Eva Fricke Rheingau Riesling Trocken 2021
$65.00“The 2021 Rheingau is a pure Riesling trocken with bright, ripe fruit and fine mineral stone as well as herbal aromas—pretty complex for a generic Rheingau Riesling from Kiedrich, Eltville, Erbach and Lorch. Lush and round but elegant, this is a fruity, juicy and very aromatic Riesling with mouth-filling texture and fine mineral grip on […]

A Rodda Triangle Block Chardonnay 2021
$90.00From a tiny patch of vines within Smith’s vineyard. More new wood here and longer time in barrel, so it’s essentially classically styled and not a ‘contemporary’ expression as the other chardonnays are. Beautifully pure aromas of spring jasmine, honeycomb, mandarin, yellow and white peach and very fine oak. Very deep, brooding, fleshy, a masterclass […]

Mullineux Old Vines White 2021

Savoury, waxy and focused, with engaging minerality, fine texture and flavours of pear, peach and citrus peel. Drink date: 2022-2027. 95 Points – Tim Atkin, MW, timatkin.com, […]

Christophe et Fils Chablis 1er Cru Mont de Milieu 2021
$98.00A terrific followup to the gorgeous 2020. Sleeker, silkier and more mineral, the 2021 nonetheless has a deep core of fleshy, pulpy fruit. High toned citrus, white peach, white flowers, sage and a dusting of wood spice. Bright, vivid flavours, at once so juicy, cut through and chiseled by cool acidity. Waters Wine Co […]

CRFT Arranmore Vineyard Chardonnay 2021
$50.00A chardonnay lovers chardonnay, and with a twist that can only be defined as unique. There’s a subtle peach skin and flavour that kicks through on the finish. In no way is the wine skinsy or textural, but the hint of peach skin might easily be missed within the swirl of rich, interwoven flavours. Cashew, […]

Bernard Defaix Chablis 2021

CRFT Blefari Vineyard Chardonnay 2021
$50.00Along with the Arranmore, the Blefari is at the pinnacle of Adelaide Hills Chardonnay. Lifted aromatics, cooler than the Arranmore, with lemons and limes, grapefruit, flint, green apple and pastry notes. Tight, coiled and intense with spice notes, sleek textured, searing acidity and strong notes of sage and bergamot. Green mango brings it all together […]

Eva Fricke Kiedrich Riesling Trocken 2021
$85.00“The raspberry, orange-blossom, jasmine and white-tea character suggests a wine that’s less sweet and structured than this is. Still very youthful, with serious tension between the slightly grainy tannins and crisp acidity and the lush elements of the wine. Long, very bright finish.” 93 points, jamessuckling.com “The Riesling trocken 2021 Kiedrich offers a fine yet […]

Fletcher C21 Langhe DOC Chardonnay 2021
$55.00Labelled as Fletcher, as half of the fruit is bought, the other from his own vineyard on the Bricco Capre. Classic chardonnay flavours, yet the shape and structure are all its own. Grapefruit, peach, jasmine, subtle oak notes and rock melon. Super intense palate, so bright, tight and coiled. The fruit is of the highest […]

Dr Loosen Erdener Treppchen Riesling Grosses Gewachs 2021
$100.00Loosen’s 2021 Erdener Treppchen GG Alte Reben is remarkably refined on the nose that exhibits a delicate and flinty-scented bright stone fruit and Riesling aroma. The palate is round and playful, almost silky and very elegant, leading to an intense and sustainably saline and tangy finish with fine grip and good tension. Surely one of […]

Bicknell FC Applecross Chardonnay 2021
$55.00From a 330m elevation vineyard in the Upper Yarra. Whole-bunched pressed to older puncheons. Natural fermentation and no mlf. A touch riper and more concentrated than last year’s version. Aromas of red apples and just-ripened orchard fruits with a little flint. Fans out nicely on the palate. Gently savoury and with a touch of grip […]

La Soufrandière Mâcon-Vinzelles Le Clos de Grand-Père 2021
$90.00Biodynamic. This comes from a very old, genuine Clos (walled vineyard) that sits on a very rocky, hard limestone bedrock that’s close to the surface and is believed to be an old Roman path. This vineyard is on the lower part of the Pouilly-Vinzelles slope and is therefore classed as Mâcon-Vinzelles. The site was purchased by […]

Thibaud Boudignon Anjou Blanc 2021
$100.00The Anjou Blanc is from old densely planted vines, rooted in shallow sand and schist soils. Aged for up to 18 months in 500L and Stockinger “cigar” barrels, 30% of which are new. This is certainly the estates signature style, if more approachable, fuller and rounder than the more aristocratic Savennieres. Clear, tender, transparent and […]

Fighting Gully Road Smiths Vineyard Chardonnay 2021
$85.00“Black label. A complex and compelling chardonnay. At its heart is a mineral, beeswax and slatey core that lays the foundation for the wine, contributing an effortless, natural balance. To that, the winemaker has brought ripe, citrus and stone fruits, introduced some spicy oak and a nougat-like texture. Brings both power and delicacy to the […]

Jonathan Didier Pabiot Pouilly Fumé Elisa 2021
$60.00We should start with the Elisa (previously named Prelude), a blend of material from young vines across the 15 hectares of estate vineyards. This is the most overtly fruit driven and high toned, indeed closer to the cliched notion of Sauvignon Blanc. Stainless steel ageing for between 8 to 12 months has gifted a rich […]

La Soufrandière Pouilly-Vinzelles 2021
$100.00Supremely complex as you would expect from such a venerated producer. Honey, spring jasmine, lime, grapefruit, honeydew, green apple, discreet oak and Jersey cream. Sumptuous, rich and tangy, fleshy and tingling. Utterly singular, with the energy and verve of riesling and decadence of chardonnay. Wonderful now, but even better in 7 or 8 years and […]

Falkenstein Niedermenniger Herrenberg Riesling Kabinett Trocken 2021

Juxtaposed Wait Vineyard Grenache 2021
$50.00Sumptuous grenache, with incredibly intense aromatics, perfectly pitched palate weight, balance and tension. There is a tangy sweetness to the hedge fruit compote; blackberry, blueberry, mulberry, plum and raspberry. Certainly darker and sweeter fruit than the Smart vineyard grenache and this is offset by savoury elements. Chocolate orange, fennel, baking spices and Jacaranda flower drop. […]

Domaine Gueguen Chablis 1er Cru Vaillons 2021
$100.00Slightly more reticent, but with time aromas of gardenia, jasmine, fresh, zest and preserved lemon and lime and grapefruit. Fleshier and more opulent than the Fourchaume, with greater weight and muscle. Softer and creamier, yet with typical Gueguen freshness and clarity. Dry extract and chew complete the picture of overall weight, presence and power without […]

Huet Vouvray Le Haut-Lieu Sec 2021
$90.00“This is a very fine, fragrant and floral Le Haut Lieu Sec. While delicate, the 2021 fills the mouth with a cloud of pure fruit reminiscent of violets, apple and nectarine skin. There’s a fine sinew that pulls the wine through on the finish. It can be approached in its youth but will go on […]

Lelie van Saron Chardonnay 2021
$60.00This low-alcohol (12.8%) 2021 Chardonnay has all that I seek in a fine Chardonnay: an attractively mineral nose with both tension and fruit as well as real focus and balance that promise well for the future. I gave it a score of 17 out of 20 and reckon it will continue to improve for up […]
