Chacra Chardonnay 2022
$215.00Out of Stock
This is probably the finest answer to Puligny or Meursault in Argentina and it will be hard to pass by. Beautiful brioche notes give a fine creaminess with mineral, fine reduction, beeswax and a hint of white sesame to the lemon curd. Extremely textured and tense on the palate with fresh, medium acidity and a […]

Sailor Seeks Horse Chardonnay 2020
$60.002020 was a tiny vintage at Sailor Seeks Horse in the Huon Valley, yielding just 2 t/ha. But the long, cool growing season has produced wonderful Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. Wines of elegance and finesse; structure and complexity. And very limited. “With high natural acidity we decided to put a few more of the […]

Gerard Duplessis Chablis 1er Cru Vaillons 2019
$125.00The 2019 Vaillons is currently enjoying its passage in the wood. Clear pale and bright. This is very classical, and has not picked up the wood until perhaps filling out the finish, though it hasn’t become too fleshy. Gives extra structure and length when well handled, as this is. 91-93 points – Jasper Morris 1.5 […]

Sylvain Pataille Marsannay Blanc 2020

A nose short of bravo!” Bill Nanson, Burgundy Report 100% Chardonnay. This Marsannay village wine comes from five parcels, including Les Larreys, Clos du Roy and En Blungey, as well as fruit from newly planted vines in Couchée. […]

Patrick Sullivan Woori Yallock Chardonnay 2022
$65.00Out of Stock
One of the greatest upper Yarra vineyards, its coolness coupled with rich soil make for compelling chardonnays. Initially restrained, but with coaxing reveals gardenia, kiwifruit, marzipan, gin herbs, mandarin, brioche and zest of lemon and lime. Incredibly rich and full bodied. Utterly luxurious, with a feathered pillow palate, soft, yet firm. Concentrated with a deep […]

Patrick Sullivan Bull Swamp Chardonnay 2022
$85.00Out of Stock
The bold and the beautiful. Sexy aromatics of spring jasmine, sunflower, pumpkin seed, citrus peel, breadcrumbs and mixed spice. So chardonnay, yet quixotic. Tense and coiled, with a ridge of green apple, flavours tumbling either side. White peach, nectarine, ruby grapefruit, mandarin, preserved citrus and tabouli. A tension of opposites, reserved for only the world’s […]

Chateau des Bachelards Beaujolais Blanc 2021
$70.00Just 3 barrels made of the defining white of the appellation. Unlike Burgundy, or indeed the reds of Beaujolais, the whites of the region are not stratified and do not carry a singular identity. This is old school chardonnay, the likes made in Burgundy 20 years ago. Rich and full bodied with extended lees ageing […]

Patrick Sullivan Black Sands Chardonnay 2022
$50.00Light-medium straw colour; aromas of poached peach, melon skin, a note of freshly sliced almond. Citron also. The wine is broad and concentrated in the front of the mouth, the finish dropping away just a little early, and leaving a faintly bitter echo from phenolics. Possibly some skin ferment? A left-field style, and pretty smart […]

Bachelet-Monnot Chassagne-Montrachet 2021
$230.00Pale lemon yellow. The bouquet is discreet, suggesting medium density of correctly ripe fruit. There is a little more body underneath, with quite complex aromatics, a touch of spice overlying a bed of white fruit. Citrus appears lightly at the very end. Looking good! Drink from 2024-2028. 89-91 points, Jasper Morris MW – Inside Burgundy […]

$125.001.5 hect across 4 parcels. Minots, Chatains, Epinottes and Vaillons. Average age of 60 years old. All parcels vinified separately then blended before bottling. Across the 1er Cru’s this wine is often seemingly the most ‘exotic’, perhaps not in terms of weight but aromatics.

Gembrook Hill Chardonnay 2022
$50.002022 was a cooler, later vintage, perfect for the Gembrook Hill style, of purity, restraint and elegance. Singular in style, with the weight, length and silky texture of Chablis. The flavours though are entirely unique, combining essence of grapefruit, white flowers, kiwifruit, lime and white peach. The balance and tension of elements is incredible, a […]

Bachelet-Monnot Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Referts 2020

The fruit starts to come out, indeed offering excellent depth of fruit, some yellow plums but still fresh, plenty of weight behind and good length.” 91-94 points, Jasper Morris MW, Inside Burgundy “The 2020 Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Referts has a crisp, precise, gunflint-tinged bouquet […]
