Mercer Pinot Grigio 2026
$28.00Pinot 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 […]

Fighting Gully Road Sangiovese 2024
$35.00Medium-bodied, with plush, fine-grained tannins that linger. Brambly dark berries, sour cherry and plum lead, with nuances of dried herbs, raspberry and earthy savouriness. Mouthwatering and beautifully composed. “Mark Walpole loves sangiovese and the feeling is reciprocated. This is a mighty strong follow-up to the ’23, fairly bristling in cherry-fruited and aromatic brightness and […]

Rob Hall Cabernets 2024
$30.00A blend of 55/43/2% cabernet sauvignon/merlot/malbec. 16–20 days on skins and matured in seasoned hogsheads. A bright, medium crimson red. Another very well-made, ridiculously priced cabernet blend from Rob Hall. Aromas of cassis, cedar and a touch of violets lead onto the medium-bodied, well-balanced and already delicious palate. Drink by 2031. 95 Points – Philip […]

Tillie J Aligote 2025
$42.00Aligote has become trendy, presumably because in Burgundy at least, it’s hard to tell the difference with chardonnay and they are invariably cheaper. Ironically, I find it’s more varietal in Australia, being more linear than chardonnay and fine boned. Tillie J’s is remarkable, a shock really, it’s just so damn good and such good value! […]

Jasper Hill Lo Stesso Fiano 2025
$32.00From estate grown and purchased fruit, Jasper Hill’s Lo Stesso fiano is one of the country’s best. White flowers, pawpaw, creamy and spicey aromatics. Displays all the versatility of fiano, with a lovely pumice-like texture, juicy white and yellow peach, rhubarb, fig, quince and cardamon. Beautifully balanced, a harmonised seam of acidity freshens, brightens and […]

Gembrook Hill Village Pinot Noir 2025
$38.00A taste of Gembrook Hill’s quality and style, though not from their vineyards. Classic Yarra Valley Pinot notes of English strawberry, raspberry, poached plum, violets and a hint of fresh compost. The aromatics are incisive and vibrant, with vivid, translucent fruit. Medium to full-bodied, it’s plush and pillowy, with more depth and weight than expected – […]

Chateau de Terrefort Lescalle 2023
$28.00Chateau de Terrefort Lescalle is in the commune of Macau, next to its more famous neighbor, Margaux. Like Margaux, the soils and environs are similar, as is the varietal mix, in this case 80% merlot, 20% cabernet sauvignon. The wine saw no oak whatsoever, and it’s rich, with delectable freshness and vibrancy. Juicy, tensioned by […]

La Battistelle ‘Roccolo del Durlo’ Soave Classico 2023
$65.00Dense and rich with yellow peach, paw paw, apricot, cherry, kiwifruit, lime and gardenia. Old vines and low yields on a steep gradient lend themselves to contraction, structure and individuality. The palate is unctuous, and it’s hard not to imagine taking a bite out of a perfectly ripe peach, or cherry or taking a spoon […]

Rob Hall Pinot Noir 2025
$30.00Such a wonderful wine, Rob Hall’s Yarra Valley pinot noir, one of the most consistent and best value wines in the region. Lifted aromatics with lavender, sweet and tangy red fruits and savoury spice. Light to medium bodied, with fantastic concentration of flavours, perky acidity and soft, fine tannins.

Kleine Zalze Cellar Selection Chenin Blanc 2022
$25.00The grapes for this wine come predominantly from selected vineyards in Stellenbosch, Paarl and Swartland. Owing to the nature of bush vines, careful canopy management was exercised so that no bunches were exposed to excessive sunlight and that an even ripening of the grapes was ensured. The 2022 harvest started very late due to covld […]

A Rodda Cuvee de Chais 2022
$38.00An array of red and purple fruits (think redcurrants, dark cherries and plums), heightened by aromas of violets and wild herbs. The supple fruit characters are interwoven with fine, velvety tannins giving the wine great balance and finesse. ‘Cuvée de Chais’ loosely translates as Cellar Blend and is Adrian’s interpretation of a traditional Bordeaux […]

Mulline Pinot Gris 2025
$35.0020% was crushed and fermented on skins for seven days. A pale, bright salmon colour. Beautifully poised with its aromas of redcurrant, nectarine, pear and blood orange. Even better on the palate, where the flavours and texture are perfectly balanced by subtle time-on-skins tannins, before finishing orange-pithy and long. Should age nicely, too. Excellent. 96 […]

Granite Hills 1971 Block Riesling 2022
$35.00Intense aromatics of passionfruit, lime, blackcurrant, cherry, stone fruits, honey, mustard and savoury spice. Dense, concentrated, in fact, perhaps the deepest core of power that I have tasted in an Australian Riesling. Expansive palate, direct in flavour, precise scaffold, chalky texture and that width! There is so much hidden here, so much pleasure to come. […]

Saltfleet Grenache 2024
$40.00There’s an understatement to this. That’s not meant as detriment. It’s the thing about Saltfleet, from a youthful pair that crammed in intense experience with top mentors. There’s a maturity to the wines, a lack of flashiness. They go to the heart of things swiftly. So, there’s a certain refinement. There’s a little reduction, too, […]

Frederick Stevenson Grenache 2023
$35.00An awesome Barossa Grenache that stands apart from the pack. A compote of sweet red fruits layered with orange peel, earth, alpine herbs and sweet spice. Curvy and energetic, it carries a surprising sense of lightness despite its richness. Firm, fine tannins and a savoury edge bring tension and shape, pulling everything into focus. Distinctive, […]

Crawford River Cabernet Sauvignon 2019
$70.00Bright ruby. Opens with a core of pure blackcurrant cabernet fruit together with scents of cedar, violets and a very gentle leafiness. The palate is youthful, refined and persistent and the tannins are silky yet long chained. It all adds up to a wine that, while good now, will age effortlessly over the next eight […]

Thistledown Thorny Devil Grenache 2023
$35.00From several districts, off old, dry-grown bush vines. The ferments are all nuanced, but all are wild, and there is always some whole bunch; maturation for eight months in old French oak. Pale in hue and pretty in fragrance, such is the vintage. Flavours skip through cranberry, wild raspberry, pomegranate and rose, with white pepper […]

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, […]

Crawford River Cabernets 2024

This is medium bodied, with good depth of fruit together with firm, chalky tannins that, while balanced, will need some time to ameliorate. 93+ Points – Philip Rich, Halliday […]

Rich, deep and full bodied, a compote of black, blue and red fruits, with well integrated oak spice. Glossy and silky, the tannins cascading and very fine. A wine to buy a dozen bottles of, as there is […]

La Petite Mort Saperavi 2022
$42.00Without doubt, the finest Saperavi in Australia. Made traditionally in Amphorae, left on skins for 180 days and a small dash of Sulphur the only addition. Yet despite this, the tannins are silky and the fruit vivid and fresh. Deeper than the 2020, brooding, with blackberry, mulberry, plum, blackcurrant and raspberry. There’s a ferrous element […]

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 […]

Paralian Blewitt Springs Grenache Shiraz 2024
$35.0060/40% Marmont vineyard grenache/Paralian-owned Springs Hill vineyard shiraz. The most fruit-forward and ‘primal’ barrels are selected for this. This is delightfully upper mid-weight, joyously fragrant and supple, redolent of cherry juice, roses in bloom, musk, sumac, cinnamon, the gently creeping darker fruit and spice of shiraz latterly joining the grenache lead, adding a little growl […]
