Hochkirch Tarrington Vineyards Chardonnay 2020
$52.00Every wine from Hochkirch sits on a plane of extraordinary quality and great value. Beyond the tension, detail and sensual complexity, is a texturally beautiful, intricate and woven wine, all the threads coming together yet somehow separate. The 2020 Tarrington Vineyards Chardonnay is perfection and I defy anyone who says they don’t like Chardonnay not […]

Nocturne SR Chardonnay 2020
$35.00Gosh, it’s all going on! Yellow peach, buttered popcorn, lime, struck match and some oak spice. It feels rich, and there’s good tension, with a satiny feel that firms up a little as the wine glides through the mouth. Slightly mineral and saline to close. Waters Wine Co. The grapes were harvested by hand and […]

Giant Steps Wombat Creek Vineyard Chardonnay 2019
$50.00There’s striking freshness of lemon and yellow grapefruit here with a chalky, stony, flinty edge. The fresh fruit carries subtly spicy oak nicely. There are grapefruit and fresh yellow-peach flavors in abundance. This carries energetic, acidity-fueled drive and delivers impressive balance, as well as length. So long and juicy. Drink or hold. 97 Points, James […]

Holyman Chardonnay 2020
$60.00There are stone fruits and reduction on the nose while the palate is slightly creamier than usual which makes for a whole mouthful of wine. The finish is long and structured, finishing with our signature fresh natural acidity. Winemaker’s Notes 100% Estate grown from 34 year-old vines on a 0.75Ha block. Non irrigated vines, low […]

Giant Steps Sexton Vineyard Chardonnay 2020
$58.00Malty, lanolin, raw almond aromas, delicate, refined, subtle and beautifully balanced. Tastes quite different to a Gingin clone wine from, say, Margaret River. Intense, very fine and long and there’s a gentle grip on the finish that helps cleanse the aftertaste. 93 Points – Huon Hooke, The Real Review

Eleni & Edouard Vocoret Chablis Le Bas de Chapelot 2019
$88.00Very pale colour. Currently a sulphur addition is slightly killing the nose. I am not worried on that score as the wine on the palate is absolutely astounding. There is more fruit than the previous two, a lively greener touch, with exceptional weight right across the palate. Huge length. I am astonished by this as […]

Giant Steps Tarraford Chardonnay 2020
$58.00A soft, delicate, restrained wine with aromas of white flowers and a whiff of almond meal. Cashew-nutty too. A more straightforward style and a trifle short on the finish compared to other vineyards. It’s remarkably backward and restrained considering it’s the lowest altitude vineyard and earliest harvested. 92 Points – Huon Hooke, The Real Review […]

Domaine Gueguen Chablis 2019
$48.00The 2019 Chablis Village comes from 40-year-old vines and sees around 6 months on the fine lees. It has an attractive, quite voluminous bouquet of linden, freshly squeezed orange juice and light green apple notes. The palate is well balanced with a slightly sappy opening, plenty of red apple and touches of nectarine and subtle […]
