Arnot-Roberts Sonoma Coast Syrah 2021
$130.00Out of Stock
Tasting 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 […]

Fletcher Barbaresco Faset Cru 2021
$145.002019 was the first year David has bottled Faset as a single Cru. David describes Faset has an ‘unparalleled richness’, a trait shared due to the similar soils with Asili, Rabaja and Rio Sordo.
