Mac Forbes Gembrook Village Pinot Noir 2022
$65.00The deepest, and most brooding of the range, yet curiously with the sweetest fruit profile. Sweet English strawberry and raspberry, kirsch and sweet Middle Eastern spices. Fascinating palate, due to its chalky, savoury, pithy and mineral profile, awash with sweet red fruits. Tertiary notes of herb, spice and compost are very subtle, but will no […]

By Farr Shiraz 2021
$100.00Pinot noir and chardonnay are what we would usually associate with the Farr family, but their shiraz is amongst Australia’s best and most singular; a great site expression. Rich, concentrated, seamless and controlled. Extremely complex and with a flavour profile all it’s own. Smoked paprika, red capsicum, curry leaf and fenugreek counter the compote of […]

Cascina delle Rose Mixed Pack
$549.00 Per case of 6A few words from Ned Goodwin MW on the vintages: “2019 is the first of a triumvirate of very good vintages, following the forward, frisky and imminently approachable 2018’s. To make recent comparisons, 2019 is dense of extract with a bulwark of firm, marked tannins. It is frequently compared to 2013, by others to 2016. […]

Savage Thief in the Night 2021
$55.00The Thief in the Night cuvee is a wine that increasingly pushes the solo message of premium Grenache despite still having minor blend components of 7.5% Syrah and 6.5% Cinsault, the ‘salt and pepper’ of the wine. This beautifully pristine Piekenierskloof Grenache from dry farmed bush vines grown on sandstone soils underwent spontaneous fermentation with […]

Paralian Blewitt Springs Grenache Shiraz 2020
$36.0062/38% grenache/shiraz, a blend from 2 sites. 16yo puncheons of each and a single barrique of grenache. An homage to the likes of d’Arry’s Original, apparently. I grew up drinking that. Here, a less-is-more approach. A full-weighted mouthfeel, rich of flavour and yet, savoury, fresh and effortlessly detailed without being overly complicated. Bracken, kirsch and […]

Laughing Jack Greenock Shiraz 2019
$50.00Terrific rendition of Greenock Creek’s rich and opulent flavours. Full bodied, with black fruits, some sweet raspberry, sumac, cinnamon and wood spice. Round in shape, it’s not heavy and is surprisingly light on it’s feet. Despite all the apparent presence and flavour, there’s a youthful brightness, conveyed by the fine, soft tannins. Lovely focus and […]

Chantereves Savigny-les-Beaune Dessus de Montchenevoy 2021
$170.00Le Dessus de Montchenevoy is located above the famed Savigny 1er Cru Aux Guettes. It’s a west-facing site on white soils that sits at an altitude of 350 metres and is surrounded by trees.

Yeringberg Shiraz 2018
$85.00Always the most overtly structured of the Yeringberg offerings, the 2018 vintage Shiraz has a tannic presence rarely seen in Australia. Medium bodied, tightly wound, and needing vigorous coaxing, when it does finally appear, the intensity of entry is worth the wait. Gripping the mouth with firm, coating tannins offering red fruits, blueberry, lavender, camphor, […]

Vanguardist Mourvedre 2022
$65.00About as refined as you could imagine, with immense detail, poise, balance and beautiful texture. Like the Grenache this is very aromatic, but with black, briary and red fruits, flecked with potpourri, black olive and garrigue herbs. The tertiary element is in no way rustic and at the forefront is perfectly ripe, cool fruit. Texturally […]

MMAD Grenache 2022

About 15% whole bunches, fermented in wood and steel, maturation in concrete and large old French oak. Unlike the 2022 shiraz, this takes time to emerge from the glass. It’s all there, though.

Collemattoni Rosso do Montalcino 2020
$45.00A defining traditional Brunello producer, Collemattoni’s wines offer a magical tension of lightness and power, pure fruit and earthy/meaty/herbal savouriness. Made from 100% Sangiovese and aged for 14 months in Slovenian oak, the ageing has burred some of Sangiovese’s angular structure, without sacrificing any brightness or energy. Tangy and pure with fruits of blackberry, cassis, […]

Ca Matta Valpolicella Classico 2020
$35.00If I had to show a Valpolicella, a bottle that was a classic and typical example of the region, then it would have to be from Ca Matta. A classic blend of 70% Corvina, 25% Rondinella and 5% Molinara e Rebo and at only 12.5% alcohol, this looks tastes and feels like times past. Violets, […]

Gilbert Pinot Noir 2022
$35.00So often too lean or too worked, Orange pinot noir has hit a sweet spot with Gilbert’s 2022. Pretty and floral, with savoury spices, hedge fruits, and tangy rhubarb, plum and English strawberry. Packed with flavour, mineral; lithe and sleek. It’s not silky, there’s too much texture, and for all its lightness, there’s plenty of […]

Yangarra Shiraz 2021
$35.00From the Blewitt Springs single-vineyard estate on sand and ironstone soils. It wasn’t entirely a surprise that McLaren Vale’s first-among-equals winery should have made this gorgeously succulent wine, but I couldn’t help but consulting the thesaurus to be sure ‘succulent’ covered the field. The entry reads: ‘juicy, moist, luscious, soft, tender, mouth-watering, appetising, flavoursome, tasty, […]

Te Mata Awatea Cabernet Merlot 2019

The wine is soft-textured and medium to full-bodied, elegant and pure, seamless and long. An utterly delicious cabernet blend. 95 Points – Huon […]

Eisenstone Ebenezer Shiraz 2021
$85.00A brighter and more floral creation. Even though it has the Eisenstone signature traits of earth-driven, blackcurrant and black cherry fruit, there are lighter moments and a smoother texture here, which means you can crack on relatively soon, which is a bonus! I think this cuvée gives me a few extra hints about what might […]
