Castle Rock Porongurup Estate Riesling 2023

A flagship wine for the brand which they have been making since 1986. So it’s no surprise they have absolutely NAILED it once again. It’s almost like what freshly bathed baby skin smells like, pure and immaculate. Apple blossoms, white nectarine and lychee. Greengage plums, lime pith and quartz. Slippery and nimble on the palate […]

Traviarti Rosso 2023
$35.00Out of Stock
A very different expression this year, 2023 being cool and wet; rounder, softer and juicier. Blackberry, cassis, plum, dark cherry and raspberry, with a savoury squeeze of fennel, bay leaf and dried flowers. Is there an evolution in style, or is it the vintage? I’m thinking the latter. The more gentle structure a product of […]

Scarborough Yellow Label Chardonnay 2021
$29.00The Scarborough Yellow Label Chardonnay is our house white here on Sydney’s northern beaches. Irrespective of vintage, the wine offers consistency and great value. The style has always been on the richer spectrum, but over recent years, more detail and extra freshness has crept in. Quite frankly, the Yellow Label has never been better. Fermented […]

Fattoria Rodano Chianti Classico 2019
$40.00The style of the Rodáno Chianti bottlings is traditional, with Sangiovese playing a dominant role in all of the estate’s various bottlings. The Chianti Classico (a blend of 90% Sangiovese with 5% each of Colorino and Canaiolo) is aged entirely in large Slovenian “botte,” and the Riserva is a combination of these large casks and a small […]

Colome Estate Malbec 2021
$45.00Colome’s Estate Malbec is always an exquisite colour and 2021 is no exception – deep, bright red with a magenta hue.

Fresh and fruity on the palate with crisp acidity and velvety […]

Hochkirch Syrah 2021
$50.00The 2017 was the first Hochkirch Syrah we tasted. Revelatory; unique and detailed, we simply could not believe this was an Australian wine. The 2021 is a little deeper, with slightly darker blackberry fruit, structure, fine detail, gamey notes, freshness and a compelling herbal and spicy lift. Very fine, moreish and refreshing. Waters Wine Co […]

Yangarra Shiraz 2020
$35.00This wine has shapeshifted nicely over the years, segueing from a fruit-forward iteration to a more streamlined, taut and spicy expression. Mid weighted, savoury and highly suggestive of the northern Rhône. Aromas of mace, clove, dill pickle, salumi and spiced cherry. Yet there is nothing hard to the tannins or too challenging for those seeking […]

La Battistelle Montesei Soave Classico 2022
$32.00Aromatically complex, every sniff revealing something new. White flowers, marjoram, white peach, lemon and melon. Delicate palate, light almost, but with pulpy fruit. For all its lightness, the wine has terrific personality, the flavours clear and precise and a structure that is entirely wrapped up by the fruits, flowers and spice. Absolute lunch perfection.

Domaine de Marcoux Vin de France Raisin de Loup NV
$35.00Hands down, the best value bistro wine we have tasted from anywhere. Sweet and tangy compote of red, blue and black fruits. Super bright palate, juicy, with gentle spice, refreshing acidity, silky mouthfeel and a squeeze of powdery tannins. Utterly drinkable, versatile and there’s a serious side too. Absolute bargain.

Holly’s Garden Pinot Gris 2022
$30.00Stunning contemporary pinot gris. Pear, apple, honeysuckle, apricot and savoury spice. Medium bodied, but packed with presence and flavour, I love that this has not been taken too far. There’s a feeling of restraint despite the abundance. Some creamy notes, custard almost, that reminds me of apple pie, with some rhubarb thrown in for good […]

La Battistelle ‘Battistelle’ Soave Classico 2021
$40.00Despite being a single vineyard and not a blend like the Montesei, there are similarities. Wildly complex, with white flowers, honeysuckle, lemon zest, grapefruit, white peach, orchard fruits and mustard seed. Deep and focused with greater amplitude and a peacocks tail of flavour and texture. The palate is at once succulent and light on its […]

Bondar Junto GSM 2022
$30.00A great makeup of majority grenache (62%) with a smattering of shiraz, mataro and cinsault, reminiscent of a classic southern Rhône blend, albeit, with a lighter touch. As good, too. Effusive blue- and red-fruit allusions teem along rails of gentle tannins, a burr of whole-bunch spice as seasoning. A sweep of maritime salinity at the […]

Massolino Moscato D’Asti 2022 (375ml)
$30.00Massolino’s Moscato has long been a benchmark example of the style, but it’s only produced in tiny quantities. Drawn from hand-harvested grapes, a good portion of the vines are rooted in the prime calcareous soils of Serralunga. Massolino’s Moscato is more savoury and complex than the more typical examples. As always, this is bursting with […]

Walsh & Sons Lola 2021
$28.00One of the best value wine’s we have tasted in a very long time. A blend of Syrah, Cabernet and Grenache, the blend might seem unlikely, but it works tremendously. Plenty to smell here; dried flowers, blackcurrant, plum, raspberry and spice. Ample palate, that coats the mouth in flavour, but without any heaviness or astringency. […]

Granite Hills Riesling 2022
$30.00If you could open a wine that typifies what’s best about Australian Riesling, this would be it. Add to this the caveat of best value, and this would be it again. Expressive, intense and powerful, with flavours of lemon, lime, zest, grapefruit and minerals. Such an attack of flavour and presence, acidity in lockstep. Ripeness […]

CRFT Whisson Lake Pinot Noir 2021
$45.00I’m not sure if there’s a better pinot noir vineyard in the Adelaide Hills, but I doubt it. I love the fact that for all the comparisons with Burgundy, the pinots from Whisson Lake are entire unto themselves. Soaring aromatics of rhubarb, spiced plum, cranberry, cherry, geranium, lavender and star anise. Voluptuous curvy palate. Mouth […]

Mesh Eden Valley Riesling 2023
$35.00Mesh is a collaboration between Yalumba’s Robert Hill Smith and Jeffrey Grosset, two of Australia’s greatest riesling producers. Typical of the vintage, the 2021 has that extra level of concentration. White flowers, mandarin oil, lemon zest and juicy ripe limes. Texturally, there is a chalky/salty mineral feel, that really lifts the finish. Precise, elegant, detailed […]

Polperro Estate Pinot Gris 2022
$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, […]

Mullineux Syrah 2018
$65.00South Africa has an uncanny knack of producing Syrah’s at a price and quality, that should embarrass just about the rest of the world. Serve this in a pinot noir glass. Intense bouquet of black, red and hedge fruits, with lavender, Asian spices and cumquat. Vivid, supple and expansive palate, so soft in the mouth, […]

$30.00Made from mostly Garganega, with Trebbiano providing aromatic lift and structure. Quite succulent for a Soave, and softer, broader than the Classico. Melon, almonds, frangipani, lemon, apricot and white peach. Very easy to drink, with a perfect tension of zing and gentle texture to match with food, or not, it really doesn’t matter.
