Dagueneau Jurancon Les Jardins de Babylone Moelleux 2016
$385.00The 2016 is equally stunning but far more youthful and therefore, more delicate and discrete than the 2015. It’s a vibrantly racy wine with mixed citrus and fresh-cut apple notes and a juicy, vibrant close. Both vintages are Germanic in style, less so dessert wines but more for drinking throughout the meal (the way you […]

J&S Fielke Blanc de Blancs 2024
$50.00This spends time in older oak. It’s a fine-boned and yet flavoursome sparkling wine that shows off some very pleasing saline minerality and nutty savouriness in a tight frame of green apple crunch, citrus freshness, fuzzy peach notes and a prettiness of sugared almonds and halva sweet-savoury characters. Bubbles are tight, the wine almost vinous […]

Bannockburn Serre Pinot Noir 2025
$109.00Serré, planted in 1984 and certified organic in 2021, is the oldest high-density vineyard planting in Australia. The vineyard was inspired by Stuart Hooper’s love of the great wines of Burgundy, and its tight spacing, low trellising and low-yielding vines combined with the uniqueness of our place in the world, contribute to produce wines of […]

Joshua Cooper Dash Farms Chardonnay 2025

Bicknell FC Lance Close Planted Pinot Noir 2025
$85.00100% destemmed and matured in a mixture of seasoned barriques, hogsheads and puncheons. Exceptionally fragrant, with aromas of wild strawberry, perfectly ripe red cherry, floral notes and alpine herbs such as wild thyme and gentian.

Daosa Late Disgorged Blanc de Blancs 2017
$175.00Sparkling or Champagne that spends this amount of time on lees, 90 months in this case, can have too much savouriness and leesy-ness, without enough freshness or fruit. However, the Daosa Blanc de Blancs is gorgeous, mineral, generous and intense, without any loss of freshness or fruit profile. It’s a remarkable feat in sparkling winemaking […]

Jasper Hill Emily’s Paddock Shiraz 2024

Inky dark purple and dense in hue – a Heathcote trademark. Taut and focused, far more than its ’24 sibling; Emily isn’t going anywhere too soon. Rather, it’s got time on its […]

Alex Moreau Chassagne Montrachet 2023
$270.00“A completely different aromatic profile presents notes of petrol, rosemary oil and white-fleshed fruit scents. There is notably better density and volume to the attractively textured medium weight flavors that display fine length on the balanced finale. This does need to develop better depth but that should reasonably occur if given a chance. Worth checking […]

Laurent Tribut Chablis 2023
$130.00This vibrant and dynamic village Chablis explodes with aromas of lime peel, passion fruit and greengage plums adorned with acacia blossoms and chalky minerality. The feel is racy and bright, but there is substance here as well. This wine will be crisp and approachable on release but will profit from mid-term ageing in the cellar. […]

Bicknell FC Lance Old Vine Cabernet Sauvignon 2024

Mulberry fruit and leaf, cassis, cedar, rubbed rosemary. It’s the lithesome way it moves that excites. 142 dozen made. 12.7% alcohol. 97 points – Nick Ryan, The […]
