Thierry Glantenay Bourgogne Rouge 2018
$75.002018 is one of our favourite Burgundy vintages, with richness, structure, bright fruit and refreshing acidities. A turning point vintage for many Bourgogne rouges, so often expensive and underwhelming. Thierry Glantenay’s Bourgogne Rouge is a case in point, with a luxury of fruit and suavity of style unimaginable 5 years ago. There is a extra […]

Michel Lafarge Passetoutgrain L’Exception 2018
$55.00One of our favourite styles, sadly unfashionable. Soaring, as always, with red fruit and berry compote with a dusting of vanilla. So lively and fresh, more succulence than the 2017 and slightly more tannins. Acidity is incredible, present from the moment it hits the tongue, all the way to the finish. We love this wine. […]
