Gembrook Hill Village Pinot Noir 2022
$35.00Out of Stock
A taste of Gembrook Hill’s quality and style, but not from their vineyards. Classic Yarra Valley pinot notes. Sweet red fruits of English strawberry, raspberry, poached plum, violets and hints of fresh compost. There’s something incisive about the aromatics. They’re vibrant, but pointed, the flavours vivid and translucent. Medium to full bodied, plush and built […]

Fighting Gully Road Chardonnay 2022

Moss Wood Cabernet Sauvignon 2020
$135.00“Another simply sublime edition of this great wine. The volume of fruit was down almost 60% but the small berry influence has added even more intensity and depth, if that is possible with this wine. Interesting point of difference is that the combination is slightly different from previous vintages with 90% cabernet sauvignon, 3% cabernet […]

Farr Rising Gamay 2022
$55.00This is a particularly smoky, earthen, tobacco-strewn edition of Farr’s Moorabool Valley gamay, the word ‘savouriness’ almost going without saying. It’s a dry, woodsy, leafy wine with a line of juicy red cherry-like fruit washing throughout, and personality at every turn. It’s also firm with tannin, in the most measured and uncompromising of ways. Tight, […]

Mullineux Granite Syrah 2020
$210.00The deep GRANITE soils on this Jakkalsfontein farm allow for deep root growth and a larger natural canopy. This is incredible for allowing the grapes to retain acidity and purity which ultimately leads to tight, yet fresh tannins and a more lifted perfume. Like all 3 Single Terroir Syrahs, this wine is 100% foot-crushed, whole […]

Carl Loewen Riesling ‘1896’ 2021
$175.00This is beautiful to drink now, but those things which really make it stand out in the crowd are only just beginning to reveal themselves.

Cantina della Stazione Barbera d’Alba DOC 2021

Hochkirch Villages Pinot Noir 2021
$50.00This is 100% estate fruit, 25% whole bunches were retained while the balance of the crop was destemmed.

Everything was pressed after 14 days into tank, and then gravity-fed […]
