Chantereves Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Les Tuyaux 2021
$200.00The Chanterêves team has been purchasing fruit from Les Tuyaux since 2019. This small plot of 60-year-old vines is located at the northern end of the appellation, next to Aux Herbues on the border between Vosne-Romanee and Nuits-Saint-Georges. Soils are relatively deep, stony and light in colour. Chanterêves’ Nuits-Saint-Georges wines always look more Vosne in […]

Joshua Cooper Shay’s Flat Cabernet Sauvignon 2022
$75.00There aren’t too many truly distinct wines in Australia, made from classical varieties, but Josh Cooper’s cabernet based wines from Victoria taste like no others. Super complex aromatics of cassis, blackberry, mulberry, tobacco, soy, lavender and hints of red fruits. Pure translucent and mineral. Medium bodied, some cola, black olive, gooseberry and a compote of […]

Thibaud Boudignon Rose de Loire 2022
$55.00Beautiful copper colour. Perfumed nose of blackcurrant violets, raspberry, saltbush and smoke. Deep, concentrated, mineral and savoury. Ruby grapefruit, firm snuffbox peach, fennel, sage and pulpy passionfruit. Very long finish, with a squeeze of that peach offering the faintest of texture and grip. A bright, clear and pure journey. Waters Wine Co Substantially Cabernet Franc […]

Thibaud Boudignon Savennières Clos de la Hutte 2020
$275.00”The 2020 Clos de la Hutte is a wine that makes your shoulders drop such is its tranquility and sense of comfort in your mouth. It blooms in the mouth and does so without any sense of heaviness. The finish, scented with flowers and nectarines, is long, fragrant and textural. I hate using the word […]

Clos Mogador Priorat Tinto 2020
$220.00The 2020 Clos Mogador comes from a very challenging vintage in Priorat, a year with lots of rain and some fungus problems that are very unusual in the zone, which is usually very healthy. They bought a further four hectares so they could keep the volume despite the difficulties with mildew. The wine is more […]

Domaine Didier Dagueneau Vin de France Pur Sang 2019
$290.00“What I love most about the 2019 Pur Sang is its focus and precision; the compact, light bodied core carries masses of fragrance across the palate and beyond on the long finish. There’s clarity and freshness, with a thread of acidity and minerality pulling the wine through like a needle and thread. It is starting […]

Theo Dancer Vin de France Jurassique Savagnin 2021
$210.00Emphasising purity and terroir rather than flor-aging notes, this is Savagnin ouillé sourced from the fossil-rich marl soils of L’Étoile, in Jura’s southwest. The grapes were pressed and put directly into large oak barrels. The resulting wine is superb. So fine, racy and delicious with lovely texture and a gorgeous, tangy close. Drive, length and finesse; this […]

Weiser-Kunstler Trabener Gaispfad Riesling 2018
$85.00Generally preferring sweeter styled Mosel wines, it’s always a thrill to love the unexpected. Immensely complex, deep and brooding with aromas of gooseberry, kiwi, lime, ruby grapefruit, spring jasmine smoke and earth. Absorbing and immense, it’s hard to grasp the sheer depth and breadth of this wine, yet without heaviness or unnecessary structure. Silkily textured, […]

Sylvain Pataille Marsannay La Charme Aux Pretres 2019
$235.00Outstanding. Top Value. This is also decidedly restrained and offers only glimpses of the spiced citrus peel and green apple aromas. The rich, full-bodied and intense medium weight flavors are at once caressing yet powerful on the impressively long and saline-suffused finish. This too is very good for its level. 88-91 points, Allen Meadows, Burghound […]
