Domaine Larue Puligny Montrachet Le Trezin 2021
$220.00Le Trezin is a Puligny Montrachet village Lieu Dit from the top of the incline, perched above the Premier Crus of Champ Gain & La Garenne and south of 1er Cru Sous le Puits. The last vineyard to be picked by Larue due to the cooler terrior. Always a tight style when young but delightful in the same way because […]

Clos Mogador Com Tu Montsant 2021
$135.00There is a change in image in the 2021 Com Tu, a village red from La Figuera in Montsant, with a label that is similar to the one from the new rosé, a drawing of the village. They used a high percentage of full clusters, and it matured in an old 5,000-liter foudre for one […]

Rings Kallstadter Steinacker Pinot Noir 2020
$130.00The grapes are harvested by hand, sorted again in the winery and destemmed. Without pumping, the grapes go into their wooden fermentation vats, the “cuvees”, with a proportion of whole grapes that have not been destemmed. After a short maceration period, the mash ferments spontaneously with natural yeasts. Matured in new and used barriques, filled unfiltered.

Arnot-Roberts Sonoma Coast Syrah 2021
$130.00Tasting sixty-odd American wines recently, the ’21 Arnot-Roberts Sonoma Coast Syrah was hands down my favourite. Sensual aromatics of sweet dark and red fruits, lavender, whole bunch spice and kirsch. 100% whole bunch is hard to imagine, as they in no way dominate or overpower the fruit. Juicy, sweet and tangy fruit – texturally the […]

Schafer-Frohlich Halenberg Riesling GG 2021
$185.0098-99 points Stephan Reinhardt (Wine Advocate): “The 2021 Halenberg GG offers a deep, pure, fresh and aromatic yet also rich and intense bouquet with flinty, iodine and plummy aromas but most of all a fascinating purity of darker-toned slate and lime juice aromas. Full-bodied, rich and powerful on the palate, this is a massive, dense […]

Guillot-Broux Genevrieres 2020
$110.00A vineyard long abandoned, replanted to high density in 1983. East facing with a bed of limestone over clay. Subtle, yet soaring aromatics of smoke, peach, acacia honey, grapefruit and gardenia. Tight, tangy and coiled. Focused, precise and deep. Tingling with fresh citrus, zest, orchard fruits, lemon drops and minerals. The fruit is so pristine, […]

Huet Vouvray Le Mont Sec 2021
$115.00“This 2021 Le Mont Sec fills the mouth with pear, pineapple, nectarine and violet flavors. There’s a sense of seduction and succulence through the middle of this wine. The flint and the coolness of the site seem to bring a sense of tension and purpose through this wine, which seduces you then spits you out. […]

Vincent Dauvissat Chablis 1er Cru Vaillons 2019
$590.00Pale lemon. A leaner stricter nose after the comparative opulence of Sécher. Then gorgeous ripe lemon zest, flavours, which fill the mouth then refine to a clean pure long finish. Deep limestone marls here retained enough humidity. Very long, very classic, great wine. 95 Points – Jasper Morris The 2019 Chablis 1er Cru Vaillons is one […]

Luciano Sandrone Barolo Aleste 2017
$295.00Considering some of the casks spent up to 2 months on skins, this is remarkably pure with extremely fine tannins. Compelling aromas of cassis, tar, cherry cola, leather polish, nutmeg, liquorice, cigar box, roses, cherry and violet. Tighter than the Le Vigne, and I prefer this in 2017, although usually Le Vigne gets my nod. […]

Thierry Glantenay Pommard 1er Cru Rugiens 2020

Christian Moreau Grand Cru Clos des Hospices dans Les Clos 2022
$285.00A tiny 0.41 ha strip of vines located at the bottom of Grand Cru Les Clos. More apparent wood is present on the otherwise similar nose.

Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey Corton Charlemagne Grand Cru 2022
$1,325.00Out of Stock
‘I started with this in 2003 and it’s still something of a mystery to me; it’s a grand cru and I pose questions versus the grand crus here but in the end it’s all about interpretations. Always a surprising wine. The logic is the opposite of Bâtard for harvesting – I wait a little to […]

Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey Meursault 2022
$315.00Out of Stock
A blend of Narvaux in purchased grapes, Luchets in young vines which they manage, and Malpoiriers, Fresh pale lemon. The bouquet is very stylish, the refined side of Meursault, but also promising the body one would expect. Surprisingly firm acidity, citrus in style, this wine will benefit from longer elevage. Drink from 2027-2032. (89-92) Jasper […]

Henri Germain Beaune 1er Cru Bressandes 2022

Julian Haart Wintricher Ohligsberg Riesling Spatlese 2022
$165.00Astonishing nose of lilacs, hyacinths and a bunch of flowers that I can’t put names too. The same applies to the incredibly fine and delicate palate that redefines this category of Mosel riesling with unfermented grape sweetness and a stupidly negative reputation. Graceful and quite creamy mid-palate, the enigmatic vibrancy at the finish, all without […]

Julian Haart Goldtropfchen Riesling Spatlese 2023
$165.00Here is all the baroque beauty of this great Goldtröpfchen site. The cornucopia of yellow fruit, berries, flowers and floral honey would demand several paragraphs for an adequate description. Incredible finesse and subtlety on the medium-bodied palate, the wine hopping, skipping and jumping for joy. Then comes the incredible stony power in the compact and […]

Jane Eyre Yarra Valley Pinot Noir 2023
$95.00From a single vineyard planted in the late ’90s; native-yeast ferment with 20% whole bunches; matured in French oak (10% new) for 10 months. The whole bunch adds a crackling component here, an autumnal rustle, which is suffused with fruit as the wine is buoyed with air, redcurrant and wild red cherry unfurling. Carraway, rhubarb, […]

Paul Pillot Bourgogne Blanc 2022
$100.00A beautiful and pure Bourgogne expression. Gardenia, white peach, lemon, tangy apple, cream, and wood spice aromatics. Everything is subtle and poised, a wine of filigreed elegance and delicate finesse. It’s not light by any means, and the fruit hasn’t been forced at all, rather it’s tensioned by gentle acidity, cream, fleshy substance and the […]

David Moreau Santenay Beauregard 1er Cru 2022
$160.00The 2022 Santenay Beauregard ler Cru comes from vines located at a higher altitude, above the windmill overlooking the namesake village on clayey marn soils. This feels quite complex, with raspberry, blackberry and briar scents on the nose and a touch of white pepper and licorice (Moreau dubs it his “little Syrah”). The medium-bodied palate […]

Joshua Cooper Dash Farm Cabernet Sauvignon 2023
$55.00The lightest iteration of Joshua Cooper’s sturdier varietals, but it’s by no means light. Super complex aromatics of lavender, violets, iodine, blueberry, blackberry, blackcurrant, charcoal/coal dust. Tight, coiled lacy and chalky, the skins are tasted and felt. Tannins are firm, receding to chalk and they are ever present, shaping and defining the wine. Interwoven acidity […]

JJ Prum Bernkasteler Badstube Riesling Spatlese 2022
$110.00“This reminds me so much of English hedgerows in summer with their diversity of flowers, berries and herbs. Cool and elegant in spite of the impressive ripeness on the medium-bodied palate. Very polished through the impeccably balanced, subtle finish. Hard to believe that analytically this must have a significant amount of grape sweetness, because it’s […]

David explains that the plot he sources from in Roncaglie is South West facing, a little more shaded so longer hang time & more ferrous soils = Dark fruits, more masculine tannin.
