Don PX wines come from the youngest, sweet vintage wines of Toro Albalá. The carefully selected Pedro Ximénez grapes were hand-harvested and then left to dehydrate under the sun on straw mats for about seven days. The grapes were then pressed and, when the perfect balance between sugar, alcohol and acidity was reached in […]

Dagueneau Jurancon Les Jardins de Babylone Moelleux 2016
$385.00The 2016 is equally stunning but far more youthful and therefore, more delicate and discrete than the 2015. It’s a vibrantly racy wine with mixed citrus and fresh-cut apple notes and a juicy, vibrant close. Both vintages are Germanic in style, less so dessert wines but more for drinking throughout the meal (the way you […]

Toro Albala Don PX 2023 (375ml)
$65.00Deep amber with coppery highlights. Raisins and figs lead, layered with honey and dried date, lifted by a touch of muscatel and the racy acidity that keeps this from ever turning cloying. Unctuous and concentrated, with a savoury, vegetal edge on the finish—the house signature of balance over sheer weight. 100% hand-harvested Pedro Ximénez, sun-dried […]
