Lambert Wines Nebbiolo 2022
$80.00Out of Stock
“For what I want from a wine, nebbiolo ticks every box,” says Lambert. “But it’s the ultimate challenge for a winemaker. The winemaking itself is relatively easy, but the variety is so fickle: you have to adapt your farming to the site where it’s grown, and it has such a long growing season. There are so […]

Swinney Syrah 2021
$45.00Shiraz/Syrah and Australia. It just works. The 2021 is quiet different from previous releases; rounder in shape, ample with finer, lacier tannins.

Plush, without any sense of heaviness, a triumph of a […]

$35.00Out of Stock
A taste of Gembrook Hill’s quality and style, but not from their vineyards. Classic Yarra Valley pinot notes.

Swinney Mourvedre 2021
$45.00An underappreciated variety in Australia, but I have no doubt that we will soon be tasting a Farvie Mourvedre, based on the quality of this bottle. Classic aromatics of smokey, earthy, campfire, camphor and dark fruits. Again in 2021 the shape is so different from previous vintages, rounder and somehow a little bit grander. But […]
