Domaine de Marcoux Vin de France Raisin de Loup NV
$35.00Hands down, the best value bistro wine we have tasted from anywhere. Sweet and tangy compote of red, blue and black fruits. Super bright palate, juicy, with gentle spice, refreshing acidity, silky mouthfeel and a squeeze of powdery tannins. Utterly drinkable, versatile and there’s a serious side too. Absolute bargain. Waters Wine Co Organic. Marcoux’s […]

Rippon Emma’s Block Pinot Noir 2018
$138.00It’s hard to express, but smells tighter, with some more noticeable oak. Plum, Daphne, creme de cassis, raspberry and brown spice. The structure is more evident than in the Mature Vine and is cooler, cosseted and slightly less expressive. Very long, so persistent with those trademark velvety/chalk tannins that become more firm and morph into […]

$100.00Wonderful intensity, combining the wealth of sweet dark fruits, classic Central Otago, with a high toned coolness and coiled power. Dark cherry, cola, lavender, blackcurrant, blackberry, blood plum and 5 spice. Voluminous palate and head turning presence. Silken texture with a wealth of flavour, buoyant acidity and fine, melting tannins. Benchmark for the region. Waters […]

Domaine de Belliviere Les Arches Raisins Migrateurs 2018
$40.00The Nicolas family has expanded their cellar to accommodate some wines made from purchased fruit, under the Les Arches de Bellivière label. Though southern Rhône is certainly a departure from their Loire roots, in fact Eric Nicolas spent years there training as an oenologist and recently came upon a like-minded, meticulous, biodynamic grower in Ventoux. From […]

Rippon Mature Vine Pinot Noir 2012 Cellar Release
$165.00Direct from the cool dark cellars of Rippon, and at 10 years old this is drinking beautifully. It’s interesting to taste the estate’s DNA, with no perceptible style changes over the years. As always, an expression of vintage, and 2012 is considered great according to Nick Mill, owner/winemaker at Rippon. Red fruits, cherry, plum, strawberry, […]

Domaine de Marcoux Cotes du Rhone Rouge 2019
$50.00The very definition of unforced power, supreme elegance and perfect balance. Intense bouquet of strawberry, raspberry, plum, blueberry, clove and thyme. Silken mouthfeel, sleek and the flavours travelling to the outer reaches of the palate. There’s a buoyancy, in contrast to effortless smoothness, the carry is long and accentuated by Marcoux’s trademark velvet. Tremendous value, […]

Rippon Emma’s Block Pinot Noir 2019
$145.00Emma’s Block is at the bottom of the slope, by the lake, facing east. The soils, like the rest of the estate are of schist. This is a cool site, with winds whipping up off the lake and hitting Emma’s first. Cool and high toned, floral, pretty with more spice and red and briary fruit. […]

$45.0090% Grenache with Syrah/Mourvèdre/Cinsault. Planted in the 1920’s The 2021 Côtes Du Rhône ‘Vieilles Vignes’ which is from very old vines (important with Grenache) literally across the border of the Châteauneuf du Pâpe AOP is by far the best example of this wine that I have seen, like his CNDP above. This is from a […]

Domaine de Marcoux Chateauneauf-du-Pape Rouge 2019
$150.00The stamp of Marcoux is on all their reds, and it’s a delight to taste them together. The flavour and textural profiles are similar, and here we have the pinnacle; deeper, concentrated, woven complexity and lacy structure. Vivid and intense, with an immediate presence. Extremely complex nose of red fruits, brambly fruit, petrichor, campfire, violets […]
