Adelina Watervale Riesling 2020
Add to cart$23.00in any six
$26.00 per single bottle
As always, the 2020 Watervale hails from the Gully View vineyard, which is on red loamy clay over limestone. This is the vineyard that historically supplied Leo Buring, once the maker of Australia’s greatest Rieslings. The fruit is de-stemmed and crushed before pressing, the free-run juice then settled, racked and fermented. Col halted the ferment […]

Belle-Mare is the new southern french ‘value’ range bought in by renowned Australian importer, Andrew Guard. Expect some delicious wines, made from sustainably grown grapes, with little to no adjustment, that are big on personality.

Distinctly spicy, ginger and that, green apple and lime, light powdery texture, positive acidity, though it feels soft and comely in a way, juice and zest and length as it goes. Excellent.

$31.00 per single bottle

No malo and 10 months on lees in barrel before bottling. This is […]

Ben Haines Chardonnay 2019
Add to cart$29.00in any six
$33.00 per single bottle
Briarty Hill in Gruyere. Picked early. Full malolactic. Older puncheons. These new releases from Ben Haines are excellent. So individual. So different. A bit quirky, and beautifully made. Cue ‘My Way’. It’s saline, with a nutty sake-like and roast chicken umami quality, some lemon curd richness, a softness, but with fine acidity threaded through, something […]

La Petite Vanguard Riesling 2019
Add to cart$29.00in any six
$33.00 per single bottle
Churinga vineyard, western side, foudre, a little skin contact, full malolactic fermentation. So don’t expect to taste a ‘normal’ Clare Valley Riesling. More like a skinsy oxidative Italian white, as a point of reference. And don’t serve it too cold either. Tangerine, honey with ginger, mint, wax, lemon juice, and all manner of complexities that […]

La Petite Vanguard Grenache 2019

$33.00 per single bottle
“The final wine sees around 70% whole bunch, some carbonic, some more traditional. Old 500L puncheons housed the wine for about 8 months post press, before the final wine was blended and sent to bottle without fining or filtration.” Blewitt Springs. 180 dozen produced. A musk perfume over red berry, meaty and spicy too, peanut […]

100% Chardonnay for this outstanding sparkling wine which has been aged on lees for 3 years. Bright, green-tinged silver. High-pitched, intensely mineral aromas of white flowers, lime zest and white pepper convey striking clarity and vivacity. Expansive citrus and pear on the palate, but with excellent focus and lift thanks to spice, mineral and tangy […]

$41.00 per single bottle
Gloriously bright vibrant cherry-red in the glass. On the nose, classically seductive Sangiovese aromas of fresh red cherries and sweet tobacco with a very complex lingering perfume.

Felton Road Bannockburn Riesling 2019
Add to cart$38.00in any six
$42.00 per single bottle
Delicately luscious Riesling that builds a delicious tension between sweetness and mouth-tingling acidity that helps emphasise the wine’s mandarin, wildflower, lime, citrus and chalky-mineral flavours. I’m guilty of buying earlier vintages in quantity to see how they develop, but find the wine so irresistible it’s usually gone within a year of purchase. Fortunately, I have […]

Rikard Pinot Noir 2018
Add to cart$40.00in any six
$44.00 per single bottle
Rikard’s more feminine style of Pinot Noir, produced to be aromatic and pretty with soft, elegant red-fruit flavours. Multilayered and approachable young, with an emphasis on the primary fruit. Underneath, this wine is serious at heart and will evolve with age into a dark, broody Pinot Noir.

$55.00 per single bottle
Deep red/purple, glass-staining, with a shy but deep bouquet, which is latent and full of promise. Underlying spices, a core of sweet ripe cherry fruit, the tannins soft and full on the finish, adding structure and length. Spices and graphite. A superb wine with a big future. Needs time for the full payoff. 96 points […]

Blewitt Springs, and the lowest crop in 50 years, says winemaker and extra on Vikings, Michael Corbett. A little more whole bunch this year, and elevage for 14 months in 2200L Slavonian casks, from Italy, being a new thing. This is a superb wine. It’s fresh and distinctly mineral, yet deep and concentrated. So alive. […]

Bindi Kostas Rind Chardonnay 2019

$66.00 per single bottle
A more relaxed feel to Kostas Rind from this release. Lots of interest, just this textural feel that I haven’t seen for a while. Lovely stuff. Supple and mellow in its vibe but dances with its light and lacy flavours and pretty scents. Lots of just-ripe stone fruit, lemon balm, soft talc-like minerally characters, faint […]

100% Sangiovese from the famed Viacosta vineyard – organically grown grapes, hand tended vines, hand harvested, fermented with natural yeasts and aged in large neutral botte grande (foudre). This is another superb wine; though this is exclusively from their Viacosta parcel; it is overall more concentrated than the wine above. From an exceptionally good vintage […]

Attractive aroma with floral and berry notes that repeat on the palate and are joined by ripe stems, dried herb and spicy oak flavours. Quite a firmly-structured pinot with peppery tannins and obvious cellaring potential. Good intensity and a lingering finish. A distinctive wine with a character all of its own. 96 points – Bob […]

Moreau-Naudet Chablis 2018

$80.00 per single bottle
Diam. Moreau’s Villages wine is drawn from 20 to 30-year-old vineyards in Préhy and Courgis, in the south of Chablis. The fruit is subject to a very gentle four-hour press, and the juice is fermented with natural yeasts (a rarity in Chablis). Like the Petit Chablis, this is raised mostly in tank—it’s not until the Vieilles Vignes level and above […]

$80.00 per single bottle
Light to mid-yellow colour, and a reductive smoky nose at first, joined by rich honeyed floral and fruit aromas, the richness of the wine undercut by bright acidity and the finish clean and refreshing. The aftertaste is very long and the acidity mouthwatering. A gorgeous wine. (75 g/l sweetness). Drink 2020-2035. 96 Points – Huon Hooke therealreview.com

Made from various vineyards grown on soils with differing degrees of clay and limestone. This is not an oxidised example. The 2018 Patchwork Chardonnay is matured in French oak, 10% new on lees for 12 months. Very Burgundian, a dead ringer for a Premier Cru Puligny Montrachet. Lovely expression of white flowers, citrus, stone fruits, […]
